So proud of our ISD Grade 5 students and their inspirational art teachers for adding such evocative and unique pieces of art to our school environment. #installationart #waybetterthananythingicouldspraypaint

It was so great to have visitors from ICS Addis Grade 4 Hub at ICS Addis Ababa here in ISD Grade 5 today! It was strangely comforting to hear that both the successes and struggles of co-teaching seem to be universal! #cantwaittovisit #thanksforthecoffee

Looking for some short historical fiction told from multiple perspectives for our #whereweareinplaceandtime unit. Any suggestions? Central idea: "Every story has more than one perspective." Holla atcha girl!!

Today: Me, in genuine delighted shock at the amount and quality of work a child completed: "Wow! You did a shi-" Child, with a slyly raised eyebrow: "A shed-load of work?" Thank you, child, for offering your embarrassed teacher a moment of grace.

Finishing off the first semester with the ritual burning of successes and challenges in 2018. Nothing like the cleansing power of FIRE. Thanks @BreedloveCarol for your outdoor skills and for hosting us in the reception ISD Outdoor Learning garden!

Turning off my various social media feeds over the past month and a half (except Instagram. I cannot give up Instagram) has been extremely good for my productivity and mental health. Happy to be back feeling a bit more balanced. #butisitbadthatineededabreakinthefirstplace

Q2- What brings you joy and energy? Getting my hands in the dirt and taking care of my plants and flowers. Helping something grow and flourish helps me to do the same. #PubPDeurope #itsnotgoodformymanicurestho

Q3- My advice to a teacher just starting out: Go home and go to sleep. Youll never finish it all tonight, and I promise it will still be there in the morning. Also, fake it til' you make it. #PubPDeurope #alsoreadingcornersaregreatfornapping

In the midst of mediating a very heated recess discussion re: football goal usage, and the one child uninterested in compromise was suddenly silenced by an unexpected bee sting to the back of the neck. Mother Nature: the ultimate mediator. #dontworryhewastotallyfine

How to very successfully build a Twitter following in one simple step: Ignore Twitter for two months and then feel upset that you still only have 44 followers. #killingit

Email from Twitter saying my account may have been compromised, I log in panicking that my data is now in the hands of nefarious tweet-villains. All seems to be well, and now I'm tweeting about it...first tweet in 3 months...did Twitter just troll me?! #COINCIDENCEORCONSPIRACY

Only took a workshop with @kjinquiry to get me back on Twitter! Great to have some thinking affirmed and some thinking challenged this weekend. Thanks Chapters International for providing such great online PD opportunities!

A pernicious source of bad decisions in our lives… Knowing just enough about a topic to think you’re right, but not enough to know you’re wrong.

My yearly sojourn back to Twitter to see if maybe this time I'll actually stick with it. Still took me an embarrassingly long time to find the Tweet button, this bodes very well.
