So excited to lead the New Teacher Middle School ELA Training today with Emily Murrell! Our teachers are ready for the new year! #newschoolyear #LMSPats

Students created tableaux scenes from Refugee by Alan Gratz and fully committed to "selling" the scenes! #LMSPats #busyweeklastweek

So thankful to #NCTE and @KristinRunyon for the awesome idea on how to connect ideas from our entire 9 weeks! 8th grade students did great analyzing/discussing how themes, literary elements, vocab, and text evidence connected all the way through our "trying times" unit #LMSPats

Students working hard to create their independent reading book presentations on a rainy Thursday #curlupwithagoodbook #LMSPats

[Erin Hart @teach_Hart]

Awesome start to the year! Students debated whether the narrator of “The Tell-Tale Heart” was guilty of first degree murder or not guilty by reason of insanity, and for the first time in all the years I’ve done this, every. single. student participated! #lmspats #8thela

How do you prepare for the upcoming Case 21 test?? Have students use some serious critical thinking and standards review to make it out of an escape room!! #lmspats #escapeELA

[Erin Hart @teach_Hart]

A cloudy day, creepy music, and critical thinking on how to prepare for a zombie apocalypse?? Happy Halloween, Patriots! #lmspats

[Erin Hart @teach_Hart]

Are you proud to be a Patriot?? Yes, WE ARE!! #lmspats

[Erin Hart @teach_Hart]

Buying books for my classroom is the best money ever spent! #lmspats #booklove #thankyoustatedept

So proud of Jessi!! She came in working so hard and killed it all year long!

Congratulations Jessi! #LMSPATS #TeamDCS #RaiseTheBar

[Erin Hart @teach_Hart]

So proud of my girl Kaylee!! I loved teaching her this year and seeing her grow so much!

[LMS Counselors @counselors_LMS]

Congratulations Kaylee! Kaylee pushed herself in English this school year. Even when frustrated, she never gave up. She grew so much as a reader & writer. Proud of her willingness to open herself up, ask questions, & share her love of reading. #LMSPATS #TeamDCS #RaiseTheBar

[Erin Hart @teach_Hart]

So thankful for my awesome administration and school community! They know how to make a teacher feel loved! #patriotstrong #lmspats

[Erin Hart @teach_Hart]

I’ve talked to so many parents today checking in on my students. Hearing back from them made my heart so happy, and it continually confirmed how much I miss my students! #distancelearning #missmystudents #lmspats

[Erin Hart @teach_Hart]

Taking time out of this beautiful day to Zoom with the best team #DistanceTeaching #lmspats #EnglishTeachers

[Erin Hart @teach_Hart]

I’ve loved reading through my students’ first day responses! What’s so surprising is how so many students say they’d rather be in school! #distancelearning #missmystudents #lmspats

[Erin Hart @teach_Hart]

Students chose really significant scenes to illustrate their Holocaust novels #litcircles #lmspats #ignorethegum
