@MrsBTeachesK123 I only change maybe every 5 or so years or if I have to move classrooms. Right now it’s “modern tropical” so blacks, forest green, aqua, and some palm prints and polka dots

New CDC MMWR found #Omicron #COVID19 hospitalization rates among children and adolescents almost 4x as high than during Delta peak. Adolescents who were unvaccinated had 6x as high hospitalization rates compared w/ adolescents who were vaccinated. https://t.co/QSuZ436MvU

She’d asked her students what they were “experts” on, then asked them to write her everything she needed to know about that thing. I just loved that so much. The way it motivates kids to write — and lets each of them know they’ve got something valuable to offer everyone else. 2/2
