Since the first day of school one student has given me a flower daily! ❤️

One chapter in and I’m hooked! What a wonderful read! @WISDMeador #gradschool #gt #lifelonglearning

Daily gift from a student! 🥰saving and making her a little sachet first the end of the year. #kindness

As a teacher, I recommend @ProdigyGame Premium Memberships because… I love that the students are so engaged and motivated to earn points by working.

Teaching is hard — coming up with amazing #BulletinBoardIdeas shouldn't be. Check out our list of cool bulletin boards for the entire school year and make #BackToSchool a little easier. https://t.co/F0AxgBhIJY

I was gifted the cycle of life in my yard. Now I can share them with my class! https://t.co/o36wLvAXSs

@gstew2 I started slow my first year. Now have an I-pad with it up in class “Mini Me/ Secretary” is in charge of it. I tell them when to give a point, zero prt for documenting behavior for parents, data. I also find more parents have time for a text but not an email. Growth mindset too

This was such a great (and fun) way to teach the location and charge of protons, neutrons and electrons! #8thgradescience #scichat ⁦@WISDBrabham⁩

@ProdigyGame @WISDMeador Oh no, just when it’s rained out!

[M Doctoroff @ClassroomMD]

My students want to practice math at recess with @ProdigyGame. They Love it!!! I love that I can align my TEKs to it. They can practice an upcoming unit for a preassessment. Formative assess with the current unit and intervene in unmastered standards or review. @WISDMeador

That time when students love Prodigy so much they are trying to play during passing time! #teacherwin @ProdigyGame

This looks like fun. I love to give a writing promt in the morning to allow time for breakfast and allow my scholar’s brains time to warm up! Look at this...

Best present after the first full week of school! #newgermsfromlittlehands

Today we played pass the plate. Scholars wrote their names on the inside of plates. As they passed the plates each person wrote a character trait about the plates owner. We then sorted the words into Verbs and Adjectives. #communitybuildingwordstudy @WISDMeador

Just stunning! I just learned that In monarch butterflies and a few others the gold is created by a few things together. One part is carotenoid pigment and the other a hill-like structure that reflects light becausr of the peaks.

[M Doctoroff @ClassroomMD]

Great idea!

[Madison Rodon @MrsRodon_RPE]

We loved our Mindset Monday video today! What a great start to our day! Thank you for helping us with our optimistic thinking @MsAugustine_RPE 💚🐸 @HumbleISD_RPE @RPE_Counselors #BeTheLight #CommunityTime

Last week my 3rd graders brainstormed with their table groups to determine what type of class community they wanted. I was just the scribe! These scholars clearly want learning to be fun and safe, but also to have a voice heard by each other. #great-choices @WISDMeador

[gary r. gray jr. @GaryRGrayJr]

Excited to finally get down to the nitty gritty! Let the games begin 👊🏾 as we build community in class this year we start to understand each other beyond the surface level. What do we all need to be successful this year in 3rd grade. #letthegamesbegin

[M Doctoroff @ClassroomMD]

I adore this article! It explains how I think as a teacher and why I bring hand lenses, spades, nets, collection containers, and other tools for all scholars at recess! https://t.co/EWEHyYWOfs

[M Doctoroff @ClassroomMD]

@GaryRGrayJr @MisterMinor I want to not answer their questions! I want my students to struggle for knowledge and work more autonomously.
