Students became the teacher this week! They chose topics they’re passionate about for their Expert Experience Project, built presentations using nonfiction text structures, and taught their classmates. We learned a ton of new things from each other! Proud of them! 🔎📝

We brought figurative language to life for Idiom Day! From “raining cats and dogs” to “made of money,” they dressed up to show off their creativity and understanding of idioms. A fun way to make language come alive! 💬✨

Our 1st Grade Buddies teamed up for a festive fall activity! Students created their own paper jack-o’-lanterns, shared their favorite Halloween candy and past costumes, and practiced conversation starters. It was a great mix of creativity, collaboration, and community! 👻🍬

Week 1 was all about growth mindset, the power of yet, and goal setting! Students chose a quote and illustrated what it meant to them. Loved seeing their creativity shine and hearing their thoughtful discussions. 🌟 #GrowthMindset

We’ve been answering our essential question, “what makes a great heart, literally”? From looking at our circulatory system, to seeing our pulse, to making 3D heart diagrams, to a cardiologist special guest! 🫀

Looking for clues! Students used their prior knowledge and read different receipts to make inferences about what the buyer may be making or doing based on the items. As a challenge, students added additional items that would fit with the receipt. @WestCler #WCconnects 🔍
