I love planning lessons AND teaching them! It's a tough job and we're grossly underpaid, but every day I pray that my classroom will be a place that BOTH my students and I enjoy being in, and after 16 years it still is (thankfully!). In my classroom, I have a wall for reading, grammar, writing and math. Each wall includes vocabulary posters, anchor charts, daily objectives, and sentence frames to guide student discussion and assist them in using their academic vocabulary. I change my walls for every standard. My team and I strive to keep students actively engaged by planning a variety of lesson activities that require students to demonstrate their understanding often (real-time assessments) and discuss their learning often (partner/group sharing). I intend to upload tons of stuff, including all of my posters and activities. Please check back frequently!
