@CampbellCSI Halloween w/o our Ss was tough, but we had a fun optional Zoom costume event anyway! We went with “literacy-inspired” characters! @KelliVarich @juniebjones @littleredridinghood

#DotDay2020 Wish we could’ve seen our Ss wearing their polka dots in person, but they looked great virtually! We joined in the #InternationalDotDay fun too! @KelliVarich @mvonrichter2

#distancelearning was never invited, but it arrived anyway. I’m grateful to be working with a team of @CampbellCSI parents & students who are persisting through this unknown terrain. We can do this together!

#distancelearning Day 1 is in the books! With @KelliVarich @CampbellCSI It’s going to be a great Kindergarten year!

This would be a great question to ask often to K kids during read-alouds. Important data to see who's identities are being represented.
This looks like a great strategy! Window or Mirror- students read and analyze a text and decide if it's a mirror of their own lived experience or a window into someone else's perspective: tolerance.org/classroom-reso…

While I believe my school did a pretty good job with the "crisis response" format of learning, we will diligently move toward refining the process to make "virtual learning" more meaningful for all.

This makes me so relieved. I love my students and want to be with them face to face, but only when it is safe for all of us.
@campbellusd Board approves 20-21 Phase-in Reopening Plan, noting the need to be safe, nimble and responsive to local covid-19 conditions. See the plan buff.ly/32jbDdj

Teachers, if we haven't told you recently, you rock the world. Thank you for all you've done to get our kids through these extraordinarily difficult times.
Have a great summer.

No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally than its opposite.

“We miss our CSI teachers!” This chalk art creation in front of our school inspires me to persevere this year for our deserving Ss. @campbellusd @CampbellCSI #distancelearning

Our 'No Homework" Policy has prepared students for this time, when creativity is unleashed in a self-directed fashion, rather than Ss waiting for an assignment given by their T. Well-said, @MsHaughs! @CampbellCSI @campbellusd #cusdrockstar
Why is it important to cultivate that creative confidence in our students?

Our educators are not working from home.
They are at home working on ways to balance their own personal demands while maintaining their commitment to educate individual students to their highest potential during an uncertain and scary time in a completely different way. #Empathy

It’s been a rough week in the edu world, but luckily @CampbellCSI’s virtual spirit week and the spirit posts by Ts & Ss on our school @Flipgrid page has put a big smile on my face! #CUSDrockstar
Look Alike Day with my brother at home! We were able to fit in a mini-workout in our outfits, too.😉 Love showing my CSI spirit where ever I am! @CampbellCSI @campbellusd

How do we encourage our @CampbellCSI Kinders to read over the Winter Break? Give them each a book & a llama Reading Buddy. #readtoyourllama @campbellusd #cusdrockstar @mvonrichter2 @loretta_toy @KelliVarich

Inspired by @yuyimorales’s book, Nino Wrestles the World, our Kinder & 2nd Ss interviewed each other then designed lucha libre masks for their new buddies...
So cute to see them listening so carefully to each other to design accurately!
