Love creating positive self talk. On the way out the door they say “be awesome” coming in it’s “I’m awesome!” I will be changing the character trait throughout the year! @WESWildcat

@mrsuremovich @WESWildcats2 @teachingmuseum @achismar @STEMSLC It was SO much fun!

1st grade @WESWildcats2 are botanists today thanks to the @teachingmuseum crew! Splitting seeds to better understand the parts and needs of plants! @achismar @misseppert #stem @STEMSLC

Sometimes kids come to school to learn. Sometimes kids come to school to be loved. Many times kids come to school for both.

Todd Whitaker always has the right words. @ToddWhitaker. I couldn't agree more. #CurriculumIN

This year, our 1st graders have been working on the problem, “how might we help others prepare and respond to extreme weather”. Unfortunately, there was an outbreak of tornados in the Midwest just a week ago. Fortunately, our 1st graders were ready to respond! #stem #steam #pbl

Shoutout to @misseppert for always working tirelessly to accelerate the learning for all her students! @WESWildcats2 teachers and staff, let’s retweet this in order to win this amazing educator a prize! #SMFAllStars #RetweetChallenge #FCSProud #Education

@TeachChilds So glad you are incorporating it!!!

During October, we are focusing on encouraging ourselves and our peers every time we walk in and out of the classroom. “I can do this!” is a great way to start learning! S/O to @misseppert for sharing this with me years ago.

Reading outside is good for the soul 🥰

A beautiful display that shows the power of literacy integration into the arts. @ArtWithMsG @WESWildcats2 #TheDot #LiteracyIntegration #STEAM #integrationiskey

Wrapping up our seasons and weather unit with group projects. Can’t wait to hear what the kiddos have to share about their season!

Who knew musical 10frames were so much fun?I played a song and when I stopped the kids had to count the number of objects on the 10frame. Then they wrote the number on the whiteboard, what one more and one less than the number was. In the end we identified how many bundles we had

Our class got a special treat at the end of the day! @WoodlandES_METI came in and read to us one of her math books! The kids has SO much fun and were actively engaged! Thank you Mrs. Porter!!!

This photo makes my heart smile so big. I took this after checking on the boys as they made their way to the clinic. I love how he was showing empathy for one of his classmates 💕

Yesterday we talked about our class being thought of as a family. They were asked to draw a self portrait to add into our family. Safe to say they loved this!

About to have our masters!! @ashley_ausburn_

@MalloryHall12 Looks amazing!!

@stacey_schaff and I are ready to welcome our new classes with a lot of positivity!! 🎉

My advice on conferring. Just start doing it. Don’t stress about choosing the perfect teaching point or having the most beautiful toolkit. The more you do it, the better you become. Worst case scenario: You get to chat with one of readers, just you & them.
