Recently, our governor tweeted some insults aimed at the district I teach in. I wrote a response, and @houstonchron published it! An alternative title might be: Don’t come for me, Greg. #texasteachers #publicschoolproud #iteachtoo #teachersofinstagram #dontmesswithtexas #teachergram

I’ll outsource this to my students soon (because I’ll forget to change it, let’s be real), but for right now I’m having fun with this new and easy way to recommend books in my classroom! I’m on day 3 and none of the books have lasted the whole day. How do you recommend books to your students? #bookstagram #teachergram #iteachfifth #iteachtoo #teachersofinstagram #bookrecommendations

This semester, I’m back and pettier than ever! Swipe to see our new and improved novel time sign. My classes HATE when our read aloud gets interrupted, so we put this outside when we are reading to remind people to leave us alone 😂 (also, yes there is a misspelling on our green sign. It’s fine. We aren’t perfect and neither are kids!) #teachersofinstagram #iteachfifth #iteachtoo #teachergram #petty #currentlyreading #texasteachers

I go back to work tomorrow, so I’m mainly posting this as a pick-me-up for myself. I know I’ll be back in the swing of things by about 10 am tomorrow (my mom was a teacher her whole life and that’s what she always said about going back after a long break), but right now it seems overwhelming. To everyone whose break is ending today—I feel you! To everyone who went back to work last week—I feel for you. #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #iteachfifth #teachergram #backtoschool #iteachtoo

Our first Houston book swap was a total success! It was so fun meeting everyone and of course getting some new books 🤓 Thanks to @msadamsteaches and @mystudentscallmemiss for coming up with this awesome idea! #texasteachers #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #iteachtoo #teachergram #bookstagram

Houston teachers: come hang out with me, @msadamsteaches, and @mystudentscallmemiss! We’re hosting a book swap. 🤓 This is the perfect way for you to get some new reading material, especially if you have resolutions around saving money and/or reading more! #texasteachers #teacherswhoread #booksbooksbooks #teachersofinstagram
