I'm working on creating my classroom library! If you are in Raleigh or LKN area and have old children's books that you looking to donate, I would love to get them from you! I need books for all levels (picture, chapter, novels). Message me if you have anything! Thank you!

Been exploring the OBX this week. There’s so much history around from the NC lighthouses, to the graveyard of the Atlantic, to Roanoke Island. Having lots of fun learning and exploring!

Thanks, @NCStateCED for preparing me for my future classroom! I can't wait to share my knowledge and passion with my future students and team!! #NCState21

Student teaching in a pandemic is hard, but I have the best students and mentors!! I'm going to miss my sweet 3rds! I will never forget the memories and lessons I have learned this semester!! @BottomsThirds @NCStateCED

[Ms. Mandy Thompson @MsThompson2nd]

@ms_kreider I did that with my students and it's the sweetest thing!! Going to miss them sooo much!!

Hi teachers, I'm giving away three signed "pairs" of my Titanic book in honor of today's anniversary. RT to enter, I'll announce winners this Sat 4/18. Titanic was my first I Survived, the first of the I Survived graphic novel. This topic is endlessly fascinating!

It's FUN FRIDAY! This week for our design challenge, we will be creating a graduation cap for me! They will be following the design process and writing a pitch on why I should wear their design!! I can't wait to see what my 3rds design!

The tears, stress, late nights writing and researching, days spent planning, teaching, and hours of videos have paid off... I PASSED edTPA! Next stop, completing my student teaching and then graduation 😁 #edTPA @NCStateCED

[Ms. Mandy Thompson @MsThompson2nd]

So important!! Be innovative, find ways to get students to think critically, and practice designing and problem-solving!

[Jeff Burr @burrplp]

Don’t get caught up in the worksheet. Bring the subject alive in the classroom. Take chances and be innovative. #innovateinsidethenox #elemAPnetwork #plppride @beckyg314 @PLPAction @HoffPhD @gcouros @ToddWhitaker @plpapgopo @PLPLoree @MsThompsonThird @EmilyAPaschall

Just like that my edTPA is submitted and being reviewed... It's been an intense couple of months but it is all paying off!! 😁

[Ms. Mandy Thompson @MsThompson2nd]

Following the Engineering Design Process, we made some Rosie Revere flying machines today in EL! I asked my engineers to come up with an idea to innovate and better our designs! Can't wait to share ideas in our morning meeting tomorrow! #STEM

[Ms. Mandy Thompson @MsThompson2nd]

Rosie Revere, Engineer read-aloud today and virtual STEM challenge to make a flying machine... Let's see what my engineers create! #ugtm #STEM

[Ms. Mandy Thompson @MsThompson2nd]

@mrsccthompson So good, they talked about it the rest of the day! Had lots of fun making chemical reactions, hypotheses, and conclusions. Planning an engineering challenge for us to do next week!

[Ms. Mandy Thompson @MsThompson2nd]

Good Morning Scientists!! Who is ready to learn about chemical reactions by making a mess in Miss. Thompson's kitchen? My scientists are so excited!! Maybe we will have a dog assistant to help us!

[Ms. Mandy Thompson @MsThompson2nd]

Elephant Toothpaste was a success! Our hypothesis was correct that if we added more yeast, then the explosion would be bigger. Time to clean up my 'laboratory!' #ugtm #thirdgrade

[Ms. Mandy Thompson @MsThompson2nd]

Lunch Bunch with my Sweet 3rds! We had a solar system dance party and talked about our dogs... 😍
