Sometimes you have to pause your lesson to look at a baby bunny outside the window. Everyone meet Jasper. 🐰@TurnerCreekES

What better way to explore equivalent fractions than with pizza!!🍕 @TurnerCreekES

Popsicles and PJs to celebrate being the top earning class in Dreambox and reaching 100 compliments in a row!! So proud of these treefrogs💚 @TurnerCreekES

Wahoo! So proud of my kiddos! On to round 2🎉

It’s a beautiful night to celebrate the Read-a-Thon on the roof. @TurnerCreekES thank you to all of our families who support our school community.

These treefrogs decided to spread kindness by leaving bookmarks in books for others to find. Keep an eye out next time you swing by the library. How will you spread kindness today? @tcelibrarian @PosProject @TurnerCreekES

We had a blast learning about force and motion today! Shoutout to the Durham Life and Science Museum! @lifeandscience @TurnerCreekES

Thankful for my team and our mini Thanksgiving breakfast feast this morning. 😋 @TurnerCreekES @MsT_in3 @MsArnoneTCE @McCommonsCrew @LaPortaDiscover @MrsVolland

What better way to determine how characters would react to a situation than acting it out!? @TurnerCreekES

These kids sure know how to make a teacher feel special! Not sure how I got so lucky!🥰❤️

Shoutout to Mrs. Volland for showing me how to make marbled bookmarks! My kiddos were so excited to us them. They help remind us of our reading challenges and strategies we can use to overcome them! @TurnerCreekES

Becoming an expert on a problem and then teaching the class how to solve. These treefrogs had so much fun becoming the teachers for the day. Impressed by their bravery and teamwork! @TurnerCreekES @PosProject

We learned so much about local government today from the Mayor of Cary, @MayorWeinbrecht! Thank you for talking with our @TurnerCreekES third graders! @McCommonsCrew @MsT_in3

Check out how @MsT_in3 3rd grade class reflects on their week. What went well? What can we do better? I love how everyone in this class takes responsibility for for maintaining a strong community.

Biggest take away from #MathSummit2022: When helping students form their math identity, communicate that Mistakes are expected, Mistakes are accepted, Mistakes are inspected, and then Mistakes are corrected. Can’t wait to use this with my students!!

Got to do my favorite community building activity today! (Stolen from @Marie5Elizabeth ) We talked about what makes a good compliment and how to lift up others. Here are some of my favorites! #otherfrogsmatter @TurnerCreekES
