A nice upset win for the Red Riots. I'll bet a certain former coach is looking down and smiling...

Our #STEAM week with kindergarten is all about @MoWillems and @The_Pigeon
Today students are working together to engineer a bed for the sleepy pigeon. Then we will measure the beds length and width with unifix cubes. #PondCoveSchool

Every upper elementary teacher (like me) should spend some time in a Kindergarten classroom. What kinder teachers do makes upper grade teaching possible.

So excited to spend the day with @LesleyEducation and @SonjaCherryPaul learning all about kids, books and anti-racism through book clubs.

You might be able to do some important learning in an unhealthy school climate, but I'm pretty sure you can't do your best work there.

@MisterMinor bringing it to my soul today during my lunch break.

That staff member who is speaking up in those meetings, asking critical questions, pushing for more intentionality, interrogating school policies is an ASSET. Stop treating them like a threat.

[Brianne Gallagher @BriGallagherSC]

Had our 1st We Got This! book club meeting! Powerful conversations full of vulnerability, reflection, & a motivation to do better for our students! Huge thanks to @MaineTOYA & @tedlund1 for their support with planning & funding & to author @MisterMinor for sparking action!

[Talya Edlund @tedlund1]

If we can completely change the way we teach, we can completely change the way we do staff meetings.

@tedlund1 Preach. 🙌🏻

Through a generous grant from our Education Foundation #CEEF we were able to make #CoderExpress goodie bags. They contain all of the materials for the unplugged activities and of course a cookie and some hot chocolate! Over 250 families signed up! #PondCoveSchool
