Sometimes kids will find the most amazing ways to lift you up. In my class there has always been a lone blue tile. Today this appeared on it... #MondayMotivaton @NipherMiddle

Wondering what young people are thinking about ways to fight #climatechange? Here's a message from some 7th graders I know about #sustainability and #energy.

@SmithsonianMag I was appalled to learn that this monstrous 40 page magazine, the largest junk mailer I’ve ever received, was sent to me because I subscribed to your magazine. For an organization that covers deforestation you sure don’t mind perpetuating it!

@SciJeanne Discrepant events are the most bang for my buck. Engaging, quick, research based, transforms schema etc..can incorporate a motor break by asking kids use bodies to show predictions beforehand. “Do a jumping jack up if you think it’s gonna do this! Or do a —- if you think ——“

A post was shared with me about how to include "Screen Time" in a student's grading. While I will not post a link I did get a screenshot to annotate. No matter what, this is exactly what NOT to do!! #techquity #digitalequity #culturalrelevance #remotelearning

Meeting the needs of diverse learners will seem much more manageable after viewing this module created by @klockekelly (@baylessschools), Olga McFadden (@waynesvilleHigh), @Adam_Scimone (@kirkwoodschools), and @MrsLawson143 (@officialSPS).

@NoApp4Pedagogy Lots of kids learn for 6 hours a day on a computer and nobody even tells them to do it. The volume of content and skills necessary for RPGs is astonishing. The problem isn’t the vehicle, it’s that we are asking them to learn is irrelevant to them.

Just now at the grocery store I saw someone verbally abuse an employee. I told the employee “you don’t deserve to be treated that way” and as I walked away I heard the customer immediately apologize. Don’t underestimate how your actions can influence others!

One of the shifts in my thinking this year as a coach and an educator is to stop focusing so much on how I work and start focusing on how I can know the impact of my work. Very hard to do right now when most of us are obsessed with “best practice.”
