For those who use their passion to help students achieve their college and career dreams, for those who understand that we have to truly see students and get closer to their worlds to help them achieve their goals, for those who teach from their heart: Happy #WorldTeachersDay!

#Learning happens in the #reflection. Use the 3-2-1 reflection #strategy to help your #students develop this skill. This will empower them to take ownership of their learning and deepen their #understanding of content.

Something to consider -How Do We Want to be Remembered?
•Money comes and goes. Kindness lives on forever.
•Titles come and go. Empathy lives on forever.
•Appearances come and go. Generosity lives on forever.
•Social Media comes and goes. Integrity lives on forever.

Here are 3 habits for performing better in school and taking ownership of your learning journey:
1. Use an assignment log to track your assignments and grades.
2. Capture, process, and use your notes.
3. Collaborate with your teacher and peers to have a network of success.

Learning about the @AVID4College 4 A's of Digital Learning and appreciate that there is always an explicit role of the instructor in all student learning, even when the majority of the work is on the students. Student-centred does not mean teacher-absent. #AVIDDigitalXP

Many great opportunities scheduled for Pretzel educators to choose from during our FSD Summer Institute this week!
