NEW: Our Harris County Local Health Authority has issued a Health Order requiring masks in schools and childcare centers.   Pediatric COVID19 cases are at all- time highs in Texas, and most schools haven’t even started yet.  We have no choice.

This week has been filled with my favorite things - lesson planning with teachers, leading PLCs on sheltered instruction, and pulling intervention groups. Taking a moment of gratitude bc I truly, truly LOVE the job I get to do and the people I’m in the work with JR Harris Elementary

I feel the same way Kylene Vasquez 😂 Definitely slipping on my Twitter game, but only bc my days have been full of my favorite things - leading PLCs, co-planning w/ Ts, coaching, and (new) teaching small group intervention! Wouldn’t trade this work for a million followers tho!
