One of my favorite places in my class! Selfies with students who come back to visit 🥰 I keep a copy and give one to them too. These kiddos (and many more not pictured here) are my #MyWhyKISD #CelebrateKISD #BuildingtheBEST @Independence_ES
I was hoping to make a writing/research project more meaningful to my students. Chose a conservation to support as a class and were sent these bracelets for free 🥰😭 Now we have real class animals to track and support! @Independence_ES @KellerISD
Reached out to @myfahlo about my students animal research project & then they donated 5 bracelets/animals for us to track! My students were SO motivated to learn about animals & all the ways they can help too! Thank you for inspiring my students to make an impact in the world 🥰
So honored to be a finalist in the #KISDTOY24. My principal won the Rookie of the Year award too! @Independence_ES is a great place to be! ❤️
This speaks volumes to me. It is true in my work as well as the ones I lead ⭐️ @StephenMRCovey @TheLeaderinMe @franklincovey #LIMSymposium
What an honor to hear @StephenMRCovey speak this morning at #LIMSymposium in Austin. “Leaders [teachers] are gardeners. We create conditions where people can flourish and grow” 🌻 @franklincovey @MrsKYoung1 @Independence_ES @KellerISD
Our class had a blast learning about drama and acting out the story we were reading! We transformed rulers into swords, and clipboards into shields 😂 Luckily, Medusa did not turn anyone into stone either! @Independence_ES @TheTeacherRoom @KellerISD
Hello fourth graders! We had such an amazing time meeting our new students tonight at Meet the Teacher 😄 @Independence_ES @KellerISD #meettheteacher

Last day of STEAM Camp at @Independence_ES! Our young engineers used their blueprints to build their bridges. Loved hearing them identify their bridges by name and adding their own artistic touch. Next up, testing how much weight each bridge can hold! @MrsHancockIES @KellerISD

We’re having a blast at our very first @Independence_ES STEAM Camp! Our Ss have been transformed into bridge engineers! After learning about types of bridges, Ss researched a famous bridge and used various materials to model it. @KellerISD @PLTWorg #CelebrateKISD #STEMeducation

Monday was Principal Appreciation Day. Our 4th graders wanted to make sure our awesome Principal, @LasoniaR knew how important and appreciated she is to @Independence_ES! We're thankful for you Mrs. Russell!

We had a blast during our Maverick Motivator today! I had the STEAM room 🤖💡I loved watching their creative minds at work. One group even decided to reenact the Texas Revolution! @Independence_ES
We had a great time at the @KellerISD Job Fair today! Enjoyed meeting so many great educators interested in joining our Maverick family ❤️🐴 @Independence_ES @LasoniaR @IES_Counselor @LoriStrom17

We came to @TheLeaderinMe Symposium to learn more about the model. We left inspired and with so many ideas of how to foster leaders in our school! Thank you @7HillsNISD and @docspeaks! 🤩🙌🏻 @Independence_ES @KellerISD #7habits #leadership @LasoniaR @MrsKYoung1 @ChareeHayes1st
“Before you look at the enemy, you need to look at the inner me” 🪞🤔 Keynote speaker, @docspeaks brought the energy and truth to our conference today. Thank you for your inspiration! Wish my students could meet you!
