Traveled to Hazelhurst, Wisconsin for a quick unplugged getaway. Woke up to a Winter Storm Warning and 6 inches of fresh snow. The perfect stay-inside-and-read-a-book kind of day. #WinterEscape#UpNorthWisconsin
Back at it—officially working on Master’s degree #2. Grateful, motivated, and reminded how much I benefit from taking notes and reading books on paper. #GradSchool#LifelongLearner

A sweet surprise from a student’s grandma visiting from Spain—turrón de estepa! 🇪🇸✨ Moments like these remind me how food connects us across cultures. Grateful for students who share their traditions!
Annotating maps = a powerful tool for MLs! 🗺️❄️🔥 Teaching cold → colder → coldest & warm → warmer → warmest becomes more meaningful when students see it in context. Visuals + language = better comprehension!
Students are strengthening their English by writing about objects, properties, and materials. Each takes a turn at the board as we refine their sentences together. It’s incredible to see newcomers expand their vocabulary and express ideas more effectively. ❤️

📖✏️ Interactive Writing Notebooks = Game Changer! 🚀
Giving ESL students hands-on ways to explore grammar & writing makes learning engaging & memorable! These notebooks keep them active in their learning. 💡✨
🌍✨ This week, my students learned science words—objects, materials, and properties—using realia! 🏠🔬 Hands-on materials made vocabulary real, helping them describe textures like soft, hard, cold, transparent.
The best part? It sparked real-world connections to what they see at home!
A powerful reminder that teachers believe in their students and see their potential, even when they don’t see it in themselves. Education matters—it shifts perspectives, breaks generational cycles, and opens doors to new possibilities. ✨ #Educated#TaraWestover#TeachersMatter#BreakingBarriers
