What is a rich learning environment? Our group said, “An organized, engaging space that fosters collaboration between scholars while allowing them to push their thinking and apply their learning to the real world” #FPCSChamberlain #FPCSStandardsUniversity

Summer Scholars working hard to create shadow boxes that reflect aspects of Dominican culture. Our novel study this summer is Julia Alvarez’s Before We Were Free, so we’re creating some background knowledge 😍

@teachinaTARDIS As someone who made the switch from librarian to teacher, you’re doing amazing. Consider placing a QR code in each teacher’s room that links to a google site w/ the important info. That way you’re not flooding inboxes or adding to their paper pile. Plus kids can access info too!

I love it when scholars use text evidence to support their thoughts!

There’s nothing like the sweet sound of critical thinking

@dcpublicschools @CHCSPTA This makes me so happy! Having worked with him and having worked at Watkins, this is a great fit! He has some big shoes to fill (shout-out Ms. Bell 💕) but I’m sure he’ll do wonderfully!

We all know that great educators build great relationships with students. But we rarely hear about concrete strategies that support educators who find relationship-building challenging. What are some quality strategies that people find most effective?

[Whitney Jerome @ELA_withMsJ]

They say a culturally relevant teacher, an inviting environment, and personality make for a great classroom....so I try to pay attention to the detail. Video of my entire classroom coming soon!

Yesterday, as a kid walked by my class during class change, he said “you look like a fun teacher.” I said “thanks, but why?”

He said, “music is blaring in your room and I saw you dancing and smiling as you walked out here”
