7th grade students used elements of suspense and foreshadowing to create spooky stories just in time for Halloween 👻

To the class of 2024: I’m incredibly proud of you and honored to have been your 7th grade teacher in 2018. You have such a special place in my heart. You are all going to change the world, and I can’t wait to see all that you’ll accomplish🫶🏽 @POBJFK @POBMS

You can basically call me a professional salsa dancer now! Just kidding🙈. This was scary, but today’s assembly was about taking risks, and that’s what I did! @POBMS had an amazing time with Brandon White @youthmover today. We were left inspired,and motivated to OWN IT!

Wishing everyone a blessed Ramadan!

This week marks 6 months since I’ve been married, and looking back, one of my FAVORITE memories was having my students perform on my big day❤️ @POBMusicDept

Sharing spooky stories on Friday the 13th using sensory details and elements that include suspense and foreshadowing! 👻👻👻

What’s better than cozying up with an independent reading book on a rainy Friday? 📖

Student scavenger hunt for our first week of school ice breaker!

In our classroom, our amazing students start the class the first five minutes of the period! Seeing our 7th and 8th graders taking on leadership roles is truly the best way to begin the day!

Congratulations to our 8th grade graduates! It’s been an honor being your teacher❤️ Good luck in high school! @POBMS

Last day of MAP fun! We had so much fun getting to know one another throughout the year! We will miss our daily Wordle challenges, sharing stories and laughs!

Full circle moment— at the spring concert I was reunited with POB proud parents Mr. Walowitz, my 4th grade music teacher and Mrs. Berger, my kindergarten and first grade speech teacher. We were reunited after almost 20 years!! @POBMS

It was an honor to serve as the club advisor for POB’s FIRST EVER middle school a cappella club, Nothing but Treble! I enjoyed every second singing with the kiddos every Friday. Our former club president, Kevin, would also come help lead our group! It was a terrific year.@POBMS

The Class of 2023 holds such a special place in my heart because they are the first group of kids I ever taught as a first year teacher in 2017! Congratulations @POBJFK Seniors! I’m so incredibly proud of you all! @POBMS
