@KenSaraj @jasperpascack @pvrhsd @PascackValleyHS Great episode!
I have got to say, it was oddly validating to hear that two of the greatest teachers I ever had are experiencing the same issues with post-covid student engagement & behavior. Here for any and all tips!

Beyond proud of the @OrangePrep debate team for taking home the victory in yesterday’s final tournament for the season! @ops_district @Gerald_Fitzhugh @OPAPrincipal

Great article! A student of mine recently pointed out that I often refer to my (teacher) colleagues by last name only, and I told them about this very phenomenon! #ProudPValumni

Juliet and this Guy Romeo by Don Zolidos is a modern adaptation of Shakespear’s Romeo & Juliet that will be hitting the stage at @OrangePrep in 15 days! There will be sword-fighting, dance breaks, and even the occasional Elibethean sonnet. @Gerald_Fitzhugh @ops_district

Just saw my former principal, Mrs. Richardson, on @News12NJ! Ann Street was a great place for me to begin my teaching career; I learned invaluable lessons during my time there. Wishing a successful school year to all of my friends at @nps_annstreet. #NJteacher

[Amanda Ressler @AmandaRessler42]

This support was so helpful! Thanks again, @ENeubauerIDE

When you're in a workshop but also have a personal consultant to brainstorm #PBLs with virtually... Love to see @OrangePrep T's making the most of their time this week! 🙌

What inspires me? The power of words. "My task, which I am trying to achieve is, by the power of the written word, to make you hear, to make you feel--it is, before all, to make you see." -Joseph Conrad #LATICchat

[Amanda Ressler @AmandaRessler42]

Authentic learning takes place when you build on ideas with your peers (or colleagues). Sometimes it’s as simple as brainstorming together. #LATICchat

[Amanda Ressler @AmandaRessler42]

One way that I empower students is through the use of Socratic Seminars. These student-led discussions allow them to direct the flow of conversation, identify important topics and questions, and collaborate on shared ideas.

[Amanda Ressler @AmandaRessler42]

This is so true. Words and actions. I would not be a language arts teacher today if Mr. Buchanan at @PascackValleyHS had not selected me to receive an award in his English class. It was the first time a teacher had pointed out that I excelled at something. I’m forever grateful.

[Orange_SocialStudies @opssocstu]

These class of 2027 Cougars from @ClevelandCSS are all ready to show @OrangePrep what #movingintogreatness looks like! Congratulations on helping @opssocstu from #goodtogreat!
