Bookmarked for my commute. @ClassroomD4 is probably one of the best teachers in the country and a huge role model for me.

How did my students approach creating a Dolan Class Project? They wrote a Readers Theater script, of course. (And they really did write the entire thing.) Vote for them by clicking this link cont.st/vBTqLR_dpcqLQP?g=1

I've been implementing Reader's Theatre with my 4th graders this year using resources from @ClassroomD4.
Next on the Knowledge-Building for Teachers Series: Reading Fluency Fluency is one of my favorite parts of literacy to teach. It creates a culture where students are excited to be expressive when they read out loud.

We finished filming today for the @DolanAutoGroup Class Project. With a script written entirely by #Hunsberger #5thGraders, the students hope to secure enough funding for a newscast.
