Hope to see you shortly for the Art Show!
More 3rd & 4th grade fun at Warsaw Pioneer Days!
Students were finishing an author's study about Kevin Henkes in Mrs. Shoop's class today. Then, they dove right into guiding reading groups and independent reading activities. Students are always excited to go to Mrs. Shoop's reading table! There were amazing conversations happening there! She has also been gradually releasing some responsibility to students as they are preparing for 3rd grade....some students were reading independently and others were involved in a little book club! There is so much focus and importance placed on literacy in our 2nd grade classrooms! No wonder our reading scores keep increasing!
More pics from Warsaw Pioneer Days! What a GR8 field trip for our 3rd and 4th graders!
Who holds students to high expectations?
Who motivates students with friendly competition? Who promotes students to encourage their peers by modeling encouraging and uplifting words?
Who enables students to share their thinking and provides excellent modeling and guided practice? Who makes sure to differentiate for her students in order to help all students feel successful? Who rewards students with positive feedback and sometimes an M&M?.........Miss Treuner! She is not the only teacher doing these GR8 things, but all of these things were observed in her classroom today! It's not summer time yet! We are finishing strong in 2nd grade!
Here is the first batch of field trip pics to Warsaw Pioneer Days! It looks like Mrs. Thompson's class had a GR8 time!
