Have you tried @figma.com FigJam templates? I made a bulletin board template and have already revised it with my class figma.com/community/file/1457074751016126412/digital-bulletin-board
We changed it to 'Question of the Week' & they are into it! Love what they will share on these dynamic boards!

For our reading club, my student talked me into reading Starfish by Lisa Fipps. It's heartbreaking, but her way of explaining what middle school is like for her.

Have to say, I use this image so often with my middle schoolers...so helpful for frame of reference. It opens up a lot of curiosities and connections! infographicsite.com/infographic/...

Best day ever!
Started w/weekly writing clinic, went on virtual field trip to the Constitution Center in Philly,
then ended w/ a walk downtown to hear author @devpetty at @townecenterbks with kids in person and online.

It was quite a writing day!🥰

Virtual middle school is definitely my jam!

So the pep talk lesson was so needed today…40+ 6-12th gr expressing their stress and functional freeze over Zoom. We all felt better with collective reflection. (My poster IS helping)

Try it with your students! read.bookcreator.com/E6ZFR6HRA5Od...

This retelling of the classic Legend of Sleepy Hollow is a great updated version w/ mystery, drama, and lots of humor.

So much can be solved through options in education...Im so happy to be one of those, where students can choose the pathway that works best for them to learn. ❤️ #BTS #YR30
