Musical Fractions is always a hit in our classroom! Students practice comparing fractions with like numerators (while also getting a movement break)! @JCPSKY@FernCreekElem_1
SS in Ms. Siegfried’s 3rd grade classroom are Prepared Learners & Productive Collaborators! We’re using what we know about elapsed time to create our own story problems with a friend! #JCPSBackpack
Wow! I was one of the top @screencastify video creators in my district! #TopScreencaster 🎉
Screencastify has been incredibly useful during our time of remote learning and in-person instruction! So thankful @mspagesays introduced this resource to me 4 years ago!
We lost a 33-year old educator from Louisville to COVID-19 this past week. Christina Duff had taught in Oldham County & was a mental health counselor for JCPS at Lowe Elem. Her close friend said she was fully vaccinated but immunocompromised. 😢https://t.co/fupW3AHFkX
Taught about comparing fractions today, and how the greater the digit in the denominator space, the smaller the pieces in the whole shape. Then, one of my Ss says:
“Ms. S. this reminds me of our Google Meets. The more people here, the smaller the icons are on the screen!”

Perks of Being a Teacher:
When getting up at 5:40 am to watch the Derby and Oaks contenders, your sleep schedule doesn’t get interrupted... because usually this teacher is already awake! 🤪⏰

Hi teachers, I'm giving away three signed "pairs" of my Titanic book in honor of today's anniversary. RT to enter, I'll announce winners this Sat 4/18. Titanic was my first I Survived, the first of the I Survived graphic novel. This topic is endlessly fascinating!
Virtual Academy Ss are identifying fractions as parts of a group!
Today students gathered and showed objects around their house and classified them in fractional parts! (Ex: 2/4 of my nail polishes are green)
To finish our meeting, we played an intense game of Quizizz! 🤓
Welcome to 3rd Grade Virtual Academy with Ms. Siegfried, where we use unique units of measurement (such as forks) to measure objects, collect data to create a line plot, and have discussions about our graph! 😂

Teacher Techie Friends! I’m in need of assistance!
I have kiddos who are interested in learning how to type fluently on the computer. Are there any free programs or apps out there?
#SOS 😫
Nice and easy 6+ mile run on this slightly snowy morning with my @chargerunning group to kick off the weekend! It’s the best self-care & stress relief 🤣
#TeachersWhoRun
When you have a student who is SO excited about finding the area of rectangles using multiplication, that they make their own Google Slide to practice more 🥺
