Interactive writing. A quick way to nudge the students forward. Today’s focus was on finger spaces between words. #holmes #iteachk #kinder #writingworkshop #springlake

Thank you Spring Lake fire Department for visiting and letting us tour the truck! My kids LOVED it! #springlake #holmes #iteachk

Today’s lesson had students being the teacher. I loved giving them an opportunity to teach all they learned to their stuffies. They have owned their skills through practice, playing, acting and listening. There’s no place like H♥️lmes! #springlake #iteachk #lucyphonics #holmes

Tie-dye day with my favorite littles!! #holmes #springlake #iteachk

You won’t find critters as cute as mine! Halloween parade 2021 🎃starting on River steet!

Me waking up and remembering yesterday 💚🤍#sparty #gogreen

We love when Mindful Pete comes to teach us! Educators know learning occurs once behaviors are under control and kids feel safe. Love that my district has these resources for kids. They are growing up in unprecedented times.

My FAVORITE time of the day, itime! Meeting kids one on one at their level and practicing foundational skills 💯💯💯 #iteachk #holmes #springlake

Faves ♥️🤍. Taking time to discuss mental health and making connections as a staff while our boss feeds us chocolate and LISTENS. Making in the moment, on the spot changes to help staff. These are the things that matter. Not book studies and paperwork. Educators NEED this.

Convinced my mom to quit her job and join me! She’s a Laker now! Bring your mom to work day-EVERYDAY! There’s no place like H♥️lmes! #holmes #springlake

Sight word scavenger hunt today! They loved looking for all their snap words in hidden places!! #iteachk #holmes #phonics

Slowing down to make pictures of kindness to friends. Love how they take their time and make their pictures so special for a friend in need.

Hunting for Snap Words! #iteachk #springlake #holmes #snapwords

Pajama day and sorting word families! #holmes #kinder #phonics

Powerful learning today. Such great conversation about leveled books and interactive read aloud. Nothing better than leaving a training with things I can implement TOMORROW! There’s no place like H♥️lmes!! #springlake #holmes #readingworkshop #iteachk #backatit

Talking about Heart Smart expectations and how to be in school! Love my little kinders!!
