Lions...THANK YOU! What a great first day. You wore masks, followed the arrows, and stayed socially distanced at lunch. I know it was different but you all did AMAZING! #RespecttheE

Our media center staff is so hard working and creative. Excited for my 4th block students to get their book deliveries tomorrow! Mrs. Jamieson @fzeyoung #choicereading

I’ve thought about how Chadwick Boseman and Black Panther helped fight against the single story of being Black. I hope with free copies our PLC can weave this into our unit on the power of stories and identity.

Taught my freshman about the curve of forgetting and had them interact with their theme notes. Thankful for @CPSAVID Battle High AVID and definitely missing my AVID kiddos.

That feeling when you get all the lesson plans done during nap time. It’s going to be a great week!

How a writer solves math problems. Also hoping I can fix that first math problem to fit in time for Great British Baking this fall. newyorker.com/humor/daily-sh…

How is switching schools during a pandemic? Thankfully my PGP meeting with my principal was very encouraging. Thankful for the support! @FZELIONS1

Students that take risks in their writing and that are just kind human beings. So thankful to have them in my class! ❤️

Sunday means good breakfast, family time, and planning my HOCO Spirit Week outfits!

Why we tell stories—

Accidentally twinning on meme day. This accurately depicts how we feel in 2020. #FZEHOCO2020

Jaime Posey and Blake Walls both got PORs from Mrs Franklin! Keep being leaders in the classroom and making good decisions! #respecttheE

Dedication to Dear Justyce during 1st hr made me cry. D & Z were in my freshman English class, & I know your impact has shaped them. Thank you @getnicced for helping students at Battle (& everywhere) to feel seen. Hoping all our students feel the love in these pages.

I miss my AVID kids so much! Happy to Zoom on my lunch to see those faces! ❤️

Good morning FZE! I am well rested and excited to get back to school. I hope you are too! We have a full week of school this week and then next week we conclude the 1st semester. You know what that means. It is almost final exam time. Here is the Final Exam Schedule.

“It's very dramatic when two people come together to work something out. It's easy to take a gun and annihilate your opposition, but what is really exciting to me is to see people with differing views come together and finally respect each other.”

Drawing through chapter 4 of Lord of the Flies. So many repeated symbols and ideas! Doodling is writing bringing the abstract into the concrete.

Adding #minari to my watch list. 🥰

Our librarian, Julie, is so creative and going the extra mile to get everyone reading this summer. So excited for this book!
