4th grade students turned back time to their nursery rhyme days & read Humpty Dumpty. Fast forward to 4th grade, we read After the Fall: How Humpty Dumpty Got Back Up Again. Students planned & designed a chair to safely sit on the wall, and offered some advice for Humpty Dumpty.
3K students are celebrating springtime by reading fiction and non-fiction books about spring as well as planting wheatgrass! Last Monday, we planted wheatgrass. Today, they observed and logged how much it grew! It grew past the houses and fences they made! #GrowYourOwn
We “Read Across America with Women in History.” 1st graders read about Simone Biles, & wrote something that was difficult for them to do. 5th graders wrote about a woman from their personal life & researched a woman that has made a positive contribution to society. #D31Reads
“Hoppy” Leap Year! 🐸 Our Pre-K students read about frogs & created their own frogs following step-by-step directions. Our Kindergartners added facts about frogs to their drawings. Our 4th graders used databases to research animals that leap to celebrate #LeapYear!
Thank you to everyone who made our #WorldReadAloudDay and #BlackHistoryMonth celebrations memorable!
After reading about Chhouk, the elephant with a prosthetic foot in The Elephant’s New Shoe: A True Rescue Story by Laurel Neme, students completed their Animal Care Card and created a prosthetic for their animal using Play-Doh! @DrMarionWilson @CChavezD31 @D31DSPalton @CSD31SI
First Graders used radial symmetry to create their Mexican inspired Folk Art! @CSD31SI @CChavezD31 @DrMarionWilson
Thank you to @JesusTrejo for visiting our school & sharing your story with us! The students loved how your story depicts your upbringing helping your landscaper dad on Saturdays! Your story inspired our students to write from the heart! @DrMarionWilson @CChavezD31 @CSD31SI
We are learning about animals that hatch from eggs! 🥚 We went on an egg hunt, “hatched” our eggs, and then used @CapstonePub to research our animal! 🐣 @DrMarionWilson @CChavezD31 @CSD31SI
Collaborating with the tech teacher has led to a STEM filled 🏀 week! As #MarchMadness week concludes, we will leave you with the following quote from Michael Jordan, “You must expect great things of yourself before you can do them.” @DrMarionWilson @CChavezD31 @CSD31SI
Pigeon, we will ride the roller coaster with you! Kindergarten and first grade students predicted what will happen in the story, and then drew themselves riding the roller coaster with Pigeon! @The_Pigeon @DrMarionWilson @CChavezD31 @CSD31SI
We celebrated #ReadAcrossAmerica with the families of PS18! Reading aloud helps improve information processing skills, vocabulary, comprehension, promotes discussions, & is the basis for building on critical thinking skills. @DrMarionWilson @CChavezD31 @CSD31SI @Sims4Community

In collaboration with the math teacher, yesterday we celebrated the 100th Day of School! We designed capes, hats, glasses from “gray hairs,” and listed all the things we have been told 100 times! @DrMarionWilson @CChavezD31 @CSD31SI
