Our Huskies participated in an IditaRead, held in connection w/ the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. Finishers read for 1,049 minutes (the length of the Iditarod Trail is 1,049 miles), & many of our Huskies finished more than once! Thank you, Dr. McCool, for your leadership!

When you can’t find a dichotomous key with local species to use with your students … have students make ‘em themselves! @BISHuskyPride #Create #ThinkLikeAScientist #TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork

"Classrooms are moving to an assessment culture. The challenge remains for teachers to devise grading systems that adequately reflect this shift."
Not sure if it's gratifying or terrifying to know this has been a challenge since the early '90s.

“Teachers need to, in a sense, put on their oxygen mask first before they hand off a mask to students. Schools should make sure teachers have adequate training in self-care so they can in turn help their students.” #traumainformed #selfcare #support https://t.co/fG1C3kA0VF

“Collective teacher efficacy is ‘the perceptions of teachers in a school that the efforts of the faculty as a whole will have a positive effect on students’” (Goddard et al., 2000). https://t.co/JrY6vbJ5gJ

“For teachers to play a role in sustaining our schools, they need to have the intrinsic motivation to push through challenges, knowing they are supported and that their efforts matter.” #SustainableTeachingProject
