Great takeaway from Kristoffer Barikmo’s social emotional health PD this morning: there is a difference between a mind that’s full, and mindful. Not to mention all of the great resources linked within the presentation! Great way to start the day 👍🏻

Started the year wearing this shirt and ending the year in this shirt. To say it’s been a “wild” year would be an understatement! I think I speak for all of Rhein Benninghoven Elementary when I say we would have done anything to be with our “wild things” this past quarter. #BHVirtualSpiritDay 💛

Have I mentioned how amazing our Rhein Benninghoven Elementary community is?? I’ll mention it again because one of my sweet students and her family came to see me with a special drop off today. I feel so loved and thankful 💜

It took me a while, but I finally re-potted my succulent from Dr. Brittany Gonser! It has grown so tall! Every time I look at it I think of Rhein Benninghoven Elementary 💛🖤

Happy first day of school to all! Year 3 and I’m still learning new things every day! My colleagues are my heroes ❤️ so thankful to be a Rhein Benninghoven Elementary Dr. Brittany Gonser Mrs Pyle, LMSW

Thanks for the reminder to take care of ourselves this weekend Mrs Pyle, LMSW! I got a mani/pedi and got some (maybe too much 😬) retail therapy in! Feeling recharged for week 2 of remote learning! Rhein Benninghoven Elementary #BHSticksTogether

Being intentional with #selfcare this year. Tonight I got in a 40 minute walk (even jogged for half a mile 🏃🏼‍♀️), tried a new recipe (quinoa enchilada casserole YUM 😋) and lit a fall candle (yes, I know it’s still summer) #BHSticksTogether ❤️🌵 Rhein Benninghoven Elementary

Hey Rhein Benninghoven Elementary, recognize this cow? I’m working on my families annual calendar and came across this picture, I’m sitting on the ground in front 😊
