A1. Growth for me included running a marathon, writing two books, and starting to work with @RyanGiffen speaking about #HackingEarlyLearning and leadership. #eduar
A2: The biggest surprise from my whole school when I was awarded the support employee of the year for my district! Hats off to @renathunderhawk for having me rushing a K class to a choir assembly that I was late for! #eduar
What an honor and huge surprise from all of @MapleWarriors yesterday! Feeling very blessed to be recognized as the District Support Employee of the Year. It’s a great day to be a Warrior! #ssdpride#warriorscreate
A2 Without a doubt, my favorite memory so far has been my surprise visit to Florida to @CaldwellElemen with @bmilla84 'S grade 1s after a year long collaboration. The faces, the reactions. I have to repeat...I am truly BLESSED. #eduAR
A2 Teachers joyously sharing student successes. For instance - students in the autistic support classroom playing basketball with their peers on the playground. #KidsDeserveIt#EveryoneMatters#eduar
A2:Absolute favorite is the same every year. Hearing “oh my gosh, I love math!” Sometimes I’m lucky enough to hear it from more than one of my reluctant mathematicians. #eduar
A2: Favorite memories include keeping positive climate in a year of change! Losing 2/3 of Staff, reimagining our school, renovations to come, yet we put each other and our Ss first and had fun! #NotableNovember and staff talent show knocked it out of the park! #eduAR#ShareMOEdu
Ss were supposed to bring in materials to decorate a balloon powered car they made. One group didn’t bring anything in so they cut out a picture from the calendar. It happened to be the superintendent. We called the car the “kovalchik” and he came to watch it race!!! #eduAR

A3: Kindness Challenges...after the first month they asked for more❤️! Leadership Hour allowing 100% of our 500 K-2 students to serve as leaders. We may be little, but we are mighty!! #eduAR
A3 I’m going to celebrate this girl & her TREMENDOUS reading gains! This is my daughter Paisleigh, she came into 3rd gr as a struggling reader! 2E, as well as gifted/talented in performing arts, ADHD, & all around amazing girl. She is now reading on/above grade level #eduAR
A4 I celebrated with my adopted class via Skype today with a final book read aloud and mini-lesson. A perfect way to end with a perfect book. Got to share "I am enough" with its powerful message! I will miss those kids! #eduAR
A4: This was yesterday for us. We had an EOTY Celebration. The Ss chose their three favorite songs/fingerplays to do for their families, received certificates, and shared punch and cookies #EduAR
A4 We had such a special classroom family day today. Special awards, slideshows of our year together. Each child shared a special msg from their heart. Lots of tears, hugs, and great memories! Here’s a peek at one of our videos. #eduar
A5 My memories are now inspiring my preparation for my return to the classroom. So inspiring, amazing, learning adventures that will change lives! Can't wait to make dreams a reality. Big things ahead, and this year helped make it happen. Already eager! #eduAR
A4: we did our first 4th grade “graduation” ceremony - others in our district have done this and we finally got on board. Complete with precious slide show, surprising and touching student speeches, and lots of sweet smiles and hugs. #eduar

A5: Today was our last day. We spent the last few weeks of school designing and planning our own theme parks, then solving hypothetical problems and building marble roller coasters! It was a great opportunity to watch them use all they’d learned this year! #eduar
A5 I created 6 different slideshows of memories of our year together and the kids loved watching them! Here’s a peek at one of them. https://t.co/lr9mGoPBqh#eduAR
A5 The kids have all written letters to the 4th grader who will sit in their desk next year. They tape them inside for my new students to discover in August! ❤️ #eduAR
A3 1st graders researched their fav authors' lives, analyzed 3-5 of their books & then were inspired to create a book of their own. Their presentations inspired us all! #InquiryIntoAuthors#eduAR
A6 I have amazing books ready to read, both PD & books for my students. Some PD learning opportunities, some great Twitter chats & starting my own chat with my friend & Twitter brother @MrCoachEli#bekindEDU on June 3. This summer will be one for the books! (pun intended) #EduAR

A2, Discovering how to step back from directing my Ss & letting them discover their talents &eating them to think more like artists, creating unique artwork & having pride. #EduAR
Remember these kiddos at Roberts Elementary who tried to 3D print their classmate prosthetic thumbs? Gotta give them a hand...they got it done, and just in time for summer break! I'll show you next on @KARK4News.
A4 All our 1st graders will join up for a big finale, our annual Talent Show. Despite looping & staying together for 2 yrs, one year, one said, "I didn't know he could do that! It's amazing that we get to learn even more new things about each other!" #eduAR
A3, my Ss are making those independent choices for materials & content, using their creativity to problem solve, & helping others when they struggle. #EduAR
