I’m happy to announce that after a long interview filled summer, I will be a Middle School Special Education teacher beginning next week. I also am going to be beginning my MEd with an ESL Endorsement through Monmouth University. Looking forward to this next chapter!

Created my last bulletin board as a student teacher! The students were able to create positive sayings and provide advice for other students as they enter testing season! @HowellTwpAldrch @MissScamardella @RoseRuddHTPS

To kick off testing month, today was Testing Wonderland! The hallways were filled with words of encouragement and positive spirit to pass the test!!

Grade level meetings focused on improving students written responses using exemplar samples in instruction. #HtPSTalentteams

This is a really neat way to look at things. I like the way they used the pencils. #TEC207S24 @RiderCEHS @RiderUniversity #GrowthMindset

Decimals can be tricky but not for these fourth graders!

[Kayla Kanarkowski @mskkanarkowski]

New bulletin board alert! The students were able to write about some of their favorite books and some of them used their book club books! @HowellTwpAldrch @MissScamardella @RoseRuddHTPS

A special thanks to the Shillelagh Pipes and Drums of the Jersey Shore for their wonderful performance this morning! We even noticed a familiar face...our very own Nurse Mastowski! What a great treat to start our morning! #HTPSCommunityEngagement #HTPSLearnerSuccess #BeTheLight

The students had a great time making Our Freedom Quilt to wrap up our Black History Month unit. The students each got to research someone. @MissScamardella @RoseRuddHTPS

My favorite time of year! Pizza fractions!!! Look at these creative ways to demonstrate all we know about fractions #WeLoveMath #HTPSLearnerSuccess @HowellTwpAldrch

[Valerie Scamardella @MissScamardella]

Our class is “MARCHing along the number line”! After learning all about fractions, we each came up with our own fraction and put ourselves in the correct order on the number line! #funwithfractions @RoseRuddHTPS @mskkanarkowski @HowellTwpAldrch

I have successfully completed the GFE Trainer Skills Assessment exam. After I pass the Google Certified Level 2 exam, I will be eligible to apply to become a Google for Education Certified Trainer!

I had the opportunity to attend the OCCEA meeting on Wednesday and was able to speak with current members about NJEA Preservice. It was a great experience and I look forward to attending more events in the future. #leadershipmatters @NJEAPreservice

Pencils kept going missing in the classroom leaving students without anything to write with. The great pencil challenge has begun in 4th grade and the students are loving it! The best part is they always have a pencil!

[Aldrich Elementary @HowellTwpAldrch]

4th graders wrote special messages on rocks and took a trip to the Kindness Garden! #BeTheLight
