We could see how teachers can start scaffolding writing content since lower grades and build up their writing skills be providing multiple opportunities for them to write. It was interesting to see their journals and activities.

From our group we discussed how the process of writing needs to be more focused on than the product. When students take their time focusing on brainstorming and planning then they will have a better rough draft overall. Revising and editing are also very important steps. When students take time on each of these steps they are more likely to be better writers.

Amazing presentations from my colleagues. I loved all the graphic organizers that my colleagues shared. I just need to steal them. I would like to observe 4th grade writing soon.

Good to discuss what other teachers are doing.  Taking a timeline to a BME is a logical step in teaching sequencing.  And from that, a summary can be produced.  Very systematic and gives students a framework from which to develop a good summary.

Teach kids how to use a thesaurus! and incorporate daily oral language lessons.

# data[].attributes.body
I will implement what Boeckman and Moran presented about teaching students to mark answers with bullseye instead of question mark and to highlight fact and opinion in a reading passage

# data[].attributes.body
We need more thesaurus skills - let's enhance these kids' vocabulary! It's nice to see the struggles of the lower grades - the struggle of keeping the students interested in writing. I'm going to implement DOL everyday to solidify revising and editing skills.

# data[].attributes.body
Incorporate the use of dictionary and thesaurus skills. Incorporate writing into the different disciplines. Let students journal for fun, to teach love of writing.

I loved hearing from all the grade levels and what they are doing in their classrooms. Take away: trying 4 paragraphs not 5, editing in the morning as a DOL, Daily journal writing.  Great teachers!

I learned to use a tree map to help students better understand sequencing of story. I also liked hearing about using concrete visuals for comparing and contrasting.

# data[].attributes.body
I came away with ideas for using  science and social studies lessons to incorporate expository writing.
I edit and revise sentences every morning with a Daily Fix It and I learned that the Write Source is a good source for this objective.

Liked the wonderful thoughts that were presented on Fact and Opinion by Mrs Pinedo. Liked what Mrs Schwalbe's does on compare and contrast-gave great insights on how to present and delve deeper for students greater understanding.

# data[].attributes.body
love the tips I'm hearing from my collegues

# data[].attributes.body
I will implement using open ended questions on passages. This will allow students to find answers without just picking and not thinking about it.

I learned about a great way to teach summarizing... "Tree Map" . Also I saw a great foldable to teach compare and contrast.

I learned a good way to strengthen student’s ability to identify theme: give them a theme and have them construct a story that conveys it.

This vertical alignment group session was very helpful. I learned from the other grade levels. Everyone has great ideas and strategies they are currently using. I will be using some of the strategies in my classroom.

# data[].attributes.body
Bullseye strategy vs Question mark strategy. Rather than have students place a ? by the answer choice they think is correct, have the students draw a bullseye next to the questions they are confident about.

# data[].attributes.body
Helpful to speak to other grade levels and see what strategies other teachers use to teach the same concept. I like the compare and contrast activity that Mrs. Schwalbe shared out, and that she reinforces using complete sentences in their response.

Way to go in poetry  for students to sense the poetry concept.
Never too late to work with side words and phonological awareness.

It's a great idea to push your struggling readers to gain fluency through extra practice and assessments on sight words.

I loved hearing from upper grades what they need from my 2nd graders coming into 3rd, continuing into 4th, etc. on Math specifically. I can now focus on more specific things our campus/teachers really need instead of scrambling through CF.

# data[].attributes.body
Mrs. Montalvo gave great insight on number sense. Digits make numbers. For example “what number is in the hundredths place?” Stamina drill will be added to our daily practice.

Always use correct math vocabulary!!!

Lot's of great ideas from Math group 2.  Great job.
Learned different strategies for vocabulary building, mental math, fractions and much more. Thank you

Beginning/Middle/End chart is a great tool to use for sequencing.

This was very helpful to see what students were struggling with across the board and have a good conversation about how we address these issues across grade level.

This was super helpful! Especially since I am brand new to this content area! Plus I can still keep the reading component in Math!

Struggling readers may
need extra practice with sight words to get to where they need to be.

This was very helpful allowing us to meet with other teachers. We can learn a lot from each other!  I like knowing that my peer teachers are sharing the same strengths and concerns as me!  My peers shared some great strategies!

Vertical alignment from 4th grade that helped 3rd grade growth was the consistent use of a Reference Sheet with a focus on mental math. I also enjoyed Moore 4th grade use of "Real World/Fraction World."
