Inspired by the one and only @The_Pigeon, a first grade student has very enthusiastically recreated the story of Pigeon finding a hotdog and shared it with her classmates.
@peterhreynolds I do too! Thank you for inspiring a new tradition in my classroom! Already looking forward to having my future classes add their signatures :)
We enjoyed listening to @peterhreynolds read his new book, Our Table and commemorating our connectedness with our signatures on the end pages! It was the most special part of our day :)
Happy Fall! This month is all about giving thanks in first grade. Celebrating and honoring connections, togetherness and the Earth. What books are you reading this month?
If you were asked to “draw air,” how would you do it? First graders are thinking about our essential question “What Is Air?” as we begin our new science unit today!
Before we provide explicit #SEL instruction to our students, we must first be intentional about creating a sense of #belonging & #community within our classrooms & schools. Only then can we begin the important work of nurturing our student's growth and progress. #relationships1st
Connecting with 2 Gr. @shady_side today was such an exciting experience! The students all worked diligently on their representations and sentences to share how they like to play. Pretty cool when the connecting class is your mom’s, too :)
2nd Gr. @shady_side loved connecting with @MissSandora’s students @FosterSchoolMTL to share How We Play, based on the book This is How We Do It: One Day in the Lives of Seven Kids Around the World by Matt Lamothe. We discovered we like many of the same activities! @also_design
Check out this Mt. Lebanon Magazine article to see what kind of opportunities were discovered in education this year through the pandemic. I was so honored to share my thoughts. https://t.co/D2FOkJpYql
After reading “Happy Dreamer” by our favorite, @peterhreynolds, second grade took a few moments to represent what kind of dreamer they are on their “blank canvas.” The excitement of possibilities was contagious today!
Spent the first portion of the day at @FosterSchoolMTL where I had the chance to offer an audio solution for an outstanding teacher. More importantly, that outstanding teacher is a former student of mine. So I had a heartwarming morning! #leboproud 💙💛💙💛💙
Adults and children alike can benefit from a pause in their day to check in with their breath. Try this mindful dots breathing exercise to reset and renew. #Mindfulness#breathe#SEL
