PD in our PJ’s! This morning has been all about key shifts in Math. This afternoon will have us digging into grades, assessments, and data!

Some of your colleagues might seem like they have it all together. They don’t. Everyone has struggles. Everyone is dealing with stuff. And everyone appreciates kindness.

We are very excited to welcome Joe Beckman to the AHSTW School District. Mr. Beckman will speak to our students, staff, and community regarding the building of human connections and love of self. Here is a link to a preview of Joe's message! https://t.co/VndQh7DnIQ

Five goals when defusing an upset kid:

1. Treat student w dignity.
2. Preserve your own dignity.
3. Keep them in class.
4. Remain a 2nd to last word person.
5. Teach & practice alternative behavior.

Loving your team also means you challenge them to reach their full potential. When you love someone you don't let them settle for anything but their best.

“When intervening with struggling learners, start where they were last successful.” ~Rachel Brown @FastBridgeLearn #successbreedssuccess #FastForward19

[Cristin Rold @MrsRold]

Talk about getting hit by a ton of bricks. @kevinhoneycutt shared that “Today’s kids are raising themselves on a digital playground and nobody is on recess duty.” #FASTForward19

[Cristin Rold @MrsRold]

Dosage matters! When we do more intervention and less high quality universal instruction, the intensity decreases!!! #FASTForward19 @AHSTW4_8

[AHSTW Intermediate School @AHSTW4_8]

We need strong universal instruction because “a rising tide raises all ships”!! ~Sarah Brown #FASTForward19

[AHSTW Intermediate School @AHSTW4_8]

Thanks, @kevinhoneycutt! Awesome start to the week.

#FASTForward19 learning about Math assessments. @AHSTWbaseball I will learn all about Mathing yet!! Also, beautiful sunshine and a warm breeze are apparently my optimal learning conditions.
