Today I handed over my teaching materials to a brand-new #teacher. It’s the end of an era for me, but the beginning of something amazing for her. #kindergarten #bestgradeEVER

Today was brought to you by the letter P…for pivot. Even the best laid plans need flexibility. Thankful to present to a group of educators who were able to express their needs and allow a big shift to happen. #pivot #deepbreath #ufli #progressmonitoring #itswhatwedo

Last week a former students passed and then two days later a sweet friend. Life is so fragile. Hug your people. Forgive others. Tell people you love them. Life is short. Make life count!

It’s been a great week of collaboration and planning. From explicit instruction to supporting #pd for LEAs. 25-26, I can’t wait to see what you will bring. #instructionalcoach #explicitinstruction #thankful

Driving to work with a view this morning really set the tone for the day to be amazing. #sunrise #reflections #instructionalcoach

Shoutout to the Hemlock Huskies 6–12 teachers, hands down the BEST audience! Your energy, laughs, and engagement around explicit instruction were next level. We came for PD but left wanting to be honorary Huskies. #pullthesled Kids First Saginaw Intermediate School District

Left a big part of my heart at college today. Paige, go do great things! #fireup

🗣️🗣️🗣️CHORAL RESPONSE! When every student answers every question, you multiply practice opportunities, surface misconceptions instantly, and build fluency. This FREE one-page guide shows how to implement it with clarity and consistency. newsletter.jamieleeclark.com/p/choral-respo…

It was a beautiful ride to work today. #sunrise #reflections #gratitude

“Mountains move with just a little faith!” Worship music to help my heart this morning. Kindness and respect are a lost art and I’m losing faith in humanity. #worship

We are ready for the new week after a night of chasing the northern lights! #motivation #clearmind #nweaweek

Monday, here we go! #foggy #buticanseeclearlynow

Building number sense and fine motor skills in kindergarten today! I love when students want me to join their centers! #reflections #numbersense #math #kindergarten

Kindergarten, you’ll always be my favorite. #rectangles #moremath #extrahands

New pencil grips for a kindergarten! #finemotor

Happy Fall! #fireupchips #happyhome

We tried a new rotation during centers today and it was a huge success. A little subitizing, a little phonics all in one. #kindergartenforthewin

When the toughest day ends with a surprise visitor! #fireupchips

Another chapter starting for Drew. #NHS #scholarship #leadership #service #character
