An amazing @Kiva @Kiva_U store put on by @MsJBilingues and @Allen25Team ! Students took full ownership of the store and truly led by example! #weared34 #weareworldchangers Estudiantes ejecutaron todos los aspectos de la tienda de Kiva. Un tiempo increíble de liderazgo #somosd34

Preparing for the Kiva store! These 5th graders use every last day to learn, grow, and help others! @Kiva_U @Kiva @HoffmanHornet @MsJBilingues @Allen25Team Preparando para la tienda de Kiva. Se utiliza cada día para aprender, crecer, y ayudar a otros. #weared34 #somosd34

5th grade picnic day at @HoffmanHornet ! Time to celebrate all their hard work throughout their 3 yard (and a pandemic) at Hoffmann! #weared34 I may be a little jealous of @MsJBilingues’ @JohnCena team! #weared34
Felicidades a la banda de Hoffman! Tan orgullosa de su dedicación a aprender y practicar sus instrumentos. Congrats, Hoffman band! So proud of their dedication to learning and practicing their instruments. (They all groaned at me for wanting to take this picture 😂) #WeAreD34
Shoutout to Milton for working hard and being amazing! He's been working on responsibility and organization and is learning something new every day! He's also a creative builder and always surprises me with his inventions.
Leaving comments for our fellow authors - you know it’s good when it reads like a telenovela! #duallanguage
We’ve had a lot of important partner and team work recently, helping each other discover causes of the revolutionary war! #bettertogether
Thankful for the time spent learning and planning at this beautiful @GlenviewPkDist building with my coteaching cohort! I could stare out this window all day.
Overheard while playing Crypto Hack on @PlayBlooket reviewing adding decimals - “¿Quien me hackeó?” 😂 #spanglish #duallanguage
Hoy escribimos cuentos colaborativos, cada estudiante escribiendo una oración para continuar un cuento. It was so cool to hear everyone reading in English y Español, ¡y nos reímos bastante! (bonus: this activity covers all four language domains and is super engaging!)
We were talking about how well we know each other when a student asked, “If you know me so well, what’s my mom’s name?” That was her first question. Not what her favorite anything was, her FAMILY. In many Latino cultures, identity=family. Know your students, know their families.
How would I want to be treated if I were 10 and didn’t get enough sleep because people were yelling last night/all week and I’m worried about everything? The world is a stressful place right now. It’s ok to take care. Teaching with kindness and compassion today and every day.
Always trying to find small ways to incorporate student choice throughout the day because it builds ownership, agency, responsibility, and motivation. Today's choices: Where do you want to sit? What test do you want to take first? When do you want to take a break? #studentled

It's my first year *officially* #coteaching, and it's been a journey that has led to new ideas, increased positive experiences for students, and a lot of professional growth. #WeAreD34 and we are #BetterTogether!
¡Celebrando los autores en nuestro salón! I could feel all of the experiences come to life through their words. #increíble #WeAreD34 ¡Gracias a nuestros invitados, también!
Culturally responsive teaching sometimes means inviting students to use Lotería inspired names for review games 😄 #VivaMexico #HispanicHeritageMonth #WeAreD34
