First day of summer vacation, and I get to look at my beautiful flowers from one of my students. Sigh, summer is always bittersweet. I love vacation, but I miss my students. #teacherproblems #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #endofschool #studentlove Our fifth grade end of the year field trip to a water park produced some really great jumping shots. Hello, quick reflexes. #waterpark #bestfieldtripever #endofschool #fifthgrade #iteachfifth #goodbyeelementaryschool One week ago I was with @robyngbernecker and @monickiy at the beautiful @olbrichgardens in #madisonwi. Love these colors. #summertime #garden #memorialdayweekend #friendsarefamily It's my favorite musical! Seeing it live @austinplayhouse. #datenight #musicaltheatre #guysanddolls #luckbealady #austintx We made our first attempt at the Compliments Project. Each student wrote one compliment for each of their classmates. Then, each person gets to see what their classmates are saying about them. It's so fun to watch their faces. There is a lot of smiling. Thanks for introducing this idea to me, @cultofpedagogy. A good idea for the end of the year. #endofschool #iteachfifth #complimentsproject #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers I read this book as an introduction to our line of inquiry on equality and equity around human rights. This is a deceptively simple story about a child wondering what life would be like in a different place. War, homelessness, hunger, and child labor are all discussed. After reading, each student reflected on how the book relates to human rights. As usual, their insights were thoughtful and reflective. #unitofinquiry #ibpyp #humanrights #iteachfifth #readaloud #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers Another great @mysterysci lesson. The class has shown interest in landslides and floods and how they impact people around the world. We started by brainstorming ideas of how to protect a house that is in a landslide-prone area. I loved that the longer the discussion went on, the more diversity appeared in the ideas they shared. In groups, they then chose the best ideas to make a plan to save this house. #whoweare #ibpyp #studentledinquiry #brainstorm #science #iteachfifth #iteach5th #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers We spent the first week of our human rights unit looking at different types of human rights and what they look like throughout history and all over the world. Today, we wrote some definitions and examples of human rights. We'll add to this throughout our unit. #unitofinquiry #ibpyp #whoweare #humanrights #iteachfifth #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers
