🌾 No Need to "Plow" Through Prep..@DiffitApp made it incredibly easy to start Ag Week off with a baa-ng ! Add a topic and it yields high-quality, leveled resources faster than a startled chicken. @Promise_Leaders @KEDCGrants @KingWendy_m @DrJWEvansJr

FYI..We’re still reading across America over here with @Novel_Effects 📚✨…so GooD! @Promise_Leaders @KEDCGrants @KingWendy_m @DrJWEvansJr

Magic was in the air!✨ We went "All in for Ag" as we read with @Novel_Effect for The Tiny Seed, our classroom transformed into a windy garden, making our storytime a full sensory adventure! 🌬️We also got our hands "dirty" making a dessert. @KEDCGrants @Promise_Leaders

Donuts + @DiffitOfficial = The perfect Tech. Training! 🍩💻 I’m obsessed with how user-friendly Diffit is. It makes differentiation effortless and saves hours of prep time. What’s your favorite ways to use it? @KEDCGrants @Promise_Leaders @KingWendy_m @DrJWEvansJr

🍎 29 years in, and I’m still learning. During a PD @icivics shared @padlet TA. It can take a lesson plan from ICivics and shorten it to say… 20-minutes and make it first grade friendly! Yes, please! @Promise_Leaders @KEDCGrants @KingWendy_m @DrJWEvansJr

Presidents Day in Firstieland! After discussing the words and the meaning, we filled in the missing vocabulary words and recited the Pledge of Allegiance @Promise_Leaders @KEDCGrants @KingWendy_m

Presidents Day in Firstieland 🇺🇸 we deconstructed the Pledge of Allegiance to find the true meaning behind those big words, then did some "speed-learning" with @KET’s 60-second president bios. Our future leaders are officially on the job! 🎩✨@Promise_Leaders @KEDCGrants

Valentine’s Day teaching wouldn’t be completed without a little Love Monster reading @RBrightBooks. Thanks to @Novel_Effect for soundscape AND fun activity. @KEDCGrants @Promise_Leaders

When one of my Firsties asks to share their library find and we see it’s on @NovelEffect… you know it’s going to be a great day! 🐑🚙 There is nothing like those immersive sound effects to turn a read-aloud into a full-blown adventure. 10/10! 📚✨ @KEDCGrants @Promise_Leaders

Snow days are for leveling up! ❄️💻 Diving into @CivicEd_org today with their inquiry-based lessons and the graphic organizers are top-tier. Huge shout-out for the "Escaping Misinformation" lesson—exactly what we ALL need right now! 🔍📚 @Promise_Leaders @KEDCGrants

The face you make when the book comes to life😲❄️ with @Novel_Effect ! Our EKU Read America student had a blast while reading "Snow Day." It was the perfect "calm" before the actual snowstorm hit this week. Literacy is magic! 📚🧣 @Promise_Leaders @KEDCGrants

Still eggs-tatic about having @NovelEfforts in my room! The soundscapes set the mood, & the provided lessons are a total sunny-side up addition to my curriculum. Huge thanks to @joryjohn and @PeteOswald for such a great story, my Firsties ❤️ it! @Promise_Leaders @KEDCGrants
