Mrs. Luse (Miss Orbaugh)

Merry Christmas 🎄 Hope you all have a great day!

Week 1 of kindergarten was filled with so many sweet memories! We are so excited for the year to come.

What an amazing experience getting to zoom with Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor in @DrPangansclass Saturday STEM class. Her research and story are deeply fascinating and the connections to the classroom are endless.

One of the greatest educators! Thankful for everything I learned from this wonderful human.

Musicians are loving our new playground and the ways they can engage within musical play! Check out these musicians drumming up a tune ☺️

Oral storytelling 💚 The natural progression of stories within the spoken activity consistently amaze me. These story tellers are just getting started!

What happens when you leave an apple out all week? How does it change day to day? Look closely! These scientists aren’t afraid to use the word oxidation ☺️✔️

Don’t miss the opportunity to explore this impeccable exhibit at @butleru The educational craft displayed is inspiring and simply remarkable! Grateful I got to debrief and reflect with @Cathy_Hargrove 💙🤍@ButlerCOE

Scientists began exploring animals in their habitats. What animal do you think we found in our garden?

Today we welcomed Miss Aisley, our high school cadet, into our classroom! We are grateful that her helpful hands and caring spirit will be with us each morning! @AisleyWillis

Grateful for a principal who takes the time to come into classrooms to share about our school and district’s belief - Everyone Belongs Here - @ZCSBoone_Meadow @MyZvilleSchools

Thank you Mr. Gatlin for taking the time to share about yourself! We enjoyed learning about similarities and differences between you and all of us. We are glad you’re a part of the BME family now. #greatadmin

@ms_usyak It comes with the Bridges Curriculum that our district adopted for math ☺️

@MrsLuse I love that big calendar!

These kindergarten scholars had a fantastic first week of school and are ready to take on the year together! I’m excited to see how we all learn and grow together.

The greatest gift is working with at a place and on a team that encourages you to be your best, supports you beyond measure and is so fun! Bring on year 5!!

Kindergarten readers work with partners to engage in a box of books to sort them based on interest! What kinds of books do you like?!

We are SO excited to have Miss Chloe with us this year. These scholars already adore her.

@erinjkay1 @MrsChristie21 @ZCSUnionElem You are a great leader! Have a wonderful year 😊

Tomorrow is the first day of school for teachers! My first opening day as Principal! Can’t wait to lead with the talented - @MrsChristie21! We worked all summer to plan for a great year for both students and teachers. #inclusivity #collaboration #studentgrowth @ZCSUnionElem

@ms_stautzenbach @Mrs_Valentine3 You are incredible and you learned from the one of the best! I wish I could steal you to teach with me so I could learn all of your ways! Best of luck in your future and know the education world in immensely better with you in it!

Today wrapped up my student teaching experience. I am eternally grateful for every person who has supported me along the way. Thank you @Mrs_Valentine3 for opening your classroom up to me. Leaving with a full heart❤️

Thank you @IndianaFairFun for supporting our learners in growing their knowledge on how our food is produced. Learners got to engage in 5 stations related to how our food is grown and then how it ends up on our plates!
