teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Would-… (Linked resource from last tweet) Back to School Brain Break Activity 🧠 Use it with Kagan or an engagement strategy if your choice! There’s some fun and funny ones in there! 😋

4th graders in @miss_grazevich class started their Monday off strong learning some new #Kagan structures. They rocked stand up, hand up, pair up 🙋🏻‍♀️and timed, pair, share ⏰🗣️ with back to school “would you rathers.” Great idea for a brain break! #BeEvergreen

Helping set our students up for success by posting 🐾Bulldog Best Behavior🐾 reminders throughout the building. Whether they are in the office, hallway, bathroom,etc. they have a reminder of the 3 B’s and the expectations. 👍🏼 Shoutout to the #PBIS team for these! #BeEvergreen

Started today’s PD with some crafting and catching up! Everyone pulled a staff member name from a hat and we made bracelets with their name and/or words of affirmation. Thank you @missmcgovernkdg for my empowering bracelets. 🫶🏻 @classtag #BeEvergreen @MrLiska_D124 @jaclynmoore87

@MsDGuzman I think it’s great that you do this. A good reminder to them that we were once kids too. 😋 good luck this week!! 💚

Every year I show my students a picture of when I was a 4th grader and they love it! Can’t wait to meet my new students and get to know them. Looking forward to a great year! #BacktoSchool 📚

Wish I could show this to my first year teacher self. Honestly, even after several years it still all applies… I hope everyone has a great first week!! #BacktoSchool2023

Resharing this from last year 📚😍(and a reminder to myself to pull these out for next week, feel free to borrow!😋) what’s your fave back to school read aloud?

Yes to this 🙌🏻📖🔎 “Science of Reading tells us that foundational reading skills must be taught EXPLICITLY and systematically, and fluency is no exception. Developing reading fluency is a GRADUAL PROCESS that requires CONSISTENT practice and exposure to different types of texts.”
