Our ABCE students performed skits on our morning news for our Science Words of the Week: physical attributes and force! Through creative mini-performances, they showed their peers how we observe an object's properties and how pushes and pulls make things move. It was a fun, memorable, and engaging way to make science vocabulary stick across the whole school! 📺💡
Take a look at our talented student actors powering through their roles! 📸💙 Ask your student tonight if they can give you an example of a physical attribute or force! 👇#4theT





Together, let's encourage our students to show up, be engaged, and make every minute count. Every day. Every class. Every opportunity.

Reagan from Mrs. Hughes’s first grade class earned a reward for her outstanding behavior, and she chose a super unique prize: Tech Time with our IT Professional, Mr. Kyle Gordon!
Reagan got a hands-on, behind-the-scenes look at how technology operates, learning about the different parts of a computer and how they all work together to make the machine run. Mr. Kyle was blown away by her curiosity and sharp questions!
Way to go, Reagan, for making great choices and aiming high! Take a look at our tech duo in action! 📸🧠⚡#4theT





Mrs. White’s 2nd graders teamed up for some hands-on math problem-solving. Working together, students used word problems, number lines, and hundred charts to crack the code on tricky counting patterns!
We love seeing our students collaborate, share their strategies, and cheer each other on as they master new math concepts. Take a look at our math minds at work! 📸🧠💡#4theT

For Sing Together Wednesday, share a favorite song, nursery rhyme or silly tune with a child. Singing helps children hear and play with sounds, words and rhythm—and makes literacy part of an everyday moment.
No perfect voice required. Just sing, smile and enjoy the moment together.

Georgia Reads Day launches Georgia Reads Week with one simple challenge: take a few minutes to read with a child or share a favorite story. As you read, ask, “What do you think will happen next?” One book and one moment together can help build stronger readers, families and communities.
Share your reading moment and invite someone else to join.

Behind every growing reader is an educator who encouraged one more page, introduced one more story and helped build one more moment of confidence.
This Georgia Reads Day, we celebrate Georgia’s teachers, media specialists and school leaders for creating classrooms where curiosity grows and reading comes to life. Thank you for helping students discover the knowledge, imagination and possibilities found in every book.
