Today was our End of the Year Beach Bash! 🏖️ We went snorkeling, zip lining, whale watching, & more!🐳🤿 Thank you @Ms_CheckBCPS for the fun idea! And of course @MrsRiscignoBCPS and I had to wear our matching last day of school shirts! @chasebcps @twilkinsBCPS @cbanksbcps

@lphelps_ @kblannard @MelissaDiDonato @RJones_8 Aww what lucky teacher’s to have you! ❤️

They’re here! Table top, magnetic white boards that are the perfect size for remote instruction. Teachers picking up supplies next week will want their magnetic letters for phonics lessons! @kblannard @MelissaDiDonato @RJones_8

Trying to build some routines at home during our time off. HW, centers and lots of outside play/walks are saving the day! Missing my students ❤️

We are all unique puzzle pieces, but together we are one family! Poster made by Mrs. Riscigno’s 2nd grade class. “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose.”-Dr. Seuss ❤️ @chasebcps

March 2 is Dr. Seuss’s birthday! We researched his life, made rhyming hats, and read all sorts of Dr. Seuss books!

We really did have the BEST volunteers today. We are so grateful to our loving and supportive community! Thanks for making today amazing!!

@Mrs_GoodwinBCPS They are so lucky to have you!!!!

So much love in our room always,but especially today for Valentine’s Day! Love hearing what my students love about school! My heart filled with joy when students said me and how they love everything about our class!🥰♥️

2nd graders did an awesome job sharing their animal research projects with parents, teachers and other students at Chase! @chasebcps @Mrs_GoodwinBCPS @twilkinsBCPS

These awesome second graders enjoyed very special visitors today! Mrs. Riscigno’s parents and her two oldest children. Albert and Rosemary loved seeing were their mommy works. Mr. Waters and Rosemary (who’s in first grade) read a book to the class! How brave!📚👩🏼‍🏫✔️

Hope you had a safe and happy Halloween! My kids had a great time trick or treating. The weather was so nice! 💀🎃👻

HAPPY HALLOWEEN FROM 2ND GRADE! 👻🎃@chasebcps @twilkinsBCPS @MrsRiscignoBCPS

Thanks @Mrs_GoodwinBCPS for this super fun and engaging geometry activity!!! The kids loved building their shapes and describing their attributes. @chasebcps

Our class pledge. 😍 So proud of my class! They came up with the chant and movements to go along with each promise. We start each day with it during morning meeting as a quick reminder of expectations. @ConsciousD @chasebcps

Second graders were working hard in small groups and centers today! 📚@chasebcps

2nd grade working hard in math! @chasebcps

Rosemary’s first day of 1st grade and Mommy’s 10th year of teaching! 📝❤️✏️

If after glancing at your class list, you engage in a campaign to switch kids out of your class based on information you received from their teacher from last year you need to check yourself. You've determined your comfort is worth more than their success. I was that child.

So excited for this school year! @Mrs_GoodwinBCPS @biemer_mary @chasebcps

I frequently hear teachers talk about kids not doing “the work.” The work the work the work. Stop caring about the work... Care only about what they learn from the work. I’ve seen many kids doing tons of work & learning zero from it. #edchat #tlap #KidsDeserveIt #thatonekid
