#jeschat #12DaysTwitter Hi! I'm Rebecca Nichols and I teach 5th grade ELAR. Over Christmas break I plan to enjoy all my girls being home together for a few weeks! There will be lots of movies, games, laughter and cooking!

One goal I have for myself this new years is to simplify. Focus on what matters and what is most important. There are so many things surrounding us that are distractions, good things often, but still distractions. Stuff, activities, etc. Simplify! #12daystwitter #jeschat

Advice to a new teacher, stock up on papermate flair pens and gel pens, stickers and snacks! Also to journal your first year! #jeschat #12daystwitter

Our family loves game nights. #12daystwitter #jeschat

If you or someone you know doesn't have a Christmas tree, Free Trees at Waller Baptist Church tonight starting at 5:00! They were donated to us to give away, so share the news! #jeschat #12daystwitter

Come out tonight or tomorrow morning for a unique Christmas experience! Beautiful presentation of the Good News by our children and youth ministries, petting zoo, Hot chocolate and cookies, and lastly build a manger together as a family to take home. #jeschat #12daytwitter

I love my 5th grade team! #noplacelikejones #teachertribe #jeschat

I was inspired to teach by many wonderful teachers. My favorite elementary was Mrs. Collins for 2nd grade. Middle school was Mr. McBride, then in High school I was inspired by Mrs. Silvers and Mrs. Enis! I'm a teacher today because of these people! #jeschat #noplacelikejones

A song that describes me fairly well as a teacher is Hall of Fame by The Script

This is not my normal teacher inspirational post, but maybe a struggling teacher or admin needs this today. God doesn’t love you because he made you, but God made you because he loves you. He has a purpose and a plan for you! Never forget it.

Great ideas for using @Flipgrid in all subject areas.
