@TweetsByTuti Anytime...thanks for being such a great audience! 🥰

Bittersweet day...saying goodbye to the 5th graders...so proud to be their teacher! Sweet of them to deliver gifts of appreciation...like a genuine drive-thru! However, their heartfelt notes meant the most. 💜🥰 They will do great things! #IndianTrailHereTheyCome

May not have been the ideal way to graduate 8th grade, but we still tried to make Joey feel special with a viewing party in the back yard! Good luck at Lake Park HS, Joe! #VirtualGrad2020 #ProudAuntieDea #QuotingJordan #TaughtHimWell

@kevans1087 Congrats, Kendra! You will do great! 🥰

When these crazy times prevent your friend and colleague from being at her first grandchild's birth, you have a parade to lift her spirits! Welcome to the world Baby Lucy! Can already tell you get your feistiness from your Nanai! #LucilleGrace #LoveYouTina #BeaverBeliefs

@missfarrellslp Make sure you send the link to Mr. Tucker to include it on his parent update...this way the kids will see it too.

@alexa_knierim I hear you, girl! I am even finding these mini ones my students buy me as gifts as I spring clean! They calm my nerves in these trying times! Congrats BTW...so happy for your big news! Can't wait to see you back on the ice!

@Gawron3rd I will also be trying a Google Meet on Friday...we will have to compare notes! I did like that everyone can be seen all at once in that particular view.

Learning new skills during this time of social distancing! Excited to set up a Zoom mtg with my class for Friday, so I "practiced" today with my fellow Beavers. So good to see them. We don't realize how much we miss that socialization piece until it's gone! #BeaverBeliefs

What a coincidence! My niece won two Chicago Wolves tickets at her school's Bingo Night and Mrs. Rose from Army Trail is here on the same night! #RidingTheZamboni #BeaverBeliefs

Ss had fun solving a @breakoutEDU based on a favorite show: Stranger Things. Following clues to find Will using Hopper's police report, Eggos, & a Rubic's cube! Big thanks to @ITSmatkowski for her organization and patience! #BeaverBeliefs #Relivingthe80s #TimmyIsRelentless

5ths teaching 1st Gr Buddies how to play checkers...prepping for Army Trail's Student Council Checkers Tournament! Taught them the rules, brainstormed strategies, built up their confidence, and judged when they finally played each other. #BeaverBeliefs #NoDontJustLetThemWin

Army Trail Staff supporting our past students in Addison Trail's Winter Musical, Rock of Ages! #BreakALeg #TwoOfUsWereAliveInTheEighties #BeaverBeliefs

5th and 1st grade Buddies working on a "How-To" writing activity...steps to making hot chocolate. 5ths helped 1sts brainstorm with pictures, words, and phrases and later 1sts will write their own paragraphs! #BeaverBeliefs #ItsAMarshmallowWorld

In honor of #MLK2020 on Monday, the kids did an Escape Room where they had to help Dr. King locate the combination to his safe. He accidentally locked it inside and forgot the code! #WeAllEscaped #BeaverBeliefs

[Deanna Johnson @MsJohnsonAT5th]

@DJpeguy They had such fun out there! Wish Northwestern could have pulled off the win! 😁

[Deanna Johnson @MsJohnsonAT5th]

Enjoyed presenting this morning on differentiation to the staff with Michele Rose to wrap up our Literacy Bowl. Our escape room activity was engaging and fun...so many escapees! #ArmyTrailLiteracyBowl #BeaverBeliefs

Took some courtside video of my nephew firing a pass inside to his center and then getting an inbound pass for a layup under the basket. #ProudAuntieDea

Enjoyed Northwestern v. Hartford 🏀 game today even though Wildcats fell short by 1 point in the final seconds! Awesome game...followed by my nephew's travel team getting to play on the court. Won by over 20 points! #LiteracyBowlByeWeek
