Today a student says “Somebody just asked for my autograph in the hall and told me they’re a fan of our podcast” 🤩☺️ Thank you @mtamediacenter for broadcasting our episodes to the school. The ownership of this whole thing just went through the roof!

This year’s book club selection days were EPIC! 4th grade teachers wanted to make this day a bigger deal so the Martin Reading Cafe was born! 4th and 5th graders have made their choices. Let book club discussions begin! @MrsTammyLynn @ThompsonTechies @mta_marlins @Hall_Schools

Problem solving skills + teamwork = success! Marlins have been having a blast putting those skills to work and breaking out of @breakoutEDU challenges! @mta_marlins @Hall_Schools

What a fun morning learning about all things Eric Carle with kindergartners in our learning commons and story time garden.🐛 🦋 📚 @mta_marlins @MTA_MrsTipton @Shadburn_class @TroutmanMTA

Wow! These kindergartners from @Shadburn_class taught us so much about American symbols in their live museum. Bringing learning to life leaves deep imprints! @Hall_Schools @mta_marlins

@MrsTammyLynn Loved having your class today. Can’t wait to listen in on their discussions. Mrs. Rolader’s students had an amazing fish bowl discussion model!

Thank you Mrs. Kelly for helping us get off to a good start with our Book Clubs! We are so excited!!!
