@MrsGlazebrook I have them on the board on little flip charts made for each subject but we also say them two times together at the beginning of lessons.. “I can..” then we say “we can..” and we do actions to them!

@meidlinger_sara Do you have a lot of students that participate? I do this, but I only have at maximum five students that participate!

Bringing literacy to the culture of our school next year! Can’t wait to implement some of these strategies. Thank you @TechNinjaTodd #NAESP22

I’ve been teaching long enough that I get to have siblings of my students I’ve already had and I’m so excited 💗

@EmilySn20169956 We get 1 a year in the district I am in now! In my old district we went on 5 or 6 of them.. it was a lot!

The first day of school always gives me some nervous energy. I read this book to my class and then we share “Jitter Juice” together. (Sprite and juice mixed) What’s something special you do on the first day of school?!

[Miranda Weingaertner @livinginprimary]

Something to think about when making things for your classroom!!

@AshleyHays01 @MistyAd99545913 Do you like it?! I am about to sit down and navigate it and start planning for the upcoming year!

Addressing the teacher shortage shouldn't involve lowering criteria to be a teacher--it should involve supporting teachers, paying them, and providing the resources needed to best serve students.

@MistyAd99545913 I also read one titled “Why I will never pay for a jean day again!” I also liked that perspective. I’m not a fan of having to earn or pay for them! (Unless you are paying for it to go to a cause of some sort or something like that!)

[Miranda Weingaertner @livinginprimary]

Does your district do jean day Fridays? We only get a certain amount of jeans days a year and we have to pay for them 🙃

[Miranda Weingaertner @livinginprimary]

@mrsstolen We get 45 mins. K-2 and then 3-6 get one 30 min recess I believe!

[Miranda Weingaertner @livinginprimary]

My district pays for MyLexia for students and I love using it as a rotation in reading!

[Miranda Weingaertner @livinginprimary]

@taylor98v I’m not sure if they can if they bought the school version, but I just pay for it on my own because I love it! We have to turn our plans in every week on a google classroom so that’s how they see our plans!

Here is a link to my screen casting video! I made it as an introduction for my students on who I am and familiar faces they will see around school! #552bobcat

If you have Reading A-Z, let students pick out a book at their level they are interested in and print it out for them! This is how I got one student hooked on reading!

[Miranda Weingaertner @livinginprimary]

I thought this was interesting!

Chatterpix is a fun app that is easy for primary aged kids to use! We use it in math and reading!
