What an honor to be able to be apart of Dr. @pattiwood teaching her last class ever after 50 years in education! We truly do get to learn from the best here @SamfordEd Thank you for everything Dr. Wood!

@JanemMarlin is also ready for SUMMER ☀️ #finishstrong #professorsaretiredtoo @drscarbs25 @DrLizi

The craziness of all the donations for the gift bags as I mentioned in my previous tweet! Just so thankful! We felt like all of Amazon was delivered to our apartment! @DrLizi

A week ago today we left our urban education placement! I have been so grateful for this experience and have learned so much! I loved being able to bless my students with these goodie bags for them to take home! Thank you to everyone who donated! @DrLizi

Had the honor and privilege of getting to teach a student how to write and sound out his name today! #whywedowhatwedo @DrLizi

You don’t shape school culture in your office. You shape it in the halls, in the classrooms, in the lunchroom… engaging with those around you.

Tyrell (Age 7), after working with him all week, wrote his name for the very first time all by himself today! I wish everyone could’ve seen the look on his Face!! 🙌🏼😭 #rewarding @drscarbs25 @DrLizi @JanemMarlin

Loved getting to bless Mrs. Haskin’s 3rd grade class with some home made stools since their seats had done some time! MBE’s 3rd grade crew has my heart!!

@MsAThornbury @DrLizi Acknowledge + embrace!! What an amazing two step process!!

To be a culturally-responsive educator, one must acknowledge the beauty in the diversity within their classroom and embrace each students’ individual journey. This will result in positive relationships within the classroom. -PLC 5 @DrLizi

Teacher Appreciation week cards from MBE!! Don’t worry MBE students, we hope that we become teachers too! @kjbteach @DrLizi @MsSiskTeaches @JanemMarlin @drscarbs25

Today we practiced the art of building a bridge and learned how important it is to creat parameters for our students before handing out materials! @drscarbs25
