A little rain cannot stop the celebration of @PGMSinBCPS 8th Grade Ss. Thank you PTA and Ts for your support of our drive thru celebration!

Today in my math 8 class we practiced transformations with this awesome @Desmos activity! I was really impressed with how my students persevered through the challenges and created their own unique solutions! We had so much fun sharing all of our solutions with one another!

For America’s educators, this is a great day: You’re going to have one of your own in the White House, and Jill is going to make a great First Lady.

Today my 7th and 8th grade math students practiced different OneNote features to get used to the digital platform. Part of our practice involved getting comfortable with the draw feature by well... drawing! Here are some of their creations! @PGMSinBCPS

Usually at this point in the summer I’m sneaking back into my classroom to get a jump start on setting it up. Today, I created my own mini classroom to teach from virtually this fall! Excited to get back in the “classroom” this fall and to see my students!

Everyday we tell our students “If you see something, say something.” It is time for all of us to lead by example by practicing what we preach.

One of my kiddos who I have worked with for the past three years just messaged me “I wanna join your office hours because I miss you” 🥺❤️

Virtual lunch bunch immediately scheduled for next week! I miss my students!

[Alexis Kern @mskernteaches]

It was so nice video chatting with my students today! I miss seeing and working with them every day!

When students aren’t understanding the word problem being given to them, it’s time to break out the fake money and act it out!

A5: I feel as though I am strong in instructional planning. I use technology daily in a variety of ways (review, practice, assessment) and work with high tech and low tech options to differentiate instruction #ONETOONELEARNING #ISTC674 #IT674
