Inside each of these boxes (and there are more in my car!) are the things that I have contributed to my classroom. Books, posters, supplies, storage, paper, and so much more. All things that I bought on my own dime for my classroom.

@apejenco @WeAreTeachers This is so funny! I hope you said yes! 😂

"I have never taught a perfect lesson and probably never will.  If you can have a growth mindset in your teaching, not expect perfection, and continually strive to get better, you will be just fine."

A must-read! 🔽🔽

Middle schoolers: “What’s that smell?!?”

(Proceed to gag. Cover faces. Beg me to open window. More gagging. Hysteria.)

Me: “Broccoli...”

Some days, you feel like you’re really making a difference in the world. Other days, kids throw your fish in the toilet 😐

RIP, hall-pass fish.

Let the madness begin! #poetry #nerdalert

I often feel “teacher guilt” when I get off task telling stories, or we don’t begin class right at the bell. But...classrooms are full of humans, and humans aren’t robots.

This kind of teacher dialogue is what I needed tonight! #acceptimperfection #teacher

Need a Wednesday pick-me-up?

Call a parent with some GOOD news! 😁😁

[Teach, Unfiltered @TeachUnfiltered]

As soon as I begin teaching, the phone rings. 🙄 While I’m darting across the room to answer it, a student asks if she can lead the daily bell ringer.

I love routines. Routines are the best.

Note: my classroom is rarely this perfect 😂 #middleschool

I remembered to take attendance today.

[Teach, Unfiltered @TeachUnfiltered]

For the first time ever, my middle schoolers have started a trend that I can get behind: the invisible remote.

Here’s how it works: you pretend to hold up a remote and say “mute,” or “pause,” and suddenly, it’s silent.

Genius. 😎🙌

There literally nothing better than that sweet, sweet two-hour delay text at 4:30 AM. #Iloveteachingbutalsolovesleep

Teachers. Work. So. Hard.
Be honest, how many hours did you work outside of the school day this week?

An haiku for my pencils:

My flower pencils—
I made 25 of them—
destroyed by students
