Every student needs at least one teacher who is quite possibly more passionate about their future than they are. I aspire to be that person.

Seasonal🍁 Today we practiced constructive conversations while discussing our favorite seasons. We also visualized seasonal changes happening right now! #vocabulary #firsties #pgcps #pgcpsproud #teachersofinstagram #fallvibes

“Every kid needs a Champion” One of my favorite #TEDtalks and the core of my teaching philosophy Today we talked about what makes us #champions, and ways to continually practice a growth mindset. #pgcpsproud #distancelearning #vocabulary #teachersofinstagram

#Vocabulary word of the day: #Tourist!
I hyperlinked a kid world travel guide to our Bitmoji classroom, we discussed local tourism hotspots using the high frequency word, “went”, and I included, “Our Country” to independent reading. #pgcps #pgcpsproud #firsties #distancelearning

October! So many of these seasonal transitions are learned about at school!My Mustangs LOVE the annual vocabulary parade, and since we are learning about America symbols in SS, “Patriotic” was a great word to launch! #teachersofinstagram #distancelearning #pgcps #pgcpsproud #vote

You can take the teacher away from the classroom, but you can’t take the classroom away from the teacher. #PGCPS1stDay #pgcpsproud #distancelearning #teachermom

@drmonicaceo wish Mr.Bell would’ve included me commemorating your leadership. And, I wasn’t asked about the spring🤷🏼‍♀️. For the record, my opinion remains the same. Teachers,staff,& admin, continually showed their dedication throughout♥️ #PGCPSPROUD #gratful
