2020-05-04Lift Every Voice and Sing - A Virtual Assembly
The tradition is every first Monday of each month the entire school would gather for an assembly. This Monday the assembly was virtual for the first time. Instead of singing, Lift Every Voice and Sing together, we were muted and we heard a muffle Dr. Roland M. Carter version. This was the first assembly I cried. -
2020-05-02What Spring has Sprung: Bus Driver vs. Elderly
This photo was taken at the beginning of COVID before it was mandatory to wear a mask. Thus, the bus driver being a non-masker. Nonetheless, he got off the bus to tell the elderly she COULD NOT get on the bus from the front. She was worried because the other two entrances were too high for her. He offered to lift her but she insisted on getting on from the front door. He eventually pulled off without her. -

2020-04-29Notes During Class 10 (A lesson on Anne Frank)
This image is apart of a series of screenshots taken during lessons via Microsoft Teams.Teaching my third graders from afar has become a challenge and a blessing at the same time. None of us knew of Mr. Microsoft Teams until we were forced to meet him. The way he impacts our lives is sometimes frustrating and other times satisfying. Unlike classroom noise, the chat that goes on during lessons are now mixed in with the lesson and available for all to participate- including the teacher! It's silent and said with caution and other times daring. (I've blurred the faces and redacted the names to protect the students' privacy.) -

2020-04-29Waiting to Return 2
When the school closed, it was unlike any other closing. Teachers left up the bulletin boards and projects were still hanging from the ceilings. Do we take down the maps and put away our figurines on our desk to keep from dust? When will we return? It's only March. The school year isn't over yet. A month later, the classrooms are still wondering. The teachers are still hoping. The students are still asking.The wishers are still wishing. The prayers are still praying. -
