A handful of valuable strategies for connecting with students that are worth sharing. Reminded me of some of the big takeaways from human relations! @KinSchneider

Creating strong relationships with our students is key to a successful school year, and yet this is not the only relationship in the classroom that we must consider and strive to grow. @LalaGrows @edutopia

The teacher in me is ecstatic 🤩 a Facebook marketplace find for the win. Nonfiction texts, seasonal texts, and lots of picture books! So excited to incorporate these in my classroom this fall. #literacy #reading

[Rebekah Hoffman @teacherhoffman]

A good read that aligns with what I’ve been learning in reading and content literacy. Read alouds are a powerful learning tool! @KatieAndersonSD

Brain scans show that hearing stories strengthens the part of the brain associated with visual imagery, story comprehension, and word meaning. @dfkris @PBSKIDS

Today I reached out to the school librarian about ways I can begin gathering books to start my classroom library. She told me that she had a bunch that were up for grabs. Score!🤩📚#bookworm

[Rebekah Hoffman @teacherhoffman]

Feeling really proud of the work I put forth this semester. It was a busy spring! Just one more semester closer to achieving that degree! 🙌🏻📚 🤓

How many teachers does it take to do a subtraction problem?

One, because it only takes one teacher to make a difference. Happy Teacher Appreciation Week.

[Rebekah Hoffman @teacherhoffman]

The sweetest surprise from some of the 2nd graders I did my 80 hours with this semester. They are so thoughtful! Definitely feeling the love. They also must have really loved my life science lessons! ♥️🪴 #TeacherAppreciationWeek

@kevinsmithsd @KinSchneider @KatieAndersonSD @SchamberBetsy @drnashscience This statement stood out to me ➡️ “We are not limited by the experiences we can give to students. What limits learning is what can happen inside the students head.” Technology definitely enhances learning and can help provide meaningful context for students.

[MindShift @MindShiftKQED]

It can be hard to remember this, but personal growth is the goal!

It’s ok if you fall apart sometimes. S’mores fall apart, and we still love them.

Chasing Einstein week 10 challenge ✅ #perserverence #dsumath @kevinsmithsd

[Kevin Smith @kevinsmithsd]

This is a really good video from one of my #dsumath students on the partial products strategy for multiplication. @teacherhoffman https://t.co/63cAtvBtC3

[Rebekah Hoffman @teacherhoffman]

Asking the right questions in the math room allows for opportunities to focus student's on their thinking process and begin to justify/explain their reasoning. I like this because of the many question ideas to promote math talk. #mathtalkmoves #dsumath @kevinsmithsd

[Robert Kaplinsky @robertkaplinsky]

Looking for questions you can ask students to get conversations going? Here's a PDF with some of my favorite.

[Rebekah Hoffman @teacherhoffman]

This one was tricky! I definitely had to activate my math reasoning and logic for this one. 🤯 #dsumath

A fun way to encourage using number sense. #mathroutines #dsumath
