All students in our school district as well as other children/families in the community have easy access to all of the resources. ]]> 2020-07-23 17:58:38 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonmmiller/itsourtimetoshine/wish/661223611 It's the Little Things... cstrish https://padlet.com/shannonmmiller/itsourtimetoshine/wish/661303898 It seems small, but I am glad I was able to support my colleagues by offering encouragement. That is all they really needed. Often they had more know-how than they realized, but they were afraid to jump in. It's like they just needed someone to remind them, "You got this!"

I've recently rejoined the practice of checking out this tremendous resource. Especially love the Google Earth Projects! My 4th graders are going to LOVE building their own presentations using this resource.

Then they would compare notes on what birds they could hear and they found they were hearing the same birds. I added drawing with the help from a Californian, JohnMuirLaws. He has great freebies to download and get your drawing more scientifically accurate. It was an awesome spring! yalexander https://padlet.com/shannonmmiller/itsourtimetoshine/wish/661305318 2020-07-23 20:08:16 UTC https://padlet.com/shannonmmiller/itsourtimetoshine/wish/661305318 6th Grade Social Studies Teacher.
