So much fun happened before our break, I forgot to share it!! Learned about the true story of the Berlin Candy Bomber then made candy parachutes of our own! Took a virtual field trip around the world and wrote epic holiday stories (pics of stories coming in January)

OIS is taking over the fashion industry! One of a kind gift wrap dress by House of Weber Designs. Wishing everyone the happiest of holidays with your family!! See you in 2023!

Work hard, play hard! The kiddos gave it their all and scored big preparing for their big nonfiction test. Oakcrest Intermediate

We dance on 80's Fever Fridays!🎵 Today's moves inspired by Elton John's "I'm Still Standing"🎶 Oakcrest Intermediate

After days of testing last week, Friday we played at the dog park! From Scooby snack shenanigans, Frisbee toss, pin the tail on the corgi, and flinging poop in the grass, we had a barking good time. What's your dog name?? Oakcrest Intermediate

Having a summer birthday, I never get to celebrate with students. So while Ms. May celebrated Beiber's bday, we celebrated my 3/4 birthday. And you thought only half birthdays were a thing 😆 I love my students!! (Partied too hard, missed group pics of 2 classes😕) Oakcrest Intermediate

Glow Games STAAR Review was a success!!! The kiddos are ready for Tuesday. A HUGE thank you to all the parents who provided games, decorations, and more!! I couldn't do it without you ❤️

After reading, "If I Built a House" by Chris Van Dusen to get our imagination going, students drew blue prints and floor plans of their dream house. Then they had to construct these houses out of 3D shapes. Fun houses for sure! Oakcrest Intermediate

Yesterday we sampled great books during our first room transformation of the year! Students were stuffed with titles they are hoping to check out soon. I "mustache" if you've read a good book lately?😉 Oakcrest Intermediate

⚾️ How cool is your Superintendent? Well… our Region 4 Superintendent of the Year Dr. Martha SalazarZamora throws out the honorary first pitch at tonight’s Houston Astros game, and of course it’s a strike! #DestinationExcellence

Our fiction review was as sweet as can be! These kiddos worked so hard. I'm extremely proud of them. Thank you parents for candy and decor!!

Weber's Open Mic 🎤 was poetically perfect!! Students shared personal poems, silly stanzas, and radically rhyming raps. It was all snaps!! I'm so proud of them. I could burst 💓 Oakcrest Intermediate Tomball ISD English Language Arts & Reading (Pics of poems coming soon!)

I'm snow proud of my little elves and the creative winter stories they wrote. They were true authors who planned, drafted, revised, and revised, and revised, and revised again before editing. Then, they illustrated and published beautiful picture books. So so proud 🥰 Oakcrest Intermediate

These kids right here!! All three teams have made me extremely proud. They were constantly revising, reworking, listening to my blunt critiques, & pushing forward. The growth in just these few weeks alone inspires me. Amazing kiddos and the best coaches! 🥰 Oakcrest Intermediate

Last week was all a GLOW!! We are getting STAAR ready!!

Welcome to the Carnival!!! We don't clown around when it comes to being STAAR ready. Oakcrest Intermediate

My kiddos and I are definitely NOT wigging out over STAAR! They are sooooo ready! Oakcrest Intermediate

"Coming Soon to Theaters Near You" was the theme of our book club finale. Students created movie posters for their books. Posters included quotes that represent themes or conflict, star-studded casts, tag lines to entice the viewers, reviews, and more. I'm obsessed!! Oakcrest Intermediate

How sweet it is to review in Candyland! The kiddos were in awe of all the fun and decorations while I was in awe at how hard they worked. Oakcrest Intermediate Tomball ISD English Language Arts & Reading

Return to school after Thanksgiving break and was reminded of all we are thankful for. I think we will keep adding to it these next three weeks. Thankful for my job. Thankful for my students. 🥰
