Stopped by @TacoBell yesterday after work and my student came out with my order like, “Ms. Watts?!” She was so excited to see me while working, and honestly, moments like that remind me why I love being a teacher. 🌮😂💕

One of my amazing colleagues had her 5th graders make bookmarks for staff members or fellow students, and I was handed these by some former students this afternoon. My heart is SO full. 😍

Some of the best advice I have ever received… Find yourself a corner, a shelf, a small space on the wall and put up the reminders to why you chose this job, a teacher, in the first place. ❤️ #teacherlife #gratefulandthankful #whyIteach

#TodaysMomentOfAwesome I enjoy giving students room to be creative in class. It helps me learn who they are as people.
It also makes moments like this possible. You don't get this from a scripted curriculum.

I have this one amazing student this year that I greet her with "Hey Queen" every day at the door. She then tells me about something that is upsetting her, she gets it out, and then she has a great class. I am really going to miss her next year. #whyiteach

First day back at the Hellmouth and a student handed me these. She said ‘I saw you sad on the last day of term and I wanted to make you smile’ (my cat died on the last day). Teenagers are bloody amazing. #whyiteach
