Civics honing in on discerning news, opinion, entertainment & advertising. This was supposed to be the foundation of a media bias lesson, but it's become the whole lesson. Small steps w/ authentic content being shared. @BoykinBryan @Miranda4APS @APSLibrarians @APSsocstudies

6th grade lunch. The students love to read in the windows after they've eaten in the cafeteria. Full house almost every day. #wmsreads @BoykinBryan @wmspta_wolves @APSLibrarians @APSVaSchoolBd

Civics students learning about misrepresentation & manipulation & practicing gathering evidence online to support their conclusions. Overheard as they research: debate about reliable websites. @BoykinBryan @wmspta_wolves @APSLibrarians @APSVaSchoolBd @VATeacher32 @APSsocstudies

Civics students determining if select photos are taken out of context by doing searches online. One student, "This is too hard." Yes, this is challenging, but with practice & resilience, it will get easier! @BoykinBryan @APSLibrarians @wmspta_wolves @APSsocstudies #BeConsistent

Developing resiliency when doing research is a hard concept to teach - students must do the work & experience the process. Working with 7th gr science this week at the beginning of their science projects. #wmsresearches @BoykinBryan @APSLibrarians @APSscience @APSVaSchoolBd

Many students were fascinated listening to Ms. Scott talk about Candy J. Cooper's narrative nonfiction book Shackled during orientation. It was checked out 1st period, so she also described our book hold/request process. #wmsreads @BoykinBryan @APSLibrarians @wmspta_wolves
