Ms. Estes brought the heat today🔥 Thankful for a boss who pushes us to be better in all aspects! 👏 White Settlement ISD Blue Haze Elementary #EmpoweringBearsBHE

We are getting ready for our first graders!!!! 💕#empoweringbearsbhe

So thankful for my Blue Haze Elementary family! Love y’all! 💕💕😊

Thankful. Thankful for these listening ears. Thankful for the fact when I freak out cry and laughter at the same time, they remain calm. Thankful we have each others back on this crazy first week. 💕 #empoweringbearsbhe

Ms. Caruso, “So when we doin’ a room transformation? I wanna wear sweats?” Get you a teacher BFF y’all. Love her so much! 💕 😂😂😂 #metoo #mybrainsthinking

Teachers need to remember that their mistakes are learning opportunities too! Reflect, adapt, stay positive!

A2: Being self-aware of our own experiences & how it affects the way we respond to challenging situations. #BHEBookStudy

A3: I doubt myself and my abilities ALL. THE. TIME. I needed this reminder that I am the best resource for my Ss. I can provide love, safety and a predictable environment. #BHEBookStudy

Ms. Caruso YESSSSS AND THE BEST RESOURCE FOR ME. #BHEbookstudy

Respect is earned, not given. This includes student and teacher relationships.

If Kindergarten had more dramatic play, blocks, kitchen, housekeeping, art, and music...the students would have time time practice their social emotional, problem solving, and self regulation skills. Then, their brains will be more prepared to learn foundational content & skills.

Y’all Ms. Caruso and I decided to do a #challengeoftheday and we are amazed at the learning that is occurring outside of the classroom! 😍💕 #fortheloveoffirstgrade #empoweringbearabhe

To my white educators: Today, you’re posting about social justice, buying antiracist books, following brown folks, and temp changing your profile pictures. (thread) Here’s what I need you to do tomorrow:

I’m excited to announce that due to the incredible demand, #AntiracistBaby the board book is now a picture book! The hardcover picture book drops on July 14th. usatoday.com/story/entertai…

Currently reading #HowToBeAnAntiracist 📚 “Denial is the heartbeat of racism.” Who’s reading with me? 👀

Race is a social construct to benefit white people and harm people of color.... in case you did not know....

I loved diving deep into our reading skills today! 🐠 #bhebettertogether

Thank you San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance for bringing so much joy to our classroom this morning 🤩 y’all are the best!
