I’m excited to be back as a Lead Learner this year! See you soon #ktifamily

I’ve done a terrible job of taking pictures while at #peteandc but my highlights from each day so far: KTI Pre-Con, presenting about finding your marigolds with @mkrenzer20.bsky.social and @misswolos.bsky.social and PURPLE DAY to show all of the KTI love! 💜

So thankful for my marigolds! 💜

The highlight of my week at school this week was doing a Dunkin’ classroom transformation/book tasting. Ss got to explore books in our library, color bookmarks, create a TBR, and finally check out books from our classroom library! #readersareleaders #thisclassroomrunsonreadin

Couldn’t have asked for a better first day of fifth grade! I’m feeling like Nittany now though! 😴

Don’t forget to go to your PAECT regional events! YOU could walk away with something from #prizepatrol like me! @scpaect.bsky.social

This was a big reminder in my SEL presentation. It’s important to show and explain our emotions to our students. It helps them recognize the emotions they have, how we react to them, and how to work through them. And it shows them that it’s perfectly normal to have emotions.

We can't wait to grow our community on this social media platform! Thank you to the leaders for an AMAZING week at Shippensburg University for our #KTISummit. Thanks to the @keystones.bsky.social Lead Learners for an amazing time! #KTIFamily #PAECTLearns

Tuesday, I presented on SEL in the classroom. Recently considered a “dirty word” by those NOT in the classroom or school system. But it’s as simple as good teaching and making sure everyone knows the value they bring to the table. https://sites.google.com/d/1q9wvi9xD0YVpQZ3EKXn9xlWDrbzbGGIw/edit

Too tired to reflect too deeply right now, but this week was another one for the books. I had the best time being a Lead Learner for #ktisummit again this year. I laughed until I cried, cried until I laughed, and almost……..nevermind. I love my purple family! 💜⭐️ #ktifamily @keystones.bsky.social

May as well make my first post here on #EduSky about #ktisummit because it’s an absolute game changer! 💜
