I'm just a loveable plush monkey, living in a math classroom, hanging out with 8th graders!

@ClaireHandville @SCMS_Counseling Is it not okay to ask questions that don't have happy answers? My friends ask me how I'm doing each day. I don't assume that my answer has to be "fine thanks." I assume they care how I'm doing?

@Pfagell Middle schoolers are the best!

@Linda_Shantz @JennMacBrown Did you consider that some students don't have one at home because their parents don't want them to have one?

@MrsLacyArtClass They never stop knocking my socks off!

What is it about finding slope that makes friends want to draw Mrs. Alexander?!

My friend said, "I just don't think I believe in AAS."
In beforetimes we sorted that out with Exploragons. Today, we agreed to take it as a postulate, but Mrs A says we'll prove it together soon.

Back-to-School Night!
Mrs. Alexander is wearing her special BTSN dress even though no one will see it. She says it has all her speaker notes in the seams. I don't think that's true but it's a nice dress.

The first day of school looks different this year, but it feels the same.

I love my new friends already!

Enjoy your first day, everybody. Give yourself some grace, and make an awesome year!

School is starting & we know this chapter will be different & unpredictable! It’s okay to be anxious of the unknown plot twists that lie ahead. Have courage as we head into this new chapter & trust that what’s on the next page will teach us something exciting 📚 #kidsdeserveit

@LindseyMDaSilva Yes! Mrs. Alexander already promised us a "Community Zoom". She needs to figure out when to schedule that right now!!!

[Nigel @nigelsheadache]

I miss my friends today.
It's the last day of Qtr3. Normally we'd be in Community Circle, and checking things off of our bucket list.
I'm looking back at the original padlet of our September hopes. I'm so proud of how many of these already came true! #classpet #togetherapart
