Overheard during project time:
“Oh no, I am missing a triangle!”
Response from classmate:
“Don’t worry, I have an extra!”

President Jimmy Carter was a true friend to Habitat for Humanity and worked so tirelessly to make the world a better place. Please join us in remembering him and celebrating the positive impact he had on so many. #HonoringCarter
This is a really great question… and what if there is a cultural difference that makes banter with students feel hard?
The happiest weekends are the ones spent in the company of people you love pursuing music, chores and togetherness …
Class ended with the same student saying “class was really fun today and I’m excited about this project” which is why we do the work we do here at SLA-MS.
This afternoon’s class began with me taking attendance and pausing for a breath before I could say the thing I always say and a 5th grader chiming in “don’t forget to say ‘thank you for coming to math today.’” - which brought a chuckle from all of us.
We’ve been working hard to keep our afternoons as chill and purposeful as our mornings, and I am happy to report that today we nailed it! You can’t even tell which picture was taken in the morning and which was at 2:50! Way to go, Pathfinders! @SLAMiddle
A proud moment for the Ironside Advisory when we spent most of advisory discussing how carved turnip are cooler and scarier than carved pumpkins… Many examples were offered!

Grateful to @one8alhub for giving @SHSBlueKnights the chance to visit @slanews via the ALLI program. Thanks to @chrislehmann & @TimothyMBoyle for sharing their vision/structures for transformational learning & to @MattRKay + @nironside13 for showing #appliedlearning in action.
It was a rocky start to the day, but Fun Friday with Ironside Advisory is pretty restorative.., @SLAMiddle
Visit your colleagues - especially the ones outside your discipline..
You will always learn something from them and the kids you share…
Lots of green tomatoes… hopefully the sun and warmth of the dining room will help them turn red. Growing food with the person you love is pretty damn great.
