Today in 3Co, the morning meeting activity asked students to identify how they felt, and find a google image to express themselves. The only rule was that it had to be school-appropriate. These are what they shared. This picture truly says 1,000 words! #zonesofregulation

What a great SEL activity to promote self-love and attention to detail. Most importantly, it was an amazing way for me to see my students through their own eyes! #SEL #Mini-Me

Yesterday during math, a student of mine had a stack of Sport Trading cards on his desk. I told him that my brother has a TikTok account for buying and selling cards! Turns out he has watched my brother’s videos. So my brother sent my him some cards! How AMAZING! #teachermoments
