If you have trouble stretching your paycheck to pay for rent, or have trouble deciding to pay for childcare or long-term care, or have trouble figuring out if you’re going to fill your refrigerator or fill your prescription drugs — I know you. I will fight for you.

The most effective “remote” teaching will spark learning, not simply cover content. Give your students questions to pursue, not just answers to accept. Give them something to create, not just something to complete. #FutureDriven

I thought this after day 1...BUT I will do my very best, learn ALOT, stay positive, and know if I keep my students and their families in mind, we will all be okay!

Love this idea😬

It may seem like all your efforts aren’t making a difference right now. You may question your ability to reach your students. But you ARE making a difference beyond what you know. You keep trying. You keep making connections. Be kind to yourself. You’re doing the impossible.

Perks of DL: the kids can see my face AND impromptu guest appearances ❤️😂🐶 #kisses

I am surviving.

As I got out my classroom decorations and wondered what I should do,a little lump formed in my throat. Then I thought, I’m still decorating for my students! We will have a different December together but it’s still going to be FUN! I miss their faces❤️

Kids need books to keep them creatively engaged over the summer! So I’m giving away 50 copies of my latest activity book, Give This Book a Cover — one set of 25 here, one on Instagram. If you can get these books into kids’ hands, RT this tweet and follow me to enter to win them!

It’s impossible to grow as a teacher, a principal, as an educator, or as a person, unless you are willing to change. Growth requires change. It requires different ways of thinking, acting, and leading. You cannot stay the same and succeed in a world that is not the same.

Getting ready for a new school year! I love that our principal gave us the go ahead to “just make our walls more colorful❤️” TCU2905
