Out of my Mind by Sharon M. Draper is our new read aloud! Hoping to inspire compassion and understanding while celebrating our differences. Amazing to see Mrs. Lukasiewicz lead the students through an activity where students created images to go along with Melody’s thoughts

When you announce your next read aloud and a former student’s brother says he heard it was boring… šŸ’”I know it can’t be so! When we come back from Spring Break: Theāš”ļøšŸ„·!

One of the hardest parts of getting my head shaved is I can never take a picture of it happening. Luckily I stole this from my coteacher! I’m honored to have been able to support children with cancer since my Hiawatha School colleagues donated $700 for St. Baldrick's Foundation #hiawathapride

At the end of Week 1 of The Lightning Thief, Melanie Walski led our students in a lesson on tackling the complex vocabulary that comes up in fantasy novels. The kids enjoyed this and then when we read later all the students were excited to point out the words they had just learned!

I realize I’m a little late to the party but we chose to spend part of #MayThe4th by drawing Ewoks, our class was also divided on whether they are cute or simply awkward toddler like creatures. I think they can be a bit of both!

Ten years ago I met a group of students that changed my career’s trajectory. I went from planning to teach in high school to loving my work with elementary students. Tonight, that group of young adults will graduate high school. I am beyond proud and thankful for all of you!

Despite being our first field trip in over two years it was incredible to see the kids celebrating together even when they didn’t hit a pin! What a day to cement more memories as a grade level.

10 years, I have been an educator for 10 school years now. To say that my job is challenging is an oversimplification. My career is stressful & heartbreaking, but it’s also fulfilling & beautiful. Being a teacher is always worth it, but after 10 years: goodbye hurts every time.

To say I’m proud would be an understatement, while to say I’m surprised would be a lie. I am honored to say I know her (I was even one of her teachers!) This young lady embodies the best qualities a person could possess and more importantly, those I hope to one day have!

This year marks 11 times I have been honored to raise money for St. Baldricks. This is especially impactful this year as I have convinced some co-workers to join me in ā€œbraving the shaveā€. Please consider donating to such an important cause stbaldricks.org/participants/m…

It’s hard to believe how quickly the years have begun to go. In 2016 I began teaching full time and had two students that really made an impact on my career, 9 years later and they are seniors getting ready to go out and change the world around them! #d100inspires
