Franklin 5th Grade Champions are learning strategies to control emotions in morning gathering. For November, we wrote the things we’re thankful for to help us realize that when circumstances get out of control, we have many things to be thankful for. @FranklinSCSD #scsdsuccess

If you missed it earlier this week, the 2019-20 NOAA #Winter Outlook was issued. The overall theme for December 2019 through February 2020 is above average #temperatures across the U.S., with above average #precipitation across the Northern U.S. and in parts of Alaska and Hawaii.

Being an educator is tough. Don't choose to be around people that make it tougher. #teachergoals

#SCSDSuccess Franklin Champion Mathematicians hard at work 😁
5th grade Franklin champion mathematicians used their strategies and prior skills on a math task. Team work was required to help them through their "productive struggle" with a new decimal concept. Awesome learning and great teamwork!

By the time Renia Spiegel was shot by Nazi soldiers, she had chronicled life under 2 totalitarian regimes: the Soviets and the Nazis. Her journal, which has been called a counterpart to Anne Frank’s diary, is to be published in English for the first time. nyti.ms/2kN9zqt

Sometimes a kid (or adult) doesn't want to talk about it right then, or even later, with you. Don't force it--just be there if they need you. #HackingSchoolDiscipline amzn.to/2Lgpg64
