Shout out to the one and only Mrs. Skeels for showing us how to use @magicschoolai rooms for students to use for writing feedback & more. Shout out to Mrs. Dorner for coming along & bringing her student teachers for bite-size PD this morning! @DrPMilcetich@ACSD_MH@MrWarders
Reading Club is underway this morning - we are discussing our books, reading, and learning how to sketchnote the details of our books (which can carry over to other school subjects)! @DrPMilcetich@ACSD_MH@MrsMcNally_LES@MrWarders
Round 2 of reading club started this morning! @MrsMcNally_LES and I used clues to reveal each of the 13 books we will read. Students then went to work forming groups and getting started. Greenmen Readers Rise! @MrsMcNally_LES@MrWarders@DrPMilcetich@ACSD_MH
The first session of Rise and Game club was underway bright & early this morning. Shout out to @MrsMcNally_LES for planning an amazing morning for these gamers. Happy to co-host with her! Thanks for the community support @AuroraSchoolsFo@DrPMilcetich@ACSD_MH@MrWarders

Itโs always an honor to spend time with Ohioโs @GovMikeDeWine and First Lady @FranDeWine. This is my favorite event of the holiday season - the Governorโs holiday open house! Also, this is likely my last โofficialโ engagement as 2025 (District 9) Ohio Teacher of the Year!
We had a fabulous 3rd grade "Leighton Day Parade" presided over by @ACSD_MH & @MrWarders with special guest @DrPMilcetich! Students learned the history and science behind the Macy's parade and then designed their own floats. #Thankful for this moment!
Thankful for our @auroraelemPTO for letting teachers pick out a very generous amount in books from the fall book fair. The Bindus/McNally kids have already swooped them all up and are reading away! @MrsMcNally_LES@DrPMilcetich@ACSD_MH@MrWarders
Almost 50 kids in (& still registering) for Leighton's Reading Club! These readers started their day bright & early by forming groups, picking books, & preparing for America's Battle of the Books! Thanks to Mrs. McNally for co-hosting with me! @MrWarders@ACSD_MH@DrPMilcetich
