Congrats to @SchwinnTeach on being named the U.S. Deputy Secretary of Education! I'm a better phonics teacher because of her. Schools got the funds we needed post covid because of her. She also took the time to visit tons of classrooms while commissioner. Excited for the future!

It's been 5 years since this sweet girl was in my class (I think?) and today she brought me the cutest bracelet she made as a Christmas gift. Made my day. What you do matters. Keep going. It can be exhausting. But your students won't ever forget.

Need students to be able to visualize characters, setting, & events after listening to the text? Have them draw a character or scene from the story & other students guess who or what is happening. #pictionaryintheclassroom #visualizing #readingskill #readingcomprehension

Use your 9-5 to:

• Pay the bills
• Invest in assets
• Build an emergency fund

Use 5-9 to:

• Invest in yourself
• Build a side business
• Create financial freedom

If you can work 8+ hours a day for someone else, you can use your evenings to work on yourself.

@HSheltonCTE Sorry I was too stunned to speak! Good to see you though once my brain stopped malfunctioning! 😆 😂

We had a variety of mystery guest readers come to the classroom to read books about history, diversity, & social-emotional learning themes this month! Parents, my family and friends, community and school leaders...all sharing a love for reading w/them! So thankful for my "tribe"!

[Kimberly Osborne, Ed.S. @jestigertribe]

We got a visit from the mayor, Chuck Vest, who surprised the class as our mystery reader today! Students had the opportunity to ask questions and learn more about our community and its leaders, while enjoying a book where colors came together and united as one in their community.

The Robot Project is hands down my favorite project ever! Students create their own robots using recyclable materials after exploring the amazing ways technology impacts our lives. 🤖🌟 #robotproject #technology #learningisfun #tigertribein1st #iteachfirst #mytigertribe

We had an interesting visitor today!

Building relationships w/ your students outside the classroom is SO important & will directly affect their performance in the classroom. Fully embrace those moments, let them really see you for you, & you will earn their trust & respect. #stickleyfarm #firstgrade2023 #jestigers

Never have I ever seen kids more excited to do math than when I bring out the giant manipulatives. Nothing like walking up the number line 2 add, picking up giant counters & putting them in the ten frame 2 visualize making ten 2 add. Super SIMPLE way 2 increase engagement.

Good mental health allows children to think clearly, develop socially and learn new skills. Also, important for helping children develop self confidence, high self-esteem, and a healthy emotional outlook on life.

Learning moment of the week!

Multisensory learning allows students to utilize multiple senses that transmit into multiple ways for the brain to connect learning, turn making it easier to grasp the concept. This is a great way to transition from phonological awareness to phonics.
