A2 I enjoy working with students who are not my regular students. Kids may finally understand a concept just by listening to a different teacher. #sharonstrong

Preach it, sistas! #sharonstrong

A4 model and practice, rinse and repeat #sharonstrong

Fifth grade has one designated group for kids who tested out of a topic. #sharonstrong

Lori_Gilchrist class is all about the green! #Hallowgreen

#forsythpln Lori Gilchrist here.

#forsythPLN A1-I love being outside at home and either working in the yard or building a fire if it's cool.

#forsythPLN A2: It depends. I have trusted colleagues and online colleagues that help flesh out ideas.

#forsythPLN A3: What I don't do before the holidays is start a long drawn out project...what I like to do is find a different type of game or activity to get and keep my kids' attention.

#forsythPLN A4-I like to take it easy and savor this time with my kiddos. These next 2 weeks will be over in a jif, then it's all downhill from there!

#forsythPLN A5: I try to be as helpful to my kids as possible, whether it's sitting down to explain what I just taught or helping a kid locate his missing jacket.

A1-Last year, I found out that they needed another virtual teacher. It was hard but I discovered how to do things differently and still get the job done. #sharonstrong

A2-My husband! It takes a special kind of man to marry a teacher. #sharonstrong

A3-I have created so many online math games to check if my kids are getting the concepts. #sharonstrong

A4-I love the outdoors. I enjoy working in my yard. Garden therapy. I also love to hike. #sharonstrong

A5-When I am overwhelmed, I usually circle the wagons. I just need some down time to think or even not think and let some time go by. #sharonstrong

A6-Speaking as a teacher almost at the end of this race, take time for you and your spouse. Especially, after your kids are grown, don't fill your time with school. (Take if from me.) Your students are just passing through, but family is forever. #sharonstrong

Awesome Fifth Graders!#SharonStrong #KeeferCash #7Mindsets
