Our G2 teachers are grateful to have an FCPSOn planning day to provide access to meaningful learning experiences & technology through Socratic Seminar & differentiated PBL units. Can’t wait to see the evidence of student learning!

I love my Crossfield community & being creative with @BookyBaucum & @Coach_Felt ! Go Rockets!
I say it every year. My SBTS and TSSPEC are better than yours 😂. Fitness Felt and Speedy Sims are back for the @CrossfieldES 2023 Fun Run! These two are such troopers for dealing with every crazy script I throw at them 🤣 @MsHollySims m.youtube.com/watch?fbclid=I…

How can we, as authors, use technology to share our unique thoughts, ideas, & feelings? Our G2 students practiced their Communicator skills as they generated their word collections, drafts, Wixie book pages, & POG POL reflections. #PBLinFCPS #fcpsPOGPOL

Teachers should not have to pick up a second or third job to survive. If we want to appreciate teachers, we need to raise salaries for teachers nationwide.

Absolutely blown away at the student artwork on display at last night’s Crossfield United event. Bravo to our kids, our art teacher, Mrs. Willis, & the CES PTO for an incredible experience of art and cultural displays & performances.

Guess what I'll be doing on our teacher workday?
Anyone else had a play with @canva bulk create and #ChatGPT to just have Ai's perform magic like this? ✅ Ask #chatGPT for a bunch of quotes or questions ✅ Paste into Canva bulk create and connect data ✅ Make tea 🫖 ✅ Have 5 minute break to process the possibilities 😲

So super proud of these members of our Tech Team. They volunteered to present POG POLs to our community last night. It’s so important that all stakeholders understand what POG looks like & how POLs amplify student voice. These Rockets soared sharing their growth! #fcpsPOGPOL
