My K student from last year has framed and taken flat Mrs. Witles into her 1st online grade classroom. Love being there to cheer her on! #AACPSAwesome #relationshipsmatter #alwaysmykid

Hey Arnold Elementary Terps! I helped out BAE by mailing out Terp-o-Grams for Kindness today! They will be in your mailboxes soon! Watch for a special edition of morning announcements tomorrow to learn how to spread the kindness just in time for Unity Day! @Kindness_Grows Office of Equity

Way to go Michaela! 🧡

Happy Halloween! 🎃 👻

I usually leave my students locker love notes telling them why I am thankful for each of them. This year I am doing virtual love notes in email. I am so thankful for each of my students! #AACPSAwesome #Thankful #KindergartenRocks

Flat Mrs. Witles is in the Mail and on the way to have adventures with my students over break! #AACPSAwesome Arnold Elementary #KindergartenRocks

Have a wonderful, relaxing winter break. See you in 2021!

Virtual learning still allows for indoor snowball fights! Practicing reading, writing, and throwing our high frequency words! When the stop sign comes out we pick up one snowball and read it to the class. #AACPSAwesome #KindergartenRocks #snowballfight

Today Arnold Elementary is celebrating Kindness through Words for Kindness week and we will spotlight Youth Poet Laureate and rockstar, Amanda Gorman! Students will reflect on how they can "be the light" with their courageous and brave words. #AACPSAwesome #projectunity2021

A great way get students excited and engaged on a snowy day is to have everyone grab a bowl of snow and write our letters and high frequency words in the snow! ❄️❄️ #AACPSAwesome #KindergartenRocks #snowday

As districts return more kids to school buildings, many will do better, but it's not a panacea. Prepare kids for school to look & feel different, tell them they may experience mixed emotions--from happiness to disappointment, fatigue & awkwardness--and normalize asking for help.

Positive message conversation hearts to spread the love, virtually this year. #AACPSAwesome #HappyValentinesDay2021 #spreadkindnesslikeconfetti

There are so many good reasons to read! What is it for you?

At a recent talk, a parent asked what their kid should do this summer to make up for a year of academic disruption. My answer? Get outside. Play w/ friends. Hug grandparents. Read for fun. Ride a bike. If we don't let kids recalibrate, they may struggle to re-engage in learning.

This is what your teacher might look like when you work hard all week and earn fun Friday dress up day! #AACPSAwesome #KindergartenRocks #FunFriday #Friyay

May the 4th be with you! A great way to start our day, lights off and mini light sabers. #AACPSAwesome #KindergartenRocks #MayThe4thBeWithYou
