How we start every meeting. Our reading specialist and special educator were moving their body. Our counselor was moving her soul with a feel the pulse moment. Love these people! We move with purpose @SandalwoodES
Today is National Basketball Day. So let’s see who earned some points “shooting” at the cups. If you think they are filled you need to get your mind out of the gutter. #alwayshavingfun
One of my former studio members gave her sister a sticker to give to me. Fits perfectly on my device. 🦈 Love my 5th graders that still think of me when they move on to MS ❤️
What do the start of your faculty meetings look like? We “Move with Purpose” @SandalwoodES

Today @Sandalwood hosted 4 Essex area schools for PD on The Science of Learning, High Expectations: Real Relationships, and Time Management. But it started with a game of @FamilyFeud hosted by Steve Harvey to bring us all together. Love when I’m random sometimes 😆
Just these 2 goofy kiddos helping with field day @Sandalwood_BCPS. Rain or shine, hot or humid, it was a busy day.
ABW Lunch with my 5th grade studio crew @Sandalwood_BCPS and now starting my mornings with my 4th graders. I think it’s going to be a great new group, considering Ava brought me my favorite morning breakfast bc she heard me mention it one morning 🥰
Find a gold coin…win a prize ☘️ Trying to find ways to help get the staff through the long month of March @Sandalwood_BCPS Who has the luck of the Irish? Ohhh and today’s spirit day was to dress colorful. I did my best.
Happy Pi Day to the staff. Such a yummy way to start the morning off @Sandalwood_BCPS
How you know you’re at the best work place ever? Had meniscus surgery today. My peeps sent texts, my PE teacher actually called this morning for a pep talk, my studio crew sent their ❤️, & some left me a little love b4 leaving (words and gifts). I am so blessed to work with them!
We always start our faculty meetings with a quick game, I just always forget to take pictures. Today was a last minute idea, & the groups had 4 minutes to plan and create something for Nurse Julie who was judging. I’m amazed by the creativity #letthejourneybegin
Find yourself a place to work that when you have a bad day/week, you have an insanely supportive staff to helps to pick you up and guide your way. Walked into this after being at a mtg yesterday. BEYOND BLESSED to work with these people @Sandalwood_BCPS ❤️
The last day of our spirit week journey took us to Scotland where the wishing tree originated. They nailed coins into the tree but the story, The Wishing Tree, its different. We wanted to wish everyone a happy winter break so we figured we would grant the wish of coziness & pjs.
Perfect night for a holiday work party @Sandalwood_BCPS. Superlatives, Guess Who, The Grinch Game, and the oven mitt unraveling game. I am tired and hurting but I think everyone had a great time. Lots of competition and lots of laughs.
One of my fav things I do in Dec for the Ts @Sandalwood_BCPS - giving the gift of time. I dismiss the Ts for 30 minutes and read a story. The Ss create a gift & give it to their T a few days later. But when the T walks in we are working on a “decoy.” 😉 Theme this yr - sharks
Today our journey @Sandalwood_BCPS took us to Mexico where we learned about Nochebuena. We wore red, green, and creative sweaters as we listened to the story ‘Twas Nochebuena and learned some Spanish.
My “why!” When a former student of mine @Sandalwood_BCPS (well tv studio anchor) receives an award for being an inspiration. This girl is amazing and continues to do big things 🥰
Today we took a journey to America from Nazi Europe for Spirit Week @Sandalwood_BCPS . We learned about Hanukkah and wore winter colors as we listened to the story “Oskar and the Eight Blessings” @marksiegelbooks.
This week @Sandalwood_BCPS we are taking a journey around the world. Today we visited Egypt (where knitting originated), listened to the story “Extra Yarn” by @macbarnett and wore our festive socks!
