Just a little PSA for the day🤢
Just trust me....chocolate pudding does not pair well with mask covered faces after lunch.🤮

Today was our first official day back with ALL of

Today was our first official day back with ALL of our students. We’ve been on an A/B schedule since we started in August. It was like having another “first day of school.” I didn’t sleep last night, and I had those first day jitters.
💙The first student I passed in the hall this morning, raised his hands and yelled, “School’s back to normal!”
❤️The kids are so excited to meet new friends and be back every day. 🧡Overall, I think the day went well with the exception of the EXTRA LONG car rider line. I’m pretty sure that some parents may still be waiting in that line😂
💚I sure am thankful for my amazing teammates, especially during this crazy school year.

This made me laugh😂
Our oldest daughter has been asking us for Nike Air Force 1’s for awhile now. I personally think they look like white grandma shoes and have told her that numerous times😉 Well, we finally caved last night and got her some.
😏So today, I'm cleaning out my closet and I threw out these white Walmart sneakers that I bought to dress up for the 100th day of school a couple of years ago. She sees them and comments that she's never seen those before and they kind of look like Air Force 1's. 😂😂😂😂 I LOVED informing her that they were purchased for me to look like a 100 year old GRANDMA!

Daily Math Notebooks are a great way to throw in some extra math review each day, but they’ve also been great for sending home during students’ remote days.

💡CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT TIP
⭐️As a class, we earn tally marks for good behavior, compliments from other teachers, etc. Once the class has earned 10 tally marks (or whatever number you choose), they earn a reward. I let the students brainstorm reward ideas. We vote on our top 4 choices. Then, I spin the wheel to determine our reward❤️
