Sight Word Scanning


This has been an exciting week! I tried something new, which made me a little nervous, but I am so happy with the results. :)

Sight word QR scanning! It was really simple and very effective for my students. I found these QR codes and printed and laminated them. During word work, the students used an iPad to scan the QR code. After scanning, a sentence popped up, which they had to read. I also had the students write the sight word down for extended practice. Then, they continued scanning the different QR codes, repeating the process. 

I was so happy all my students were able to complete the activity and really enjoyed scanning the sight words. What a great learning experience!

Schools of Rock!

Friday was our district's 5th annual Schools of Rock Show. This is where each school preforms a dance to compete with all other schools in the district. It can get competitive, but it is all for a good cause. This year we had a lot of fun! It was clear that everyone worked really hard and brought their best.

Here is Pleasant Ridge's School of Rock performance. Enjoy! :)
