When I found out I was expecting during my NB journey I was overjoyed and overwhelmed. But I wasnโt giving up! As a (tired) teacher Mama I was proud to see fireworks ๐ฅ on my screen today. The sweet baby girl in my arms made this entire journey worth it! #wcpsmdNBCT#NBCTstrong
WOW! Such a powerful quote shared in the Strengths-Based Teaching and Learning in Mathematics book study. Looking forward to digging deeper into how I can focus on my students AND my own strengths to unlock learning in new ways. #wcpsmdlearns
โThere is evidence that students who are struggling readers spend more time doing activities about reading...they need to experience success with reading itself. Success builds motivation.โ @wcpsmdlearns #thisisbalancedliteracy
Awesome PD session on how to use @brainingcamp to shift our students thinking! SO many great virtual tools for Ts and Ss to use throughout the math block! Easy way to use as a quick formative assessment and build rich conversations in math! Thanks @MaryAnnNussear#wcpsmdlearns
"Feedback should be more work for the recipient rather than the giver." YES!! How can I improve this practice in my classroom? Inspired by the realness about teaching, formative assessment and feedback from keynote Dylan Wiliam! Thanks @wcpsmd#wcpsmdlearns
@CTSKeeley confirmed my thinking around productive science talk! Providing student opportunities to think deeper, listen to each other and respond thoughtfully. Great ways to engage Ss with speaking and listening skills~talk moves here I come! #wcpsmdlearns
Rethinking my fluency game over here! Shifting my students thinking from "I know these facts and I don't know these" to "I'm working on these facts and I got these!" by providing them with explicit strategies, communication tools and practice! Thanks @JBayWilliams! #wcpsmdlearns
Our teacher decisions directly impact our students learning in Math & Science. How can I shift my practice to engage and ensure student transfer? Thanks for pushing my thinking @JBayWilliams#wcpsmdlearns
Math Manipulatives Room! All manipulatives are linked to an online platform where students are able to manipulate the items! :-)

Share as a "published to web" link if you would like the animated version.....Enjoy! :-)
โTransact with text rather than extract from the text.โ (Beers and Probst) Ss make their own meaning to change & challenge their thinking. Enjoying getting to dive back into the book Disruptive Thinking!! #wcpsmdlearns
"Our best teaching moments happen in chaos." Having stepped into a "wicked" teaching environment during this pandemic, I've learned so much about myself and my students. Inspiring first day of learning at the @wcpsmd United in Practice Summit! @trevorabryan#wcpsmdlearns
Whatโs up in Room 110? Ss used a Grade as You Go process in order to see evidence of story elements, creativity and continuously improve their work! Who doesnโt love using emojis ๐ผ๐ ๐๐โto share feedback? ๐
