Did you know that you DON’T have to give into standardized test pressure? Did you know that you DON’T have to sacrifice your authentic instruction in the name of drill and kill test prep? It’s true! I straight up hate standardized tests, and with each school year that goes by, I stress about them less and less. My latest blog post is all about my (mis)adventures in test prep and how I approach it now in my classroom. What are your thoughts on standardized testing? How do you deal with it in your classroom? #teachersofinstagram #teacherblogger #testprep #iteachtoo #texasteachers #blogger

My spring break aesthetic is best described as “youthful RBG.” #teachersonbreak #teachersofinstagram #notoriousrbg #springbreak

If I was the type of person who purchased and hung art, I would have 100% bought these beautiful prints at the @seattlepubliclibrary shop. They would be perfect for a classroom or kids’ room! Sadly, I barely qualify as a real adult and left them on the shelf. #teachersonbreak #teachersofinstagram #librarylife

I’ve got my author photo, now I just need to write a book. #teachersonbreak #iteachtoo #teachersofinstagram

WE MADE IT TO SPRING BREAK (barely). Today was a pajama day, so I had the perfect excuse to pair this amazing teacher tee from @_thirdgradeswag with these very chic sweatpants. And yes, my students did try to use my shirt to negotiate an additional chapter during read aloud 😂Now I’m off to savor this vacation, because I love my job and my kids, but this girl needs a BREAK. #teachergram #teachersofinstagram #springbreak #teacherstyle #bookworm

The best way to end a week...is to start a new book! Front Desk by @kellyyanghk is our new class read aloud, and my kids were already complaining when we had to stop reading. I have a feeling this one is going to lead to some great discussions! What is your class reading right now? #shelfie #currentlyreading #iteachfifth #bookstagram
