Reading aloud to students targets students who learn audially, and research shows that students who are read aloud to are more motivated to read.
Claremont 2nd grade students in Mrs. Johnston's class listen to a read aloud.

On this #CPSTechTipTuesday, I will demonstrate how you can use Google Sheets to randomize a class list to call on students or create random groups within the classroom. We will discuss how to create the list, randomize it, and give individuals a link to download a copy of a pre-created sheet to randomize the students in their classes.

📚 THANK YOUR LIBRARIAN TODAY 📚
“A library is a good place to go when you feel unhappy, for there, in a book, you may find encouragement and comfort. A library is a good place to go when you feel bewildered or undecided, for there, in a book, you may have your question answered. Books are good company, in sad times and happy times, for books are people - people who have managed to stay alive by hiding between the covers of a book."
[Letters of Note; Troy (MI, USA) Public Library, 1971]”
― E.B. White
It's National Library Workers Day and we can't think of any better way to celebrate than to visit your school librarian and check out a book. I know they will have a recommendation for whatever you want to feel between the pages of a good book.

🚶♀️🚶♂️Engaging the kinesthetic and visual learner while teaching math takes a creative approach.
The 5th grade math class at Roosa got busy plotting points on a coordinate plane. Students were able to draw two numbers, an X coordinate and a Y coordinate. They started at the origin (0,0) and then plotted themselves by physically moving to the point on the grid on the floor.

🎈5th Grade students made Hot Air Balloons while finishing up their matter unit, learning the hot air density. After the instructions were given and utilizing technology to observe the process, they independently created their hot air balloons.
Not only did they get a lesson on matter but the importance of reading and following directions.

📢📢 BREAKING NEWS 📢📢
WRJH was just presented with their GE MODEL SCHOOL status!!!
This prestigious award gives creditability to quality teachers, quality instruction, quality classroom management and more. It is a long rigorous process designed to raise expectations across the board.
Great Expectations (GE) Methodology is grounded in six basic tenets- All Children Can Learn, Building Self Esteem, Climate of Mutual Respect, High Expectations, Teacher Attitude and Responsibility, and Teacher Knowledge and Skill. The staff attends training sessions where they are immersed in the research-based 17 Classroom Practices to be an effective teacher. Each of the 17 practices is examined through the lens of developing a Culture of Respect and promoting Academic Excellence. Classroom management is anchored in the GE 8 Expectations. The 36 Life Principles promote students of character. GE Methodology provides a blue print to be an exemplary educator. With full implementation of Great Expectations Methodology, academic performance and attendance go up and discipline referrals go down.
Congratulations, WRJH staff and administrators, for your dedication to your students, community, yourself, and the professionalism of teaching.
