I agree there, Kotch. It's been a crazy few weeks and I think everyone is busy getting ready for the end of the school year! #sunchat

Oh well, Paz. Looks like you can get Will to the playground early this morning before those winds kick in! We can put #sunchat on the back burner for a few weeks and try to revive again in the future.
The power plant down the road is still smoldering... Was definitely a scare I would like to not remember. It is ironic bc before we went on break I was teaching about fire breaks and the adverse effects wildfires have on biomes... Guess this is where I will pick up my conversation! #sunchat
Good morning #sunchat! Getting ready to return to the classroom for the last nine weeks of school here in Jersey! We just got over a scary wildfire that is still burning within our county. How is everyone this morning?
See you next week! #sunchat
That's awesome!! Hoping with warmer weather on the way you can get out and take a walk to the bay ๐๐ #sunchat
We are the only couple on the dance floor here Kotch ๐คฃ๐คฃ but that's okay!! I know a lot of people are on spring break but unfortunately we have another 4 days to go ๐ญ๐ญ. Let's put a pin in here and return after Easter? #sunchat
How is the knee feeling, Kotch? You get to upgrade your "ride" this week! I definitely probably should have told you to buy a grabber off of Amazon in case anything falls to the floor lol #sunchat
Morning #sunchat crew! Melissa here from the Jersey shore. Just got into soccer practice with my little guy. So now I have time to really deep dive into this conversation!
Oh no!! Time for me to collect my little soccer from practice and head on home. I will catch all of you next week! #sunchat
I think it's the class sizes that are making me hesitant ๐คฃ #sunchat
I would love this incredibly much. Many Ss I know in 6th aren't mature enough just yet to really drive their own education and understanding but my 8th would mostly thrive bc they take my class as an honors course that they "hopefully" enjoy ๐ #sunchat
It's great making this connections and seeing the eye opening moment that the concepts we all teach actually have value! We are about to talk about rockets in STEM which goes with their quadratics unit in Algebra ๐๐ป #sunchat
I do this in science with taking textbook materials and making it more manageable for my ELL and Wilson readers... I level the playing field but they need to reach the bar! #sunchat
I love this, when we were in "groups" I was able to do this but now I don't share the same students as many of my colleagues or they are on different topics due to pacing and student needs. #sunchat
Morning, Alex!! Long time no see! #sunchat
Some Ss don't even care about "staying back" now and it's crazy to me... Some Ps don't give the support, or come in saying they support us in meeting but it's never followed through with. I get we are busy, but.. #sunchat
Yes, every single day. We run on a "Cardinal" and "Navy" day rotation to ensure I have each class for an even amount of time throughout the year. #sunchat
This is what I love to do with my science curriculum and try to adapt it to ELA and Math content areas to assist in connecting concepts across the board. #sunchat
I have 6 sections (classes) I have three per day that are 82 minute blocks. #sunchat
My classes are pushing 30-31 ::struggle:: #sunchat
I'll have to look into this for this summer for a good read. I love trying to apply new practices in the classroom when foundation has been established! #sunchat
"Grade levels" always never say right with me even as a kid. I think we can take those barriers away and be able to really deep dive into student achievement... #sunchat
We used to have "MAC" programs in our district that looped together 3rd and 4th grade classes. I assume they are the modern-day icr classrooms and they did really well! #suncht
I agree... The pairs are one thing, anything above is chaos. #sunchat
Oooo I like this a lot. I got to figure out a better way next year to incorporate partner work but also maintaining academic integrity. I was a big watcher this year to see what works and what does not. #sunchat
I've been trying a lot of group work with my 8th graders but I assume I haven't gotten a grasp of it yet because many times I tell him to choose one person or if they want to be a "single Pringle" they can as well.. problem is those two people usually move closer to other groups.. #sunchat
Girl, yes!! My family is a walking accident ๐คฃ๐คฃ. Any medical apparatus you need? We got because we probably broke that body part before LOL #sunchat
Urg that's the worst... I'm a back sleeper but with my knee surgery years ago it was a pain to get up to go to the bathroom ๐คฃ #sunchat
Just sayin' @carlameyrink.bsky.social. #sunchat
