Distance Learning - Day 5. Some of the perks...Dogs...wearing glasses....wishing you a happy birthday...alongside their owner’s Algebra work!! #remotelearning @SMSHappenings

This week was hard and emotional. We all miss school. We’re all a little nervous. But we’re doing it. I read an article about how teachers might be grieving and a line stood out to me. It said, “You can call it work, but really it’s loving. We know you had more loving to do.” 😢

Distance Learning - Day 11. I’ve been creating a short video each day just to touch base with the kids, in addition to other check-ins. If you can’t have fun and laugh at yourself, the kids will never laugh with you. Trying to provide some levity! @SMSHappenings #remotelearning

Distance Learning - Day 19. Not going to lie, creating a “Video of the Day” for my students has been way more fun for me than it has been for them. Or so they tell me. 😉Miss our students so much!! #FiltersForTheWin #TheBest16 @SMSHappenings @SpartaMath

SMS Academic Team representing during Distance Learning. Weekly meetings devolve from routine to hat day to panda head? Great fun for these kids and selfishly for me. #SpartanStrong

Such a wonderful tribute. Thank you! #SpartanStrong

A huge thank you to Mr. Gregory and our SMS administration for supporting and funding my Academic Team students to allow them to compete in a Virtual National Academic Championship today. Proud of these children! IB,NR,CC,VP,QF. 3 down 3 to go. @SMSHappenings Sparta Twp. Schools

In addition to all of the math content, and as silly as they were, I felt strongly that it was really important for my students to be able to see my “face“ each and every day, so I made them a daily video. It was the least I felt like I could do. #64CaringFaces @SMSHappenings

Rational (never irrational) Math Minds discussing the Algebra curriculum and best practices for our students! These teachers never stop having the discussions. #teachersofsparta #mathnerds

It’s been a long journey since SMS students were together in one cohort. We’re excited to welcome back all of our kids, together, for the first time since March 13, 2020!!

More than just the ice cream, it was such a treat to get outside in the sun and talk with colleagues who we don’t always get to see. Thank you!! @SpartaMath @SpartaHSEnglish @SpartaHistoryWL Dr. Marisa Wilson, K-12 Sparta Science Supervisor Adrienne Castorina, EdD, LCSW @SMSHappenings
