@jimmyfallon I tried to boil and egg in the microwave! Epic fail! Pressure caused the microwave door to fly open and project raw, dripping egg all over my kitchen! #CookingFail

STMS loves its community - especially our veterans!!

A6 Middle school learners are so unique but they just want you to listen and provide them with structure and love. Set boundaries and expect them to comply. We all want love and structure!! #MiddleMatters

[Kerry Waters @KerryWaters19]

A5 I have noticed that my students seem to CRAVE social interaction. They love to discuss, argue, collaborate, etc. While I can do this using technology, my sixth graders are enjoying “old school” methods of sharing!!! #MiddleMatters

[Kerry Waters @KerryWaters19]

This is so important!!!

A3: I have observed other counselors using Teletherapy and I am excited about trying it out. This can be a great resource for our students. Students are matched with therapists who specialize in certain areas...and they can receive services at school. #middlematters

[Kerry Waters @KerryWaters19]

I absolutely love this idea!

[Roseann R. DeJarnette @RoseannDeJarne]

A4: One way at NTMS is by taking "Warrior Walks" with our students during their PE. We walk the track with individuals to get to know them better. Students can request/reserve "Warrior Walk" time. Positive feedback!😎 #MiddleMatters

A4 Positive relationships with students has always been a top priority for me, but in the wake of a pandemic it is absolutely a MUST. In my classroom, I try to make students feel comfortable. Comfortable with learning, sharing, writing, reading, etc #MiddleMatters

Yes!! @regankennnedy has shared so many wonderful tips! I love Grade transferer add-on!

[Kim Scott @KimScot78587238]

As an old school teacher, it is great having the young tech savvy teachers on my team to show me the latest and greatest. @regankennnedy is a wonderful resource for all things new and innovative. I LOVE her online interactive notebook! #middlematters

I’m loving Flocabulary!! So glad we have a subscription now!

[K Swindell @MsSwindell_BCMS]

A1: Flocabulary or short video clip that will get students excited and asking questions about a new topic. #MiddleMatters

[Kerry Waters @KerryWaters19]

A3:
Kerry Waters learns the names of all students (to include those she doesn’t teach) and gets to know things about them personally early in the year. #MIDDLEMATTERS

[Kerry Waters @KerryWaters19]

A3 I’ve observed many awesome things at STMS ... I subbed in Jamie Poplin’s room and watched the students fully engaged in a Nearpod lesson complete with map activities and Flocabulary lessons! #MiddleMatters

[Kerry Waters @KerryWaters19]

A2 - While I’d used https://t.co/zVzNlvLPja previously, I’ve used it weekly to replace my Greek and Latin Roots handouts. Great immediate feedback. I’m also loving b.socrative for sharing sessions. #middlematters

[Kerry Waters @KerryWaters19]

A1 - I love to use music to get my students excited about learning new content! #middlematters

Hi! I’m Kerry Waters, 6th grade ELA teacher at South Tattnall MS🤩 #middlematters

[Kerry Waters @KerryWaters19]

@cultofpedagogy Provided online resources for parents. No grading or requirements because we don’t have one to one computer access for all students and rural broadband - slow!
