I am a special educator at Dumfries Elementary. I love teaching my students. My goal everyday is to encourage them to show the world how amazing they are.

Anyone tried using part-part-whole models and bar models for spelling? Makes perfect sense to me 😀

GMS #PBIS “Woot- Woot cart” is off and running! Idea came from @Ohio_Middle conference as a way to intentionally recognize staff! We pull down staff shout-outs from board that students and staff submit. Gift, snack, drink and their nomination all received! #GMSpride

[Mrs. Yates DMES @DmesMrs]

[Mrs. Yates DMES @DmesMrs]

@DumfriesES We should try this.

@MsReateaches Thank you @MsReateaches. You have always been one of my cheerleaders. Our kiddos are thriving in middle school. I miss getting to teach with you.

[Mrs. Yates DMES @DmesMrs]

Yes, and they always come at the right time. The only problem I have is how to store them over the years and not look like an I a hoarder. 😅

You may not have a Teacher of the Year Award to hang on your wall, but the handwritten notes & drawings from your students that are tucked in your desk drawer are the real trophies that motivate and inspire you through the tough times!

My class are absolutely OBSESSED with this #GeometryDash game on @Scratch

Rather than get annoyed by it, I jumped on it with the @MakeyMakey kits. We had a go at making simple controllers to play it

Card and split pins are all you need for discussions on ergonomics & aesthetic!

[TeacherGoals @teachergoals]

This is so true! 🙌

[Mrs. Yates DMES @DmesMrs]

Exactly, and just because something is not "research based" does not mean it can't be used and will not work.

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Often in education we are more focused on change than progress. The latest programs, newest gimmicks, or just adding more doesn’t mean progress. In fact it rarely does. Perseverance is important. We have to stick to what we believes works & then actually give it time to work!

I’ve proven that I can teach in pajama bottoms for almost a full year. I’ve proven that the relationships I’ve built with my students & the respect they have for me, are not based on my outfit.

So, why can’t I wear jeans?

Do you want to help kids move beyond compliance--to become more truly invested in their learning? Try simple language shifts such as moving from, "Here's what I want you to do for me..." to "Here's your next challenge. https://t.co/i9m9S1WZsB @ELmagazine @ASCD

Love what you teach, but love WHO you teach more.
