Congratulations to our 4th grade student, Emerson, (in @mrsplunkert’s class) for being recognized as a Silver Pen Award recipient for her outstanding writing. “Thank you” to Lost Mtn. Kiwanis for recognizing these great writers. We’re proud of you, Emerson!
What a beautiful night of spoken words! Cobb County's first Elementary Poetry Slam! Thank you @techyteacher25 for going along on this journey with me! @lester_laminack - it was such a gift to hear you in person! My kids were SO excited! @ARTwithJessica @FordEScobb
Getting ready for a Cobb County Schools' FIRST Elementary Poetry Slam- a culmination of months of work on poetry writing! Mr. Funn helped us work on our speaking and gave us strategies to help us with our performance. @alliancetheatre @ARTwithJessica @FordEScobb @techyteacher25
@lester_laminack - I have learned so much from you during this process! Thank you! ♥️✏️♥️
A little chicken observation as the chickens spend their second week in the outdoor run. Apparently they love mint, are interested in Italian parsley, but not liking the rosemary 🌿Plants were planted with @kara_kalra in EE! @FordEScobb @STEMcobb

Instead of forcing students to commit to an answer they might not be certain of, teach them how language to under-commit.
This encourages risk taking and gives them an "out" if their answer isn't correct. #HackingQs
Teachers in the coop as we get our 2-month-old chickies acclimated to their outdoor home! @FordEScobb @STEMcobb @debbie_broadnax @KappelShay @MeghanAPFord
When you hear one say, "There's definitely imagery, and I think the metaphor in this stanza is an example of that imagery," you know poetry analysis is going well ♥️ #poetry #langstonhughes @FordEScobb @Ford4th @debbie_broadnax @KappelShay @MeghanAPFord
Talking about a CERT- chicken excrement retrieval tool! We're trying to solve the problem of chicken manure becoming part of our water cycle. We are designing ways to collect it and add the manure to our compost bin and 5th grade's Victory Gardens! @FordEScobb @STEMcobb #STEMEd
Math fun with fractions! Students created their own comparing fractions word problems as task cards for our classmates to solve! We made our answer keys so kids can self-check, too :) @CobbMathDept @FordEScobb @debbie_broadnax @KappelShay
