Science teacher who loves her students, colleagues, community, and using educational technology in the learning process!
Examining sand from places around the world…what a great inquiry activity. Practicing both observation skills and application of earth science content. So cool!

Another great idea from @kellycroy.bsky.social
Schedule some time with/for YOURSELF! Use the calendar to put time in the day for yourself. Model this for your students...share your goals, talk through your strategies, and help them grow. #EduSky

Definitely an undervalued feature of iOS...Use your alarms, reminders, and timers to keep yourself on track! Help students direct their day, instead of having their digital time overtake their productivity. @kellycroy.bsky.social #EduSky

Just finished Lifeboat 5 by @susanhood.bsky.social! Heard her speak at #ncte24 on books to celebrate forgiveness and I’m so glad I picked it up! WWII TRUE STORY of 2 girls who attempted to flee England & travel to 🇨🇦 but their ship was struck by a German torpedo. Perfect for 4th-8th. #kidlit
