All Swartz Of Learning

"I wish someone would have taught my that in school."

What is THAT skill that you wish you would have learned years and years (or even months) ago? For me it’s: 🎸🤹‍♀️🏄‍♀️

Are you ready to give your students the opportunity to take ownership of their learning outside of the classroom!?

Me too!

Try Something new (TSN) is a month long unit that gives students the opportunity to "try something new" for one month.

I am not exaggerating when I say I have shed tears 😭 over how incredible the final projects turned out.

Happy Monday ☕️

Here are some fun Thanksgiving writing prompts for this week!

Talk about them in the morning or use them as brain breaks between subjects!

Short weeks: 👍 or 👎?

Somehow short weeks are the worst and the best.
👍 More time for family/ relaxation!
👎 The kids are c.r.a.z.y 😂😂😂
👍 Time to catch up on missing work
👎 The students that are missing work are definitely the ones that are also absent 🤦‍♀️

If you’re looking for single lesson plans for your short week ➡️➡️➡️ try short stories!

My kiddos LOVE these assignments because they are short + engaging. I love them bc I don’t have to build entire lesson plans around them!

My favorite short story is ALWAYS “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson. It leaves my students, as they would say, “Shook-ith.” 😂😂😂

I’m in my classroom for the first time this year which is a whole mix of emotions (it’s also only for the day).

Finding this lovely Christmas surprise on my desk made my day!!! Thank you to parents + students who go above and beyond to say thank you ♥️♥️♥️

I can tell this gifts was intention because:
- Hot Cheetos (yes please)
- a personalized tumbler!!!
- a hand written note (best part)
- “S” keychain
- chocolate 😏
