Kate Smith

It’s Teacher Appreciation Week! To celebrate, I’m giving away two class sets of A Work in Progress, one here and one on Instagram. EDUCATORS — to enter here: RT this tweet and follow me. Bonus entry: tag a fellow teacher who deserves these. THANK YOU, teachers, for ALL you do!

We had such a beautiful day with this amazing group of 8th grade girls! 💜 We stepped out of our comfort zones and helped empower each other. Everyone left today feeling more beautiful than when they arrived 🥰 @KateSmithLBMS @hemmerd1 #BeautifulMe @lbeachms1

Excited to spend the day with 8th grade students talking about self-esteem 💕 @obie_lbms @JessicaHemmerd1

“Never let anyone—any person or force—dampen, dim, or diminish your light”- John Lewis. Amazing job by the students and staff at the Black History Through Music Celebration! @xilento , @natasha_nurse , @MrKramme

A little different this year, but still a great first day meeting my new students! @lbeachms1

@pvlbooks_lbms Yes!!! I like Mac.

A3: I didn't think about this. I just accepted that he didn't have one. I like the idea of going off his name though, Mac. #FSMSummerread

There is something fishy going on with my tweets...adds to the mystery theme of tonight's chat! A blank image 👇🤔 #FSMSummerRead

Q4: 😂 I was cracking up when Peephole was attempting to tell Babbage the made up story of the missing cat! I really felt for the kid. 😂 #FSMsummerread

@LorraineRadice1 I love this question!
