Google slides hands down is my favorite! I love being able to link everything into one place to keep myself organized throughout the day! Added bonus is being able to create interactive activities for students! #c2cinwb #roosevelt2020

Today Olaf gave the kinders a challenge! They had to collaborate in breakout rooms about how they could all play together with their different toys even though we aren’t together in person! #c2cinwb #wb2020 #roosevelt2020

My coworkers Lola and Dave take their jobs of sleeping and being cute very seriously. #c2cinwb #roosevelt2020

During our afternoon message today, we had a conversation about things you might tally to help you with counting. A student shared how she uses tally marks to keep track of how many leaves she has in her collection! #c2cinwb #wb2020 #roosevelt2020

I love integrating peardeck in my Google slides to get students engaged! We started our afternoon meeting off with a quick vote on which gingerbread book they like the most so far! Students love getting to drag the red dog! #c2cinwb #roosevelt2020 #kindergarten

Flipgrid is definitely a “go to” for kindergarteners to share their work and to contribute their thinking on a topic! #c2cinwb #roosevelt2020 #wb2020

Katie Carroll Way to go scholars! It's always fun to see and hear younger students sharing their voices + learning ‼️👏

Katie Carroll always created Google Slides to guide us through our day. Apparently that rubbed off on me after 2 years of co-teaching with her. Then Robert Belcourt took it up a notch and helped me add Peardeck into those slides. It keeps the Ss (and myself) on task! #c2cinwb

Thank you Randi Fogel for taking time out to help me with utilizing Literacy Footprints for guided reading and creating a personalized video just for my families! Ss and I absolutely love the books. So thankful! #c2cinwb #roosevelt2020 #wb2020 #literacyfootprints

So today, I got a surprise socially distant outdoor visit from a fellow husky staff member (and I mean this person texted saying “I’m outside your house” and totally surprised me.) #wb2020 and #roosevelt2020 has brought me more than amazing students. But also, best friends.

During our playtime, students are always leading discussions. It started with them playing “superheroes” and ended with a student asking everyone if they wanted to play Simon says and she led the whole game! I love sitting back and just taking it all in. #c2cinwb #roosevelt2020

Thank you Sage Wood for visiting our class today and creating a special game just for them! Students played “guess the movie.” A song was played, they then guessed which movie the song was from!! So much fun! #c2cinwb #roosevelt2020

I love seeing Breanne Massie tweets about jamboard. I am so intrigued by it and need to try it out ASAP!! #c2cinwb #roosevelt2020

I love how Miranda Joynt plays workplaces with partners! I have only been doing it whole group and will definitely start with partners in January!

Today we played “hangman” (I drew a cat instead) to practice our snap words. Ss loved this! They are even more excited to be able to play it when we are back in person soon! #wb2020 #wbinthecloud #roosevelt2020

Final score from Ford Field. West Bloomfield 41 - Davison 0. #LakerNation is the Division 1 state champion!!!! #WBTAKEOVER #onlyWB

Celebrating our phonics unit by doing Word School! Ss brought in a “student” from home to teach everything we have learned! #wb2020 #roosevelt2020

Students making ramps to cause gravity to “pull” down their ball! Then we added some roadblocks to cause a collision to happen. We love science!! #wb2020 #roosevelt2020 Roosevelt

Today we set up “reading play dates!” This group decided to do a familiar shared reading and act it out! #wb2020 #roosevelt2020 #lucycalkins #kindergarten
