My goal is for my students to not only grow academically, but to grow as a WHOLE person! I want students to be able to call our classroom family and a place where they can be themselves! Can’t wait for this school year!

@jmattmiller This feature is awesome! #ditchbook

[Elizabeth McCartney @mccartney2grade]

A3: I love using @googlemaps for students to see the area we live in! Especially right now, what they see is limited and this is a great way for them to learn about their community and others around the world! #ditchbook

[Elizabeth McCartney @mccartney2grade]

@BrianThayerEdS I like this!!! It gives students the why!

[Elizabeth McCartney @mccartney2grade]

A2: Setting goals!!! My 1st graders also love to “explore” new ways of thinking to find information! They love trying new things and sharing with each other in person and virtually! #ditchbook

[Elizabeth McCartney @mccartney2grade]

A1: We are allowing our 1st graders to choose how they would like to research community helpers based on what they like! Then they will have a choice on how they want to share their findings with parents and their classmates! #ditchbook

Some of you may need this reminder: you may be really struggling and may even feel like you're failing right now. But, remember that

Failure is a comma, not a period.

Pause, catch your breath, reflect, and keep going.
