Momma mostly, teacher, life long learner, tech integration fan, and just trying everyday.

Tyler Perry wins the high moment of the #Oscars - calling on us to "refuse hate" and to "meet me in the middle," where compromise and tolerance can happen. Amen.

GCS is excited to celebrate our amazing assistant principals during #APWeek21, April 5–9! We’re recognizing all that assistant principals have done to keep students and staff focused amid the pandemic. Thank you! @NASSP @NAESP

So inspired by @bpfleming today at the @FurmanU Consortium! “Love first and teach second” - putting the student before their intellect. ‘Don’t love your subject more than your students.’

If you have LEGOs around your house that you don't need any more - STEAM wants them! Send them in with your child before the end of January! #kidsaretheheart @TechTeacherACE

Mrs. Parker and Ms. Murphy are calling for all unwanted home decor magazines! Students will be working on an architecture activity in our STEAM Lab and they need pictures from home decor magazines. Students can turn them in to the front office anytime next week. #kidsaretheheart

This change in terminology in @Flipgrid's most recent updates has been tripping me and my students up a bit. Beware the difference between "Record a Response" and "Add a Comment."

I can see the light at the end of the tunnel with this pandemic.

Stay positive.

And help GCS in our goal of full-time in-person instruction for students. Wear a mask! Avoid crowds! Wash your hands! Keep you distance! Stay home if you're sick!

Self Care: our students benefit from us being our best.

[Carlos Grant, Ed. D. @DrCarlosGrant]

Adult Self Care is so important. Check out our @WadeHampton_HS Teacher Self Care Bingo. Our Better Selves=Better outcomes for students.

[Margaret Murphy @margaretsmurphy]

Thank you. We all need reminders why and what we mean. Teachers need these reminders. ❤️ (names obvi omitted)

[Alice Keeler @alicekeeler]

In #googleClassroom if you have a topic for ONE student and every assignment in that topic is ONLY assigned to that ONE student then no other students even know the topic exists. #googleEDU

[Margaret Murphy @margaretsmurphy]

It’s unbelievable how much we could all benefit from EVERYONE allowing life/work to slow down #breathe #taketime #education #family

[Alice Keeler @alicekeeler]

Be warned! When you leave in doc comments from #googleClassroom the comments are INVISIBLE if you have not RETURNED the work. #googleEDU

[Margaret Murphy @margaretsmurphy]

More you give into the “shoulds,” more resentment builds up, & resentment is the reason teachers leave. Yes, we are caretakers, ❤️ our kids, went into this profession b/c we care deeply about teaching and learning. It doesn’t mean we should sacrifice ourselves. #greatwords

[Margaret Murphy @margaretsmurphy]

Can’t help to acknowledge I was worth hearing as a classroom #teacher. And now more ‘heard’ as anything but #ATeacher #backwards
