Third graders discuss supply and demand in their "marketplace" simulation. One learning was that in a competitive market, you have to monitor your pricing! Love the authentic connections! @TESCougars1 #Cougars ROAR

A dictionary? That's right! Thanks to the Grange our third graders have a personal dictionary to reference. We appreciate their thoughtfulness and generosity. @TESCougars1

Third graders listen to our 5th SGA candidates who share reasons to vote for them. What an authentic speaking and writing experience. Stay tuned for the winners! @TESCougar1 #CougarsROAR

Students critique work and make connections to numbers using manipulatives. The AHA moments are awesome- 10 tens equals 100! #CougarsROAR

At the Unstuck Conference we talked about the importance of flexibility - how to turn a big deal into a little deal! I wonder how flexible we are as educators?

A great reflection as we start a new school year.

This fires me up! If you have 30 seconds, please read it. We ask all our teachers to write their own “oath” and post it. This is a first year teacher! This would make any principal proud. (And yeah... we made a good hire.)

What a celebration!

Give students & yourself! a nice #brainbreak or #mindfulmoment at the beginning, middle or end of class. Bring that energy up or slow it down. Print this #sketchnote out for quick reference in class. #T2T @teacher2teacher

What magic will we create, Cougars? #CougarsROAR

As we start a new school year, I hope every teacher will take a moment to reimagine what education can and should be for every child. Be magical! Make possibilities a reality! #betherevolution

How many kids would rather be seen as naughty in the classroom than stupid? How can we change that culture of learning in classrooms? WE set the culture! #LearningFirst

Yes, that is a zucchini! Not only do I have the opportunity to work in Thurmont, but my staff brings me home grown veggies. What a perk!
