The #BestFourthGradersInTheDistrict used #Mentimeter to report their areas of weakness based on their own data. It’s great when the students do the lesson planning for us! #DataDriven #WinTimeAllTheTime #BigRoomBigGoals #MathIsFun @jcpsInnovation


We love a good theme, and today it’s all about the #KentuckyDerby. Checkout their votes for Saturday’s winners before you place your bets! Thanks @Mentimeter and @PlayBlooket @jcpsInnovation #JCPSDigIn

The #BestFourthGradersInTheDistrict choose how they can be most engaged in the work! They know their goals and how they learn best! #DataDriven #GoalCrushers @jcpsInnovation #JCPSJourneyToSuccess


Our #MineCraft themed Bingo game to review math standards was a hit! Student engagement was high! #BestFourthGradersInTheDistrict #DataDriven #Bingo #ITeachMath #MathIsFun
The #BestFourthGradersInTheDistrict loved reviewing symmetry, area, and perimeter. They are so creative!

We love Peardeck! We can see student progress in real time. Students get immediate feedback with explanations from AI! They can track their progress and see what standards they need more practice on! Find ready made assessments! #DataDriven #BigRoomBigGoals #ITeachMath #MathIsFun

The #BestFourthGradersInTheDistrict LOVE #Blooket for fun practice and a quick way to assess progress. We can intervene and extend based on their data. #JCPSDigIn @JCPSDigIn




Need an engaging review game? The #BestFourthGradersInTheDistrict loved this! The post-its reveal directions that impact team scores like +10 points, -20 points, double your points, divide your points by 2, give 30 points to the opposite team etc. The video shows how it works!
The #BestFourthGradersInTheDistrict are working HARD on their goals! They are excited to start live scoring next week! #DataDriven #Goals #JCPSJourneyToSuccess

Big day for this Barker! She’s a home-grown Wheeler Wildcat with a strong foundation! She will do great things next year in middle school! #BackpackDefense #JCPSJourneyToSuccess #QualityWork @JCPS_CAO

👏 👏 👏
Feeling blessed to receive the @JCPSKY Academic Innovator Award today! I’m truly living my dream working with @jcpsK12math and @clryan25 at @CrosbyMiddle #ThePlaceToBe
