Hey you what if I told you we’re cool. That child’s play back in school was for @BartonAcademy’s Teacher Appreciation Week! @taylornation13 if principal @amandau27 calls me to pick these girls up will you drive the getaway car? Feeling so middle school. @taylorswift13 #TSTTPD

Started off year 7 with presenting a session on GRAPES of the Ancient World for social studies PD for @MobilePublicSch

Students created a Greek “vase” that retold a Greek myth of their choice. Some students also created labyrinths after learning about the myth of Theseus and the Minotaur. @Clarkshaweagles #learningleading @MobilePublicSch

I received a “Classics for All” grant from Ascanius: The Youth Classics Institute to purchase art supplies to enhance my Greece (December) and Rome (January) units.

In my @Clarkshaweagles History of Espionage elective class, students learned about Black Chambers where authorities read through mail, as well as letterlocking techniques used to try to prevent snooping. Then, students watched a YouTube tutorial & recreated one of the techniques.

Today, these 8th grade @Clarkshaweagles created timelines including personal and world events. #historyskills @MobilePublicSch

Massive shoutout to @canva for giving Canva Pro to all teachers for FREE!!! Making the start of the school year so much easier and a lot more aesthetically pleasing. 🙌🏼🙌🏼 If you’re a teacher and don’t have a Canva for Education account, you’re missing out!

Students practiced their geography skills and helped me learn more about them by creating an “autobiography island.” I loved seeing their creativity shine! @MobilePublicSch @Clarkshaweagles

[Alecia Howell @mrsahowell3]

My @Clarkshaweagles History of Espionage elective classes completed a hallway scavenger hunt to learn about an example of spies/deception in Ancient Greece- the Trojan Horse! #hallwayclass @MobilePublicSch

Wrapped up Middle Ages China with Tangram puzzles!

@KSCoffeeTeacher I have been using hers! We did the dipping sauces today. They were so funny telling me about the specific sauces they liked at certain places. #samekidsame I want to try some of Esther Brunat’s ranking ones!

[TeacherGoals @teachergoals]

For real! 💯

[Alecia Howell @mrsahowell3]

@KSCoffeeTeacher @Clarkshaweagles @empowermcpss I had to give them some non-screen time! It was nice to get up and move around, too! I love “hallway class” almost as much as “sunshine class!”

[Alecia Howell @mrsahowell3]

Today, some 8th grade @Clarkshaweagles visited a “museum” to discover achievements created during Middle Ages China. Remote students were able to visit the museum virtually! @empowermcpss

[Alecia Howell @mrsahowell3]

Mr. Roberts and I are covering Middle Ages China in 8th grade SS. We recreated Chinese woodblock printing with styrofoam trays in our elective classes! @Clarkshaweagles @empowermcpss

[Alecia Howell @mrsahowell3]

Face to face @Clarkshaweagles students got up and moving in the hallway to find the answers to a Diwali scavenger hunt for some cultural enrichment to end our chapter on India before break! @empowermcpss #learningleading
