A little dictionary relay competition never fails to get students invested in their learning (and help them identify elements of dictionary entries)! Shoutout to 7th grade for beating the 8th graders in today’s battle!

Paraphrase practice and opinion-based responses from Volume II of Frankenstein! Had a student tell me “I thought I was going to hate this book, but it’s so fun to read!” which truly was the highlight of the week. Can’t wait for Volume III! @SolarSTEAMGirls @DallasReads

We all face moments when things feel overwhelming, and that’s okay. Remember, you are not alone.

Swung by Harry Potter Club and caught the CUTEST mandrake potting activity afterschool using caramels, brownies, and parsley!! Absolutely magical ✨

STEAM Friday involved lots of ~spooky~ crafts in middle school today!! 7th graders got to paint and launch mini pumpkins, while 8th graders assembled movable skeleton hands. A fearfully fantastic way to end the week! @MsRudd_Math @SolarSTEAMGirls

[Ms. Swanny has read 3/31 books in 2025 📖🥳 @MsSwannyReads]

@JaegleMs @NorthLake_ECHS @SolarSTEAMGirls @livmsantos @MrCuevasR7 @N_Bernardino Yes!! Got to spend some time in her classroom 🫶🏽 miss all my Medrano friends!!

Every year I look forward to this high school visit!! Thank you @NorthLake_ECHS for hosting our 8th graders today and showing us around campus! Our students loved seeing first-hand how much you have to offer 🤩 @SolarSTEAMGirls @livmsantos @MrCuevasR7 @N_Bernardino

[Ms. Swanny has read 3/31 books in 2025 📖🥳 @MsSwannyReads]

LOVE this visit every year! So thankful to our friends at North Lake for hosting our 8th graders!!

[North Lake Early College High School @NorthLake_ECHS]

We’ve loved welcoming @SolarSTEAMGirls to our campus today and getting to show them the North Lake way! We can’t wait to see these Trailblazers blaze a new trail in high school! @AdHernandez2648 @RubyRamirezDISD @N_Bernardino @livmsantos @MsSwannyReads

Cannot get over this email from a student who wanted to express appreciation for a creative project I gave her class. The fact that she’s being completely sincere?? Ugh I love it 🥹

[Ms. Swanny has read 3/31 books in 2025 📖🥳 @MsSwannyReads]

Finished a book for the first time in two months last night 🥳 (the school year has me TIREDT!) Now the question is, to keep this momentum going, do I reward myself by buying a new book since none of the ones on my bookshelf are really calling out to me?? 📚
