Epic resource for teaching math virtually. I know what I’ll be reading this weekend.

The fifth grade team is ready for our first day of school! Happy to report 100% attendance for our morning meeting. So excited to connect with our students 👏🏽 @DC_Connections_ #DCJESDPROUD

@drdonvu @BarrettRanch_ Thanks DDV! That’s excellent

Brainstorming session. What kinds of games can we play as a fifth grade class in a virtual class meeting? Any ideas?

[Karina Almanza @MsAlmanza]

Reaching out to my Twitter community. Looking for possible fifth grade novel studies. Open to all topics, especially those that are culturally diverse and/or align with fifth grade social studies. @donalynbooks @MrSchuReads @pernilleripp @ILAToday @CRAreading @PARCreads

AP @ccdevine staying late to give our free little libraries an update. Our little libraries belong to everyone in our community. Take a book and return it when you’re done. Visit @BarrettRanch_ and look for Dog Man.

[Karina Almanza @MsAlmanza]

@mrsjamiehalsey @tishrich Did you like the book? What’s your biggest takeaway?

[Karina Almanza @MsAlmanza]

@ABrambleTeach @pernilleripp I have the same question.

More waiting...

Stealing reading moments while waiting for vision and hearing screening. Every minute counts!

First day of school is here! My room may not be 100% ready but my heart is. Tomorrow morning twenty eight beautiful souls will enter our classroom to be my teacher. I may have the official title but students are the true guides of learning. @BarrettRanch_

@jmdedrick Thanks, JAM! It was very nice indeed 😊

[Karina Almanza @MsAlmanza]

@Battle_Quest I am interested in learning more about your core instruction time. We incorporate independent reading and I’d like to know what else you do.

@drdonvu @Scholastic @Bbarrettsbf @chadceverett @SaraKAhmed Ha! Epic photobomb @donalynbooks. Loved spending time with each of these impressive individuals. Their passion is contagious!
