A huge thank you to @MsKrippnerAPS for ordering these amazing geodes for every 5th grader! To celebrate the end of our Changing Earth Unit, everyone got to (safely) break open their very own geode! #RocksRock @CampbellAPS

5th Graders @CampbellAPS have been engaged in historical fiction book clubs using SEM-R bookmarks and reading strategies to help guide each of their discussions. @APSGifted @davitt45 @UConnGifted @ELeducation

Nothing like an Outdoor Community Meeting to make a Friday even better! @CampbellAPS @ThinkCampbell

Student leaders from the Community Meeting Crew @CampbellAPS read to PreK students as we celebrated Read Across America Day! @ELeducation @APSGifted @MsKrippnerAPS @OConnor4_5 @APSLiteracy

My favorite tradition for Read Across America Day is buddy reading with younger students. It’s even better when you get to do it in your pajamas! Thank you to @Mshoran3rd and her 2nd graders for reading with us today! @CampbellAPS

Gr 5 self-portrait linoleum prints are starting to show up on the drying rack. We are super excited. #printmaking #lightandshadow #elementaryart #fifthgrade #blockprints @APSVaSchoolBd @APSVirginia @APSArts @APSArtsEd @CampbellAPS

When the 5th graders were in k/1! Crazy hair day….

We had such an awesome turnout for our Identity Showcase! Stations around the room displayed all the different activities and projects students completed throughout their expedition. There were also interactive stations so everyone could participate! @CampbellAPS @ThinkCampbell

Thank you so much to all the friends and family that came to our 5th grade expedition showcase on identity! Students were so proud showing off all their hard work and expressing their identities to such an attentive audience! @CampbellAPS @ELeducation @ThinkCampbell

As part of our Identity Expedition, our 5th graders wrote poems about themselves. Mr. Regie led each class in a homeroom poetry slam where every student performed their poem to an audience. Tomorrow, certain students will compete in a grade level poetry competition! @CampbellAPS

These scholarly gentlemen have started their own chess tournament and always play during free time! @CampbellAPS

Winter music showcase!

Mr. Regie, our guest poet, has been leading poetry workshops to get us prepared for our 5th grade poetry slam next week! These students have been working hard on writing and performing their amazing pieces and can’t wait to share them! @CampbellAPS

During our Schoolwide Community Meeting today @CampbellAPS, Zero the Hero and his assistants helped us celebrate the 90th Day of School! @APSMath @davitt45 @APSGifted
