Mrs. Arndt's Class

Big thnx to @andi__arndt for her contributions as I gathered the best #ClassroomManagment strategies for helping students and teachers work together. Starting with a Positive Word would be a great way to begin your classes this fall! heinemann.com/products/e1095… @LindseyJ_HMS

Educators, check out @nsteineke’s newest book on classroom management! It was such an honor for my students and I to be featured! Lots of great strategies!!

So proud of this former student. He credits his athleticism and dedication to his late father and @Dame_Lillard! He attends NBA games just to take notes on Lillard’s techniques! KP is going to do big things in this world! clarionledger.com/story/sports/2…

Ja’Savia just finished Panic by @sharonmdraper in THREE days! She couldn’t put it down!

@IndiaBrunenkant Will look into it!

@Arndts7thGrade He might like Warcross.

When a student says they don’t like to read, I hear, “I don’t know what I like to read.” This student “doesn’t like reading,” but he loves video games. He found an article about a new release and is reading about all the new features of his favorite game. Reading is reading!

Arndt kiddos, get excited! I just scored a SIGNED copy of On The Come Up by @angiecthomas (author of The Hate U Give)!

“There was a clear sense that the school had invested in us, which I think made us all try harder and feel better about ourselves.” -Michelle Obama in Becoming about the gifted program at her school. I hope I am fostering the same feelings in my classroom.

@davina_long is using her basketball duty to catch up on some reading! We are a community of readers at @SouthavenMiddle!

“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you will go.” -Dr. Seuss #TeamDCS

We are working hard on lit circle projects! Groups decided what project they wanted to do, what information and evidence to use, and how to present their findings to the class. We are all about student choice in Room 205! #TeamDCS

Always.

Storm said she just couldn’t put Lions of Little Rock by @KristinSLevine down. She read it all the way to the cafeteria and through lunch!

@LsnsFromALitCch taught me this and it has changed EVERYTHING about how we do extended texts.

We took our research to the library today! We love our library and @dswest_smsbooks! #StrongerthanMyexcuseS

We are @sharonmdraper obsessed in Mrs. Arndt’s class! We want to win the #BattleOfJericho #BookGiveAway because we can relate to her characters, we feel connected to her books, and we learn life lessons from her writing! #SouthavenMiddleSchool

We are researching different time periods in order to build background knowledge about our lit circle books. #TeamDCS #StrongerthanMyexcuseS

Getting to know different books during today’s book tasting! Ss are choosing which book they want to read in literature circles. #TeamDCS #StrongerthanMyexcuseS

@nsteineke @SouthavenMiddle I wish!

@Arndts7thGrade @SouthavenMiddle No roll out of bed day?

It’s SPIRIT WEEK at SMS! #TeamDCS
