I had the distinct pleasure of going to @DUSchoolofEd with Samantha Utley and then teaching with her years later. She is an incredible person, friend, and educator. So very proud of her and excited for her! ❤️
When @Falk_School Director @jeffsuzik's tenure ends on June 30, Jill Sarada, Joanna Newlin, & Samantha Utley will make history & serve as a women-powered dream team to lead the school until the next director is named.✨➡️Learn more: https://t.co/BEGp4F8IZJ
@curriculum_kosd the toilet paper & cleaning supplies really got me! I’m sure they’re tired of hearing about it! Meanwhile if I got lysol for Christmas I would be thrilled 🤷🏼♀️😂
For the last day of school before Christmas break, we did a virtual scavenger hunt. The last clue was find something you would NOT want as a Christmas gift. I was DYING at what my kids chose-lysol, Apple, pencil, TP, Clorox, ketchup, vegetables, a broom, a plant, & sand. 😂🎅🏻🎄
They were that I was teaching 18 five year olds on a cell phone. She thanked me profusely for all I’ve done this year for the kids and told me about a FB post the other mom wrote about me. I went to investigate and this is what I found ❤️ (4/5)
This year has been HARD. The hardest of my career by far and I struggle daily. I wonder if I’m doing the best things for my kids. In question myself and my abilities. Then, I get great emails & FB posts I feel like I’m making a difference. That is by far the best feeling ever.
But, I joined on my phone & kept teaching until my power kicked back on and I could get back on my laptop. What else was I supposed to do, right? I spoke with one student’s aunt today and she said she was talking with the mom that heard the commotion and said how impressed (3/?)
They were so concerned something happened to me because I just disappeared. One mom that I know particularly well from having both of her sons told me she could hear the kids yelling my name and trying to figure out why I left them. I was gone for MAYBE 2 minutes total! (2/?)
My school district is now fully remote & yesterday while I was in the middle of teaching my 5 year olds LIVE from home, my power went out & I got kicked off line. I admittedly panicked, grabbed my phone, & jumped back on my google meet. I logged back in & my kids were DYING (1/?)
I am SO excited to read my kindergarten students their letter from Santa tomorrow! Thanks @DuqAlumni for doing such a creative & an awesome thing for kids! I know this project was designed for alumni with children, but I knew my 19 five year olds would love it, too! ❤️💙🎅🏻
@KOAikenElemMrT I feel like this the clothing version of a mullet...but instead of business in the front and party in the back, it’s business on top and party on the bottom. I fully support this trend!
