Three new friends working together learning new vocabulary and using structure words to visualize and verbalize. Amazing collaboration!

The best thing I did this year (beside getting married) was agree to cover this class. We laugh, we learn, we cry, we celebrate big and small accomplishments and speaking positivity into these boys is my daily goal! Today-we celebrated by making ice cream!

I forget about pics I take throughout the day but then when I see them later I’m reminded of so many little reasons to be happy. Like these guys, working together as teams for one common goal. Helping each other with reminders on where to put different syllables AND why! 🖤💛🐆

Last day of Backpack Club calls for doughnuts!! 🍩

I’m pretty sure lunch bunches are the best relationship builder!

If you’re wondering if I cried when I opened this card, the answer is yes, yes I did.

Every student responding. Participation is a group sport!

Fact Masters! My goal is to send these kiddos to 4th grade knowing their multiplication facts! They are working hard memorizing and earning their “belts.”

Thankful. ☺️

The future belongs to the curious. The ones who are not afraid to try it, poke it, explore it, question it and turn it inside out. #fossils @Lutherville_Lab

Unit 2 Math Assessment today. Each student in my class will get a testing encouragement sticky note before the test begins. They need to know I believe in them.

There are no “special education students” or “Tier 2” or “Tier 3 students,” and students are never exclusively “yours” or “mine.” Every student in the building is our student first and foremost. #LeadInclusion #EdChat #UDL #UDLchat #Inclusion #EdLeadership

Great afternoon welcoming our grownups in for AEW. Students have been describing how environmental changes affect living things. Today we made prehistoric dragonfly models and compared them to the dragonfly size of today. @Lutherville_Lab

Come. On. 🥹

“Look, Ms.Williams! I found symmetry in nature! That’s one of our vocabulary words!” @BCPS_ELA @Lutherville_Lab

After reading Patterns in Nature in ELA students found or created patterns in nature during recess. @BCPS_ELA @Lutherville_Lab
