Collaboration
Students
Door Decorating
I had students take a survey on Google Forms, explaining the types of books they liked. Based on the answer we came up with the theme for our door. Some students stay for recess to create the items and letter. It was AWESOME!
We are Egg-cellent!!!
Before AIMS, I had students write something that they were excellent at and write it on the egg. Many of my students have excellent talents.
Walking Gallery
Students create stories on a website. They walked around to each table to share their stories. Here are a few of the students listen to another explaining his story.
Parents
Google Voice
I use Google Voice to help me to communicate with parents easily. I use it to call and text parents about student behavior and performance, inform them of upcoming events or deadlines, or follow up on absences.
Homework Cover Sheet
Each week as a team we create two homework packets. The cover sheet for the homework packets informs parents of up coming events, items that are due, or more. This helps the parents stay informed on what we are doing in fourth grade.

Community
Scholastic Reading Club
Each month I encourage students to order books through Scholastic. This will help my students increase their at home library.
Robotics
This year I had the privilege of being apart of the robotics team. The team was able to go to state. Even though we didn't go to world, the students were able to experience the fun of competition.
