Proud of Ks openness, thoughts, ideas, compliments and feedback during class meeting about recess concerns. “I really like E’s idea. I am trying to figure out how to make it work better.” #community #risktaking #problemsolving #respect Lizcville @MichaelCIrani Leslie Wills-Taylor

Meg Franco this!

I’m so frustrated with “we need to make sure they’re prepared for the next grade” as a justification for full days of online work for these babies. No. THE NEXT GRADE WILL HAVE TO CHANGE.

hearing Nolan Doyle VaSCL webinar Desmos resources— sharing focus on allowing kids to play, do, predict, create informal language, connect representations, and notice and wonder! Desmos is about all of this and kids using language to engage in math discourse. How cool is that?

At the end of each day, we share roses, thorns and buds from the day. The majority of roses yesterday were playing in the rain and splashing in puddles. That’s what Kindergarten should be! Meg Franco Meriwether Lewis Jennifer Underwood #puddlejumping #playingintherain #kindergartenlife

Tweet, tweet! What does your fab admin wear on Pajama Day? Why, bluebird pjs, natch! Meriwether Lewis Jennifer Underwood Laura Morris #mascot #bluebirds #schoolspirit

An Irish PhD student I know is out in Antarctica researching seabirds, and she's put the call out for teachers who would like to do a Zoom call with their class! Eleanorhonan on Instagram for those interested! RTs welcome

Class got to learn how to use LAMP (assistive communication) so they can interact more fully with a classmate. Have a low tech Velcro version to hang in the room for kids to use and used ActivPanel to show the actual program. Amazing day! #inclusion #classroomcommunity
