Can chocolate make you smarter? 🍫🕵️
Students become credibility detectives—evaluating sources, evidence, and authorship in a fun, focused bellringer.
Critical thinking made concrete.

🎨🏺 Our 3rd graders turned Picasso’s Creative Workshop into an Ancient Roman studio as they explored CKLA Unit 4. They decorated pottery, creating pieces that reflect their own stories. A creative adventure full of proud smiles. 💛🐎

I worry about schools that choose to adopt 1/2 of #CKLA. If we only do Knowledge & skip Skills in favor of a different “phonics program” simply bc we already know it, kids miss 1/2 the writing instruction & opportunities to read rich skills-aligned texts. This is a G1 example:
Same myth. One twist. Totally new thinking. ⚡
Students retell a Greek myth by changing only the gift—analyzing cause, effect, and theme along the way.
Short, focused, and standards-aligned.

The Compound Creator Challenge guides learners through a quick activity where they build imaginary compounds, predict properties, and justify their thinking using metals vs. nonmetals.
Creative science. Real reasoning. 🚀 @GetSchoolAI

🐾✨ 3rd graders celebrated the end of their CKLA Animal Classification unit with an in-house field trip from @zootouevent! They explored amazing animals up close, asked curious questions, and had the best hands-on learning experience.

Teacher: “Do you remember this guy from 1st grade? We are starting a new book today and we get to learn from Rattenborough again!”
Students: “Yesssss!” “Awwww! I like him!” “Woo-hoo!”
These 3rd graders are excited to meet Rattenborough again. Let’s read and write! #CKLA
We loved sharing our learning with our @randolphelementary.bsky.social 3rd grade friends! Love that our @amplify #CKLA astronomy units aligned so we could learn new facts.🪐🌍☀️🌘 ✨ #communicators #FirstGradeRocks

For the past few years I've been learning more about how the brain learns, and I'm being forced to grapple a bit with my previous held beliefs - specifically around direct, explicit instruction. I'm using #CKLA for the first time, and wow! My students are engaged and learning A LOT! #sunchat
Read every night with your child! It makes a huge difference. My dude loves history. Now that my class has finished the middle ages unit of #CKLA , I brought a book home to read with him at bedtime. Yeah, it's THAT good.

This is how we kick off the Middle Ages unit in 4th grade #CKLA. Students were so excited about entering through the drawbridge 😆

A cross-functional approach is always better than narrowly focused 'test prep'—from elementary reading in Tennessee under a #CKLA curriculum to elite sports à la @DavidEpstein's "Range."
