Great books to read and amazing field trips taken! We are in the business of achieving greatness in 5th grade ❤️🐾@ColumbiaES_fcps @smithsonian

A gorgeous day @ColumbiaES_fcps where everyone is included and plays well together ❤️🐾. These kids are awesome!

After tests we get creative! The students are using their knowledge of the cultural universals to create a museum about a culture they created. Creativity is intelligence having fun! - Einstein

Reading is thinking! We are working on learning from the books we read and being able to successfully communicate our thoughts. What can we learn from the choices a character makes in a book?

This brings joy to my heart…so excited to kickoff the year with these amazing @ColumbiaES_fcps educators! @ColumbiaES_PTA #smallschoolbigheart @fcpsnews

I am officially DONE with grad school!!!! It took me 1 year, and I passed my Capstone Project with NO CORRECTIONS!!!! Thank you to everyone who helped to support me and my family this year. Neil, you put up with a lot ❤️. I am looking forward to joining the world again!

Happy Retirement to my two role models! I’m so grateful I got to have you two by my side throughout my first two years of teaching❤️🤍 @rrpatel3 @ColumbiaES_fcps

@AtomicTeacha Looks like a fantastic class! B loved it ❤️. Thank you for being an outside the box teacher! You are appreciated 😊

Character Operation was a success. 💉 ✅ Students “operated” on their protagonists by diagnosing character traits using text evidence. It was hard work, but my students have lots of patients! 😉 #RWTDeveryday

Such an amazing class ❤️ @ColumbiaES_fcps #smallschoolbigheart

Poets in @dana_ces 5th grade class shared their amazing poems at their Poetry Cafe! Snaps! #smallschoolbigheart @fcpsr2
