Mrs. Donut-Making DeLorenzo jumped right in at Duck Donuts to serve up some delicious donuts for the @desmaresschool Dolphins this afternoon! Thank you to our awesome PTO for organizing this event and to Mrs. DeLorenzo for decorating some tasty treats!

@MrsGutierrezBF I LOVED seeing this! I was Soli’s student teacher from TCNJ when she had Ms. Kocsis! What a small world- recognized you right away!! ❤️

Being featured on the cover is an incredible honor. As someone who has often been the only Latina in the room, this moment feels bigger than an accomplishment—it feels like representation, resilience, and hope. 23 years of learning, growing & showing up for up for students.

I had the best day meeting some of my new readers, as well as reuniting with some of my readers from the fall! Remember: We Are Thoughtful Energetic Readers! @desmaresschool

@IMSEOG- thank you for the amazing OG training that built my background for this lesson!

How is syllable division like making slice and bake cookies? Third grade readers are about to learn the recipe! @desmaresschool

Thank you SO much, @LindsayKemeny! I cannot wait to read this and share with my colleagues at @desmaresschool! What a great start to the week! 🩵

@LindsayKemeny This would be an amazing resource for us to have at @desmaresschool!

So excited for day two of “Reading with Ms. Rowe!” @desmaresschool

At today’s Literacy Academy session, we talked about launching the year, including students taking ownership of the way the classroom library is organized. Check out these teachers sorting books within small groups, just like their students will in a few weeks! @FlemRarSchools

Today is the first session of Literacy Learning Academy for the 2025-2026 school year! We can’t wait to talk about all things literacy! @FlemRarSchools

@MrsBurns231 Wishing you the absolute best of luck!

After 20 years, today was bittersweet. I’m thankful for everyone that has supported me over the years…onto Readington tomorrow #notgoodbye #20years

Thank you so much to the amazing @desmaresschool PTO for treating us to some delicious snacks and drinks today! It is so appreciated! 🐬🩵

One of my absolute favorite days of the year to be a @desmaresschool Dolphin! Who is ready to go shopping?

Congratulations to my very own kindergarten teacher, Ms. McDougald, on her retirement! She was the first person who inspired me to become a teacher. She is an amazing educator, colleague, and friend. I am so thankful for the impact she has had on my life! @FlemRarSchools

It’s hard to believe that today is the last book sampling for second graders involved in Lunch Book Buddies! I have LOVED facilitating social book clubs for students from all classes to share the love of reading, talk about some amazing books, & make new friends! @desmaresschool

Summer break is ON! ☀️ To celebrate, I'm giving away a copy of my new book, 7 Mighty Moves Reading Resources! To enter: Just Like & RT this post! Winner announced June 1, '25. Good luck! (Shipping in 🇺🇸 only.)

The highlight of my Friday: being invited by these two second grade reading rockstars to listen in to their book club meeting in Mrs. Hilke and Ms. Dlouhy’s class. They LOVED using @JSerravallo’s Talking Map to build their conversation about Mouse Soup! @RobertHunterES

Mrs. Kunz’s third grade readers analyzed book reviews written by students from all over on the Spaghetti Book Club website! Just wait until they write their own reviews and recommendations! @desmaresschool

The Rowe sister tradition continues! It was a great morning seeing so many families from across the district at the Color Run! Thank you to all of the amazing volunteers for such a great event, and thank you to the community helpers who kept us safe! @FlemRarSchools
