6th grade ELA students @PGMSinBCPS so exited to flip the archetype in Greek Mythology that they stayed after class to continue the discussion. What if the Damsel in Distress was actually on her own Hero’s Journey?
Created a “trailer” for all the awesome things that will be happening in ELA this quarter @PGMSinBCPS and my new students are reaching out over Schoology to let me know they are excited for our year to start!
Shoutout to @ThisisNScott for teaching me how to put my Bitmoji self in a cool online classroom for my upcoming Google Meets! The support of my colleagues has been unwavering as we navigate this new teaching experience together. @PGMSinBCPS
In September the PGMS yearbook staff designed a yearbook cover called “Locked in Memories”. Little did we know that March would bring such a change to our lives. The 2019-20 yearbook is filled with pictures of fun times and friends! Please purchase a yearbook today! @PGMSinBCPS
