Mathematicians were talking through new concepts with one another and couldn’t stay away!

Outside of our room is decorated with welcome signs these amazing 4th graders made on the first day of school!

When two of your students don’t think it’s fair they have NWEA MAP testing tomorrow, and you don’t they create a personal test just for you. Ms. A and Ms. S, I have never seen such a beautiful test! (They even had an answer key prepared! 😄)

My 4th graders looked at the new facts and were able to say it is not Rosa Parks because they have different birthdays. Now, they did some independent research and determined it is Shirley Chisholm. (The kids also wanted to learn about Lonnie Johnson so he got on the board 😃)

Put up a mystery person and the kids guessed who she is! I wonder if the guesses will change with more facts added tomorrow? I loved the sharing of facts about Rosa Parks and the question of “Ms. Dolph, can I research when I get home?”

We're saddened and concerned by today's events. Many of you carry the additional burden of having to immediately address today's events in your classrooms tomorrow. In this thread, we'll share some resources we hope will help with your next class and the days to come.

One day, you lose a bet and have to dress up as a bunch of grapes. Another day, you are named Diane Kent-Parker First-Year Teacher for Millbrook High School! Congrats Ms. Robison. @danak728 @Millbrook_PTSA

Does your family usually do a Taco Tuesday? Consider moving it a night for our Chipotle fundraiser this Wednesday!

Going to be addressing brain and body state this week as we explore choices!

For a student’s birthday, I asked my kids to private message me a word they think when they think of Allie. It took these kids less than 5 minutes to come up with all these amazing words and more. It’s only been one week of class and they are already so supportive!

It can be hard to remember this, but personal growth is the goal! Sketchnote via Sylvia Duckworth Quote by Rushton Hurley

COVID-19 isn't the only existing health illness today. Please make sure to get your annual check-up or follow-up. Here is a list of clinics that offer free or low cost health care despite immigration status.

"Educators cannot pretend that anti-racist work doesn’t exist simply because their student body isn’t affected." Here are goals predominantly white schools can work toward in anti-racist work. @biblio_phile tolerance.org/magazine/all-s…

As educators, it is our responsibility to create culturally sensitive, safe learning environments for all students and to stop coronavirus-based racism. COVID-19 does not recognize race, nationality, or ethnicity. #antiracism #203Diversity #Together203 nasponline.org/resources-and-…

“We live in a world in which we need to share responsibility. It’s easy to say ‘It’s not my child, not my community, not my world, not my problem.’ Then there are those who see the need and respond. I consider those people my heroes.”

Mindfulness can be difficult for students who have experienced trauma. Here are nine guidelines teachers can use to make sure mindfulness practice is helping students, not hurting. @Kschwart ow.ly/KsqW50ABxVZ

I love this visual from @BeaconHouseTeam We must regulate as a priority to help people feel safe, then we can begin to connect and rationalise! Wonderful resource! Thank you! 🙏❤️👏👍
