It’s hard to find good books that involve math, It’s hard to find good books that involve math, but I really enjoyed this one! In The Miscalculations of Lightning Girl by @stacymcanulty, Lucy was struck by lightning as a child and it made her into a math genius. She’s been homeschooled ever since and is ready for college, but her nana insists she go to middle school for a year first! What’s your favorite book that involves math?

I can’t decide which is cuter - the complex unit rates with chocolate milk recipes or the ratios with ice cream! What’s your vote? PS I always post new activities at a discount for a short time - I’ve been posting these to my stories as soon as they’re available, so make sure you’re checking my stories regularly so you don’t miss out on discounted new activities! You can find these by going to my TpT store (link in profile) and sorting by “most recent” - or just let me know if you want a link to a specific activity! iPad backgrounds by @bricksandborder

Parent communication is going to be more important Parent communication is going to be more important than ever this year! #ad That’s why I am excited to partner with @classtagme this back-to-school season! ClassTag allows you to easily connect with families and share announcements, files, and photos. It connects with your Google Drive to make sharing things easy, and it will translate your messages into 60+ languages! One of my absolute favorite features is that it allows you to set office hours so parents know when they can expect a response from you! And did I mention that it’s completely FREE?! You can even earn rewards for your classroom for using it! If this sounds like something you need in your life this year, click the link in my profile to sign up and get started with 150 reward points so you can go #BackToSchoolStrong with @classtagme!
This is always important to remember during back-t This is always important to remember during back-to-school season, but it feels especially important this year! Please know that you don’t need to do everything you see other people doing! You don’t need to be an expert in every tech program to do virtual teaching well! You don’t need a Bitmoji classroom if you don’t want one (but it’s also okay if you do)! Pick a few things to focus on doing well for now - you can always add new things later on! What are you going to focus on for back-to-school? I’d love to hear about it in the comments!
This is a difficult post for me to write, but I ha This is a difficult post for me to write, but I have some big news to share. I have made the extremely difficult decision to take a leave of absence from teaching this year. With baby on the way, my school going back 5 days a week in person, and no option for a virtual position, this seemed like the best option for my family this year. I know I am very fortunate to be able to make this choice, and my heart is with anyone who doesn’t have this option. Please know that I will be cheering all of you on and supporting you through this time - and on the bright side, this gives me a lot of time to create more resources to help you out this year!
