Elementary TUSD Music in the classroom looks and sounds very different while in the hybrid model, but look at that engagement. I will say, I kind of miss the recorders. 🎺 #distancelearning Heritage Elementary Tustin Unified School District

Happy New Year! Gently easing our way into 2021. 🌊

Back at at school for the second half of the most interesting year ever. This round, more self-care! Let’s start with staying hydrated!!! Welcome back friends!! 💦 Tustin Unified School District Heritage Elementary

This week’s book line up in 3rd grade. We are tired. We are saddened. However, we are also hopeful. We will show up. We will keep showing up. Our kids need us. Our country needs us. We are teachers. ❤️ We Are Teachers @peterhreynolds Susan Verde

I watched this yesterday! Soooo good!!! Must have for starting fractions!

SOUND ON! 🔊Listen to these 3rd graders cheering about MATH! They were SO into this Graham Fletcher 3-Act Math Task! Their discussion started slow, but with a little questioning they were fully invested, & THIS was the result! We ❤️ math Heritage Elementary Tustin Unified School District #hybridlearning

This week’s #OnWednesdaysWeRead book is a recommendation from our school counselor. We are ever so grateful for all she does! This is such a beautiful book, with such a beautiful message. 🤎🤍🖤🧡❤️Swipe to read one students reflection and inference work! Heritage Steam

Dreaming of the days when my class was this small—can we please go back to 20:1? Waiting on a few Ss to finish their avatars, but couldn’t wait to share this adorable Valentine class photo made with Pixton! The Ss loved designing themselves—so realistic! Try it! Heritage Elementary

Such a fun morning learning with Tustin Unified School District and ART of TEACHING! I always walk away from the Empowered Learning Conference with so many good ideas! Also, just “being” with @meganlfranke is such a joy!

Today’s #OnWednesdaysWeRead book was Be You! by @peterhreynolds. It was read to us by Bobby Okereke! The kids were so excited learn about about Bobby growing up in Tustin! What a great way to kick off #ReadAcrossAmericaWeek!

Thank you Tustin - Santa Ana Rotary for providing trees to our Heritage Elementary 3rd graders every year! It’s always such a special memory for them. We really enjoyed Mr. Carlson’s jokes this year!

We have been using these Graham Fletcher fraction fluency cards during our math warm up and they have been MAGIC! The students cheer when we get to the fraction practice. I’m very hesitant to laminate, but these were worth it. We use them everyday!

So hard to pick a favorite part of our Math Teacher Lounge interview with @meganlfranke, but her critique of the idea of "mastery" is so convincing and important IMO. Watch the rest at mathteacherlounge.com.

Thank you ART of TEACHING for providing teachers with the opportunity to take this Graham Fletcher fractions workshop! I will never look at teaching fractions the same way again! I could watch module 1 & 2 over and over! So insightful!! Heritage Elementary
