You have no idea how excited they were to see you, have their cookies, and now we spend our dismissal time watching Triple G and they cheer when you come on the screen. Thank you for bringing a little magic into my classroom 🔥
When you’re at the State Fair and are checking out some artwork and run into yourself and the other Excellence in Education winners! What an incredible experience and surprise!
@ChinoviaS
My boys bet me lunch with

with BBQ if they passed both state tests and got the highest scores. Not only do we keep our bets but we pull through with amazing scores. I figured a level 4 on both tests deserve BBQ from

The Jersey is so sentimental and means more to me then you will ever know. Thank you for seeing me not only as a human but as an educator who loves what she does 🤍
Teaching a new grade can be challenging. Teaching a new concept can be frustrating especially when kids are struggling. Today we decided to work in pairs to solve multiplicative comparison problems using a strategy that makes sense to us and coaching one another.
The first chapter of Small Group Math Instruction has been posted in our Facebook group. Chapter 1: Live, Laugh, Love and other a House is Not a Home Cliches. Here’s a sneak peek at what’s discussed and the importance of classroom set up in the foundation of instruction.
Loved getting to use the opportunity of collaborating with
@PatrickTheGiver
to share my platform as DTOY for
@HillsboroughSch
of leaving a legacy beyond the four walls of the classroom 🔥🤍
Today I visited
@oakparklions
in Tampa and these students are super talented. They designed some
@EinsteinBros
coffee cups, lids and sleeves for their teachers. It’s nothing better than positive affirmations in the morning. ☕️ 🎨
Happy First Day of School to all my teachers and administrators in
@HillsboroughSch
and any other districts who start today in Florida! You are magical and it is going to be an incredible year. Take every moment of today to leave your legacy on your new students! 🤍🔥🤍🔥
Decided on challenging myself to move outside of my comfort zone and share how I run small group math! Feel free to join my Facebook group “Small Group Math with Nikki B” on Facebook!
A week ago I had the pleasure to meet the other 73 FLDTOY and learn from them. Inspiring, invigorating, passionate, elevated, celebrated, supported, loved, growth, educational are words that only begin to describe the most incredible week of my life.

I am, two of the most powerful words for what you put after them shapes your reality. Their clipboards all year had positive affirmations, I can’t let them go to middle school without them carrying a reminder of who they are, can be, and are capable of being.
@oakparklions
Join us as we participate in The Amazing Race for the next 50 days as we prepare for FSA. Students participate in a quiz on a different math skill and will get to claim they traveled to the state if they earn a 60% or higher. We cheered “Roll Tide” as we traveled to Alabama!
If you want to experience data awareness, relationships beyond measure, stubbornness with good intentions, tenacity, grit, perseverance, strategic thinking, mountain moving love, passion, words that cause chills, if you want your teacher soul spoken to
@RyanMoodyHCPS
is your man
What an incredible day getting to be visited by

She’s been asking for you all week! So of course if we finished our work we had to stop by to say hello to our favorite school counselor!

#startwithhelloweek
Our favorite days are when we set goals to hit when we test. Students get a personalized goal, plan hot to achieve hit and then rock their QMT whenever we take it. Testing days are always fun in room 204. Can’t wait to celebrate their greatness when they’re done!
It was the greatest surprise to be cheered on by these incredible educators who I look up to. I can wait to follow in their footsteps through this journey! “Leave a Legacy”
I had such a great time this morning participating in the PACER Test with our Eagles! It is so important for us and our students to stay active but have fun while doing so.
Today was fill with confetti, high fives and chest bumps as we celebrated
@RyanMoodyHCPS

Thank you, Mr. Brand, for your visit and for staying after to speak with one of our Ss! It was very impactful to witness this moment between you, the student, and
@MsBarone1922
at the end of your session! Always make time to listen to our Ss! 💯
Nikki B’s Deli opened up in Tampa for its annual pop up shop! Students worked on their array strategy of multiplication to solve word problems and make sense of array models. These hard workers are officially professionals and are ready to sell you the best food in the Bay.

Ida S Baker, Alexandra Flores TOY, & Mayibe Castro Instructional Support!
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but to be limited by too few words to sum up our first trip isn’t fair. If you only experienced the awe and excitement behind each of these moments captured you’d understand how impactful this field trip was
@oakparklions
It was a pleasure to get to meet you and have you visit the amazing Oak Park Elementary School! We cannot wait to have you come back and visit us again this year!!
Consistent small group instructional practices taking place in every classroom visited at Oak Park Elementary. Students were able to articulate the daily objective and demonstrate how to successfully meet content-based expectations. A system of care is evident at Oak Park!
