This book. So good! Can’t wait to give a book talk about it on Monday!

Today we finished class by getting the chance to share our self-written endings to “The Elevator” by William Sleator. My students are some #spooky writers 👻

This response to a student survey resonated with me. As we go into the next week, I hope we all can remember to smile! Our students are always watching.

My students and I collaborated to create our classroom expectations. Their awesome thoughts are now displayed above my board!

One of the first steps in connecting with a challenging student... is to LIKE them, rather than “put up” with them. It’s amazing how the attitude of the adult can affect the attitude of the kid.

I got a sneak peek at tonight’s chorus concert! WOW @_MrGodinez_ has these kids sounding amazing! #friesframe

[Emily Newburger @MsNewburger]

One thing that has stuck with me the most as a #firstyearteacher is that students need to be seen as people before they are seen as students.

Three students and I kicked off our lunchtime book club today! We can already tell that we are going to love this book! #friesframe

[Emily Newburger @MsNewburger]

I’m excited to try combining @makeymakey and @scratch to practice identifying word parts with my small groups! #handsonlearning #friesframe #learngrowlead

[Emily Newburger @MsNewburger]

Learning more about @makeymakey this morning! #stem #learngrowlead

If the next time you say ‘hello’ to a student in the hall they look startled & confused, then you know there aren’t enough adults speaking to students in non-academic spaces.

It also means it’s time to double down on your ‘hellos.’

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

What you believe about why you go to work each day really does matter. It affects your motivation, your dedication, and your gratification. It’s a good idea to remind yourself from time to time… about why you do what you do.

As an educator attending the #MarchForOurLivesdc I feel inspired. It is incredible to see how brave and empowered today’s young people are! #enoughisenough #NotOneMore

I had two students come to me and ask if I would keep their book club novels overnight. When I asked why they said, “We are afraid we won’t be able to stop reading!” This book is a page turner! #HistoricalFiction #friesframe
