My Ss love these books. It would be wonderful to get them some more ones!

So much fun playing Salute! for math today. Much needed mental break for the parents, fun learning game for the first grader, and we all worked together! 10 min activity. #learningisfun West Orange Schools @LisaRMarx

Today we played TopIt with three friends. So glad we added a new friend. First Grade Flex Fridays are awesome! Definitely a new way to interact but truly grateful for the ability for virtual interaction. #wo2world West Orange Schools @LisaRMarx @rebecca_beutel

So excited to hear Ss reactions/excitement to "Stella Diaz Never Gives Up" by @andominguez using @Flipgrid. The platform gives them #studentvoice even in times of distancing. #wo2world West Orange Schools Beatrice Hanratty Hazel School WO Joyce Soto

What an awesome sign. Remember our Ss feel our energy, our families feel our energy, and our colleagues feel our energy.

This was the reminder I needed tonight. As we get ready for this new chapter in out teaching careers we must remember to be kind to ourselves and our students. The content will come as the relationships grow. #WO2World West Orange Schools

For the first time in history, the Hepatitis C virus can now be cured. The 2020 Medicine Laureates’ discoveries revealed the cause of the remaining cases of chronic hepatitis and made possible blood tests and new medicines that have saved millions of lives. #NobelPrize

Glad to have this team to bounce ideas off of and plan as we begin ramping up for hybrid! Being each other's Ss/Ts allowed for great work.

Haven't taught in person in 11 months. Wrote 6 word memoirs with 4th graders today. Didn't realize how much I missed this! Students were definitely chatty and thrilled to be back. Glad we were able to give them our full attention today. Hazel School WO West Orange Schools Hazel PTA
