GMS teacher, Ms. Lawrence, challenged her students with fractional representations and thinking!! They loved seeing fractions in a different way.

Look at the faces of these scientists and engineers! Arition’s 4th graders had a great time learning about electricity and energy by building open and closed circuits! ⚡️💡 They worked together to connect their circuits, test them out, and figure out what was happening when the circuit was complete or incomplete. Hands-on science makes learning so much more fun!

Region 11 Coaching Academy!

The conversations were rich, the thinking was sharp, and the growth was real! AMSTI

The verdict is in!!! What an incredible 3 days at the Region 11 Math Coaching Academy!
We dug deep into what really moves the needle for both students and coaches:

🧮 Making math more engaging and relevant for elementary students through real-world connections
🧮 Making professional development better (and more meaningful)
🧮 Digging deeper into math data so we can turn numbers into action

⭐️One of the highlights⭐️

👨🏽‍⚖️Coaches stepped into a high-stakes scenario where they had to convince a panel of “math coach judges” of their role and impact — all grounded in data and the Alabama Coaching Framework.

The conversations were rich, the thinking was sharp, and the growth was real!

Grateful for this powerful community of math coaches who show up ready to learn, lead, and lift student achievement across Region 11.
Here’s to stronger coaching, stronger teachers, and stronger math outcomes for our students!💪🏼

🧬 Ploidy?! Husbandry?? 🧬

Those were just a couple of our favorite new words this past week at our 7th-grade training, Genes and Molecular Machines. These teachers powered through four days of hands-on learning while investigating genetic concepts. They were such a fun group to work with, and we know they are going to do great things!
