Got to see so many familiar faces and had the opportunity to share 4th grade text sets with colleagues. Ended the day with pumpkin spice. Teacher ♥️ full. #SEASToday #CCSRISE2022 @rockyriverelem

@MrsAdam1010 Congratulations!!

Parents absolutely get to decide what books their kids read or don’t, but their jurisdiction doesn’t extend to other people’s children. Our family (and many others) wants our kids/grandkids to read accurate history and the rich stories of ALL of humanity. Leave our kids alone.

Do you read aloud to your kids? To your students? Here are just SOME of the benefits to doing so. 💛📚💛

[Amy Whitten @AmyLynWhitten]

Perfect example of showing students where to look, but not what to think. These conversations should be happening in our classrooms. Two young men engaging in discourse using evidence to support their ideas about the confederate flag.

My Friday night ❤ #whatareyoureading

[Amy Whitten @AmyLynWhitten]

Walked in to answer a question and caught the most beautifully engaging lesson on imagery in music. Ms. Naylor used a movie score to help students visualize while writing poems. @rockyriverelem #RiseUpRRES

The battle between the favorite subjects! Math or reading?? @rockyriverelem
