@PaigeScott3rd inspires me daily! She is the sweetest, kindest person. You can see how much she cares about her students in everything she does. She makes me a better math and reading teacher! #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

@jrubyteaches inspires me to be a better teacher by showing me new and creative ways to do things! At the beg of year we shared books on why it's important to learn people's names correctly. Love how she makes her class so inclusive! #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

@PyrosEmpowers inspires me to show up with a smile and lots of energy! Our class said they need more of his energy to do our wake-ups in the morning! #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

@LearnWithMrsO inspires me every single day to show up and do everything with a smile! She is always shining and I'm so blessed she is our fearless team leader! ❤ #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

@WWECounselor inspires me daily to be a calm spirit and channel my emotions. She meets with our students who might just need a little extra love that day, and she always does it with a smile on her face. ❤ #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

Someone who inspired me today was our trainer from NWEA today. She showed new ways on how to analyze data to better help all our students! A goal without a plan is just a wish. #WWETwitter2021 #MelissaSchools #WWEmpowers

@LearnWithMrsO Aww love you ❤

Another source of inspiration: @ReadWithMrsB! She fiercely looks after her students and connects with them on such a deep level! #WWEtwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

@jrubyteaches Love you hall buddy ❤

Another inspiring teacher: @ReadWithMrsB! She comes to school every morning excited to make a difference in her students’ lives. She’s always thinking of ways to make a bigger impact in her classroom! I’m lucky to have her as my hall buddy! #WWEtwitter2021 #WWEmpowers

Something awesome around our campus that we all enjoy is our new playground! Perfect for playing or enjoying the nice fall weather! 🍂 #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

Using my doorbell (yes, a doorbell) in the classroom is one of my favorite classroom management tips. Students know that if they hear it go off, they need to stop and listen for directions! #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

@LearnWithMrsO We love our pen pals!

This is my first year having pen pals, and the kids love receiving and writing letters so much! This is definitely great motivation for writing! #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

Our class promise and expectations. We came up with different ideas on what we believe our classroom should look like. I love when they remind each other to be peaceful with their words and actions! #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

Love being able to see how my team implements the same activity, differently! We love growing and learning from one another! #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

Turn and talk is a great opportunity for students to share and teach each other what they know. It fosters collaboration and participation in our learning! #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

We enjoy using EPIC Books in our classroom! It gives us access to lots of amazing and different books! #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

@abeets121 We were doing a brain break to get us back on track after recess!

Thankful that we get to use our technology every day to do brain breaks that help us practice mindfulness and allow us to get back on track! #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools

We have been loving going on a word hunt for our spelling words each week! It helps us see the words in multiple ways. #WWETwitter2021 #WWEmpowers #MelissaSchools
