Boy-mom, teacher. I am sort of like Punky Brewster, Mary Poppins, Cruella, and Hermione Granger rolled into one unique hot mess express.

Does anyone know why archived Google Classrooms would just disappear? #googleclassroom

#scienceofreading #sor If you had to pick a textbook for reading, spelling, & phonics, what would you choose and why? (3rd Grade, please) I want the resources you like the most that are really SOR aligned or as close as I can get. (Obviously, I’ll have to supplement.)

@TerrillCharming Don’t come to NJ!! This state will bleed you dry!!!

Favorite educational podcast? Not looking for the funny ones. Looking for quality PD to listen to in the car. I have so many that I enjoy! I particularly like ones on literacy, organization, scheduling, mindset, and off-the-wall creativity. I’ll start: The Stellar Teacher.

@unprocast Yes!!!!!!!!

[Dana J @3rdGradeBrigade]

@unprocast Hahaha!

[Dana J @3rdGradeBrigade]

@unprocast Bless your heart! Let’s add some more good things- No pumping our own gas, pizza, bagels, beaches, style, and allll the good looking people.

[Dana J @3rdGradeBrigade]

@busymom_74 Amazing, for sure!

[Dana J @3rdGradeBrigade]

@GulshanK2 Fair and valid points. I look at it and think: Books are free. Libraries offer access to everyone, wealthy and otherwise. Books can take us anywhere regardless of who we are or what label society likes to slap on us.

A friend sent this to me. I hate it.

If they wanted to stop gun violence they could. So do it already. Every decision-maker in this country should be forced to do an active shooter drill with children. Enough is enough.

@NicholasFerroni Teaching third grade is saying, “WHAT is that smell?” and then discovering someone’s hot lunch from last week shoved and rotting in a cubby…every single day until the last day of school . #teachermadlibs 🤢📕🍎

@MissNikkiIn5th @ehanford So, she added some “phonics” into her program. She still isn’t grasping the Science of Reading. I’d like to see what “phonics” means to her.

[Dana J @3rdGradeBrigade]

@GaleMorrisonEd @MissNikkiIn5th @ehanford Agree!!

@unprocast Don’t forget nice big choc chip cookies (Costco) so they can make ice-cream sandwiches.

[Dana J @3rdGradeBrigade]

@unprocast Vanilla, Choc, Strawberry, Cookie Dough, Rocky Road, Mint Choc Chip will be your basics. Then, add some different flavors / odd ones that the teens will get a kick out of. If you’re doing an ice-cream sundae party, you MUST go all out. Don’t forget Magic Shell & toppings.

@TerrillCharming Okay….now, where does Beyoncé stand??
