🎥✨ Day of Code was a huge success at Hapeville Elementary! Students programmed robots, solved puzzles, and unlocked their inner tech superheroes. Check out this special report from one of my amazing 5th graders! #DayOfCode #HapevilleHawks #wherethemagichappens
This special report/reporter of Hawk Eye News was great! Check out this recap of our Day of Code! S/o to @TheBestEducator for putting this together! Also, s/o to our Vanguard team for making a vision become reality! @teacherneionie @jasonjstamper @FCSVanguard

NOTE: No recess was harmed in the making of this bluesy lesson! 😅🎶 Last week, we dove into the blues to practice figurative language. The excitement was real—hands shot up, voices sang out, and creativity flowed! 🎤✨ #hapevilleelementary #wherethemagichappens @DrCSLPadgett

🦕🕷️ Our 5th grade #HapevilleHawks had a blast at the Fernbank Museum! From exploring spider exhibits to strolling through nature trails and diving into Georgia's history, every moment was a learning adventure! 🌿 #FieldTripFun @DrCSLPadgett @kellymastro @HesJshaw

It’s been over a decade, and I’m still using the same #WholeBrainTeaching rules. Students also get to propose “bills” and vote to add new rules if needed. Some classes have added a few extra, but the core has been the same. #teachertwitter #Year14

The way the kids stayed engaged! This is what teaching is! And it happened across multiple classes for the same activity #access @TheBestEducator @DrTamaraCandis @kellymastro

🥪✏️ Loved having our students explore the importance of clear and detailed writing in today's PB&J sandwich-making lesson! 📝 Thanks, @DrCSLPadgett, for capturing the fun and learning in action! 📸 #hapevillehawks
Today we had the pleasure of coming into @TheBestEducator class as he had Ss explain steps to making a PB&J sandwich. Ss quickly learned based on their writing the importance of adding details and being clear because of what can happen! Thank you 4 making the lesson come to life
