My open house is coming up in a few weeks, which is the perfect time to showcase my student's digital work.]]> 2019-04-03 14:57:58 UTC https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348109197 https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348259464 I have been enjoying my time being pregnant with my first grade students. We have been able to share in more conversations having to do with their family life, as many of my students are expecting new babies in their families. I am also excited to be finishing off our time prior to spring break with a field trip to the San diego Safari Park and Open House. It will be so nice to have it all completed before we are off!]]> 2019-04-03 19:35:41 UTC https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348259464 jtitus2 https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348285097 My students have their Open House coming up in a few weeks.  I am excited for my students to showcase all of their work that they have completed during this school year.  I have enjoyed this class because it has encouraged me to try new programs with my students.]]> 2019-04-03 20:57:59 UTC https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348285097 https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348296064 At (nearly) 34 weeks pregnant I am trying to enjoy my last 7 school days with my students before I take off on maternity leave! I have been reflecting on our year so far and taking this time to set them up for success for the remainder of the school year. Although I am excited to start my leave and get ready for baby, I am sad to leave my "kids", knowing I won't see them again until next school year.]]> 2019-04-03 21:54:08 UTC https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348296064 https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348332240 My spring break is in 2 weeks, and my husband and I are going to Portland, Oregon. We have never been, and we are so excited!!!! I also bought a green screen and set it up in my classroom. We are making our second news video, so it will make things so much easier for our recording. Our first day of shooting is tomorrow, so I am looking forward to ]]> 2019-04-04 01:22:48 UTC https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348332240 ckrum1 https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348345375 At school we are gearing up for our Open House night. I don't usually have many parents show up but crossing my fingers this time it's different! There will be a slide show of pictures I took of the students throughout the year for parents to enjoy. At home my twins are turning 3 next weekend and we are looking forward to having a "Monster Truck" themed birthday at our house!]]> 2019-04-04 02:30:10 UTC https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348345375 rlowry1 https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348367200 This is very much a busy time for the Lowry household. Our dance studio has its first performance on Saturday April 13th, and my wife is working tirelessly to get eight routines ready. For those of you in the Central Valley, we are performing at 9 AM at the Tulare Antique Tractor Show, showtime at 9 AM.]]> 2019-04-04 04:47:09 UTC https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348367200 https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348742868 I am looking forward to our spring break in a couple weeks! We just bought a new house so we will be working on projects there over break. Hopefully we will get a chance to get to the beach also! In school life, we have our Open House tonight so I will be at school ALL DAY until about 7pm. That makes for one tired mama when I get home. Along with Open House we also have a fundraiser for our PTA. We have some great baskets donated this year. ]]> 2019-04-04 22:18:59 UTC https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348742868 https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348767755 I am looking forward to all our Spring art shows coming up! We are at the fun part of the year where we get to celebrate all that we've created. We have two out in the community in the next two weeks, then we will host our schools art show in May, right after the AP art test. Two things I'm looking forward to right now are spring break, and trying flipgrid for the first time! I teach blended and online so I can't believe I didn't know about this!! ]]> 2019-04-05 01:16:20 UTC https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/348767755 https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/349121752 My school held open house this week and it was great seeing families come and enjoy the work students have created. 5 more days until spring break! I am super excited, although I don't have much going on. I guess I am just ready for some time off from work! I do plan on spending time with my niece & nephew. They are growing way too fast and I want to enjoy every second I get to be with them. I also don't have kids of my own, so I take all the love I can get & then leave my brother and sis in law to do the hard work. :) ]]> 2019-04-06 05:19:53 UTC https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/349121752 https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/349300155 I just got a new student this week! I am looking forward to getting to know him and his family. This will be a challenge for me because he has a lot needs, but I see a lot of potential in him. I can't wait to see him learn and grow in the remained of the school year. He is highly motivated by the Ipad, so I'm looking forward to using some new apps with him to get him motivated to learn!]]> 2019-04-07 21:09:12 UTC https://padlet.com/erin_english2/y1qe39jp09y2/wish/349300155
