“Education is a shared commitment between dedicated teachers, motivated students, and enthusiastic parent with high expectations.” -Bob Beauprez

It takes a tribe to raise a child. This is so true. Especially when it comes to education.

My first year of teaching I was terrified on how I was going to get parents involved.

And if I am being completely honest… I was super scared to even talk to them.

Yep!

I was terrified that I was going to upset someone and have a confrontation.

That’s why this week we are sharing tips on how to increase your parent communication and your parent involvement in your classroom.

If you want to learn the top 3 strategies to transform your parent communication check the link in my bio!

How do you get your parents/families involved?

Happy Valentine’s Day!

I know it’s not Valentine’s Day but it was our Valentine’s Day Party!

I wore my purple eye shadow, heart scarf and these cute antennas that my mom got my whole class!

Today we celebrated with a Cupid Shuffle, Heart Rainbow Experiment and… lots of candy 🍭!

Overall today was amazing! Even while teaching virtual.

How was your Valentine’s Day? What did your class do?
