I teach 8th grade ELA. I read. I drink lots of tea, lots of coffee. I hang out with my dog. I spend too much time browsing sales. I love elephants. Hi.
We're starting nonfiction in ELA and introducing text features. We checked out 25 nonfiction books from the library and we're spending the next few days just browsing. So far so good! #hmsfalcons#d100inspires
Because, you know, we're awesome...on @IXLLearning our kiddos have answered 10,000 ELA questions, spent 50 hours practicing, and excelled in 10 6th grade language arts skills....just saying. π₯³π #d100inspires#hmsfalcons
Students writing poetry during journaling time this week, mimicking our Halloween poem. We don't officially do poetry until 4th quarter, so I love seeing them experiment so early in the year! #Halloween#poetry#d100inspires#hmsfalcons
We're working through our five senses to add more detail to our writing. These kiddos are making me hungry with all these sensory details about food! @SarahAg46198963#d100inspires#hmsfalcons
Today we're discussing success criteria in ELA. We have some very harsh critics and I can't wait to see what this brings to their writing over the next few weeks. @SarahAg46198963#d100inspires#hmsfalcons
@HeritageD100 Do you have Heritage spirit? Can you show it? We're looking for those creative souls to spook up our HMS 2022-2023 yearbook cover these next few weeks. Let's see what you've got! #hmsfalcons#d100inspires
@HeritageD100 6th graders are visiting Morton to learn all the ins and outs of how to perform a play! We're painting, drilling, dancing, singing, and a whole bunch more. We're ready to perform! #hmsfalcons#d100inspires

@HelpATeacher Please post this again in March/April when all I see are angry tweets about students coming unprepared to class and teachers refusing to share their pencils anymore. This needs to be a year long reminder.
