If our walls could talk....

They would tell you about 1st graders working in partners to make a piece of art that shows the weather word they randomly chose. They would tell you about the collaboration and excitement of sharing ideas and creating something better together than they could have created alone.

Books and Art

They would whisper to you about the weather pictures and weather facts we marvel at and share after snack. They would tell you about all the weather words we add to the weather word cloud after we read books or have an excited discussion after a weather presentation.
Weather Words, Weather Art, Weather Books

They would tell you who gazes at words to help them write or read.
Word Wall
They would tell you who is having the crispy chicken, bagel or who brought lunch from home.

Lunch choice cups
They would tell you what time special is and lunch and recess. You would learn who is the messenger or the trash helper or the assistant and who has the week off.
Months, Daily Schedule, and Job Chart

They would tell you who looks at the visuals and follows the steps as we practice regrouping in both addition and subtraction.

They would tell you who lost a tooth this month or last or in October. You would know whose birthday is in June or July or all the other months.
Birthdays, Lost Teeth, and Calendar

If these walls could talk......

Essential Question: How does the learning environment effect the learning experience?
