Sometimes, students make bad choices… but it doesn’t make them a bad kid. I hope we communicate that message to our students. Tomorrow is a new day.
Kids supporting kids! We are so lucky we got the chance to visit @NanElizabeth21’s class today to watch their performance of I Need My Monster! #thirdgraderocks #pbmustangs #readerstheater
Interviewing classmates about reading today. Listening to them talk about their reading life is my favorite! 😍#readinglives #thirdgraderocks #pbmustangs #gvr5
Seeing that my kiddos are set on making it the best year yet for reading gets me fired up! #readwithallmight #findtheperfectbook #pbmustangs #gvr5 #ilovereading #3rdgraderocks
When you’ve made it a whole week through your virtual teaching journey and it happens to be “future career day,” things just might get a little crazy! #pbmustangs #stayingrelevant #keepthesekidsengaged #virtualteaching
My first official virtual teaching day is in the books! Despite not being together in one building, we all wore our school shirts and wrote a list of our top ten reasons we love PBE! #pbmustangs #cometogether #virtuallearning #iteach
We have officially started our fairytale unit! I can’t wait to see what these kids design in their own fairytales! #pbmustangs #fairytales #tcrwp #immersionday

I love the fact that, no matter how bad our “to do list” gets screwed up, no matter how many times the copier breaks, no matter how bad our lesson bombs… we always have the ability to be nice to kids… to make them smile. I love that.
Today is one of my favorite days of the year- dress like a story book character day!!! I love seeing how creative the kids can get with their outfits! #pbelovesreading #pbmustangs #iteach #readacrossamerica
Today was the perfect day to have a guest reader in our class! It also happens to be Read Across America Week and the book she chose, My Rotten Redheaded Older Brother by Patricia Polacco! #PBElovesreading #pbmustangs #diversebooks #iteach
Happy Read Across America Week! Today, we are celebrating by reading If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by @LauraNumeroff and eating some yummy cookies! #pbmustangs #PBElovesreading #iteach #thirdgraderocks
I love my students’ creativity! This boy has been hard at work making his own board game during our indoor recess sessions and we finally got a chance to play! #pbmustangs #iteachthird #creativity
We had a blast learning about science “fruits” and science “vegetables” today! We even got the chance to look at the two different types up close! #mysteryscience #thirdgraderocks #pbmustangs
Today, we worked through our first Power of Flowers lesson on @MysterySci to learn about pollination and how bees help flowers! #pbmustangs #sciencerocks #iteach #savethebees
Today, we started our prep work for our field trip to the @schoolofecon! We can’t wait to run our own businesses and show off what we know about economics! #thirdgraderocks #economics #socialstudies #pbmustangs
Whether it’s prepping for an assembly, celebrating joys, looking at student data to better our instruction, or wrapping our arms around each other during grief, coworkers become family as the years go on. I’m so thankful #teachertribe #mustangpd #pbmustangs
Yesterday, we were able to have our Tailgate party celebrating our Kansas City Chiefs! We can’t wait to see them take on the 49ers at the SUPER BOWL! #pbmustangs #kcchiefs #tailgateparty #thirdgraderocks
One of my absolute favorite read alouds that I usually start the school year with is Matilda by Roald Dahl! This book seems to suck my kids in and makes them beg me for more read aloud time! #mustangPD #pbmustangs @roald_dahl
