We are celebrating National AG week by reading Full of Beans: Henry Ford Grows A Car by Peggy Thomas generously provided by the Texas Farm Bureau. Thank you for the neat book!

The kids were skeptical about growing a car!

Germany teaches their history without glorifying (Nazi) murderers, traitors, racists, and bigots with public monuments. Come on, America, we can do it, too.

[Dani Smith @DaniSmithTeach]

This is wonderful! Thank you! ❤️

I used this in class with my fourth graders this week. Was a useful opportunity to define terms for them, address worries, and show them what they CAN control (hand hygiene, self care, cough cover). Plus, shared reading lesson about graphic text.

Last week, NPR published a comic geared toward explaining the coronavirus to kids.

We've learned the comic has been translated into multiple languages — and is finding an audience in schools and libraries across the country.

Looking forward to using DoInk for a video with my fourth graders. #techyTEKS #research #inquiry

Thanks to the support of my family and my entire learning community, I was selected as both my campus teacher of the year and my district elementary teacher of the year. None of us can do this job alone, and I am humbled and proud to represent my colleagues.

I told @VanessaR_Holmes when she challenged me to do this that I wouldn’t follow the rules. Maybe she will regret challenging me to do things on the internet?

[Dani Smith @DaniSmithTeach]

I’ve been challenged by my “dear friend” @VanessaR_Holmes to post pics of my favorite books for seven days and challenge someone too, or something. I’m bad at challenges. But I love books. Here’s one now.

[Dani Smith @DaniSmithTeach]

And seven. Not actually a book. But the album cover is a picture of a book, and the album and artist are phenomenal. And yes, I know, no explanation was also one of the rules. 🤷‍♀️
