@JJWatt my baby is convinced this ornament is of his daddy, not the famous JJ Watt 😂. He goes to the tree and talks to it everyday 💙❤️

@Dr_BWatson @LamarCISD Congratulations!

I can’t express enough how amazing this week has been. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to serve. Thank you, @LamarCISD! #WeAreLamarCISD

@MrsLeeHistory That looks so fun!

Whoever came up with this Funko Pop Head project for famous Americans was a genius! The kids have had a lot of fun creating their custom pop heads, and I'm loving their creativity! ❤️🇺🇲 #endoftheyearfun #americanhistory #projecttime #socialstudies

@MrsLeeHistory 😂😂😂ohh Michael. It’s a classic

I love a good game of Flyswatter to review! #staarreview #socialstudies #americanhistory #growingchampions

@Mrs_DGreen @TISDDPES @TomballISD Oh my goodness that looks awesome!

Today my students and I performed surgery…ECR surgery that is! They had a blast and got so into the lesson on the importance of explaining our evidence. #makelearningfun @TISDDPES @TomballISD

@MrsLeeHistory Omg so funny! 😂

@MrsBanksNotes My friend has a summer bday so he gets his fake bday party @ school tomorrow. I made his cake & it reminded me of when you had us celebrate Zack B's "bday" on May 4th. I was so confused why he was confused by the bday decorations I had hung up on his door! 🤣🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

@ms_jnguyen @SmithMS_CFISD @GiniHowell @JenniferBaek3 @modiheide @ErickaGood63503 @msjozwiakmath @MrsSpyrka Awww! Happy birthday, Julie!

@MrsLeeHistory That’s amazing!

Our soldiers are amazing! Willing to put their lives on the line to keep not only America safe, but the whole world, AND willing to take the time to write a note to students back at home- This right here is why I love my country and our service men and women ❤️ 🇺🇸 #ProudAmerican
