Today was our beloved @DrNikPhilmon’s last official work session with the @MariettaCitySch instructional coaches. I have learned so much from him throughout these past 5 years, whether it be from a PL or an interesting lunch convo. ❤️ Go be great! #SpecialDifferentBetter

[Tamara Whitaker @Whitaker_HES]

Thank you partner @Mrs_AHenson! I couldn’t do this work without you! ❤️

[Alex Henson @Mrs_AHenson]

@JMeadeMathCoach and I challenged the @MariettaGAhs Alg Ts with providing targeted & intentional small group review and reteaching to end the year 💪. We provided the on-ramp with resources based on ALDs and the Ts put it into high gear with little prep time!! @MCS_OAA

It brings me joy to see students engaging in math discussions through modeling and real world context. 😝 @MCAA_tweet

I’m grateful that several of our gifted teachers had the opportunity to learn and grow with me at the @GAGCGifted Conference in Columbus. Congrats to Ansley Reese @SawyerRoad for presenting her practicum. #alwayslearning @DrJenHernandez @MariettaCitySch

Kicking off the new year with structured literacy! Marietta City Schools took another positive step to grow our teachers. Today, over 300 k-3 teachers received morphology professional learning. @MCS_OAA

The MCS Office of Academic Achievement is busy preparing for K-3 morphology PL on January 3rd.

2nd grade scholars researched and authored ABC books for a state of their choice. These @BookCreatorApp creations were mind blowing. Scholars also brought in food to represent their state. @ALBurrussEle

I enjoyed working with @ParkStEle 3-5 teachers this week on what rigor looks like in their mathematics instruction! We had great dialogue and collaboration! @Principal_ASoto @MCS_OAA

[Tamara Whitaker @Whitaker_HES]

One of the best things about my job is being able to visit our @MariettaCitySch K-5 classrooms to see math in action! The @ParkStEle staff & students are committed to teaching & learning. Their school saying sums it up… Sawubona! = I see you Park Street! 📈 @Principal_ASoto
