Learning to login with LONG Lexia usernames and passwords is an important skill to practice in Kindergarten. @AVGrasshoppers @TeamAltaVista #usdlearns
We all need a body/brain break, especially if we’re a #TeamAltaVista kindergartener. Go Noodle videos are the perfect movement exercise to squeeze in after Word Work and before Art Vistas. @TeamAltaVista #Usdlearns
Music @ Alta Vista with Mr. Kevin. Thanks to AV Home & School Club for supporting visual and performing arts for our students. @TeamAltaVista #usdlearns

How do you finish up Math centers? #TeamAltaVista uses a Go Noodle Math Marathon video. Math + Movement = Learning. @TeamAltaVista #usdlearns
Enjoying an afternoon with Mrs. Yates’ first graders during Math centers. Lots of learning and collaboration. A favorite activity was using dominoes to match numbers. It’s a lot more fun when we work together. #TeamAltaVista #usdlearns

In second grade, #TeamAltaVista is using Owl Moon by @JaneYolen to teach author’s voice to our young writers. Readers become writers. #mrshaughney #usdlearns @TeamAltaVista
An essential part of Common Core Mathematics is individualized learning. #TeamAltaVista does it right! Flipped learning - video lessons at home, whole class review & instruction, small group learning & individualized practice. #FifthGradeMath #usdlearns @missriley_21
