Teachers, administrators, and support staff at schools must understand their own social-emotional abilities and attend to their own well-being before they can teach those competencies to their students. #SEL

Q6: Dear Fellow Teachers, we can do A LOT of things but not ALL things and that’s ok. Don’t feel guilty about taking time for yourself. I know what you’re going through and I’m honored to call you my peers. We got this! #T2Tchat

Lots of food for thought for us educators and our schools in this NYTimes piece.

What’s ONE thing you would do to make remote/distance learning more sustainable, less burdensome, or simply just better?

Do you know the symbolism and the elements of building an altar for Dia De Los Muertos? Mon. 11/2 at 6pm local artist Ofelia Faz-Garza will lead a workshop to explain all the details that make up an ofrenda. Register: https://t.co/tWIeoHeJRU @dallasculture @LaMexMama

Shaming reading choices can create reading trauma. If students are told that what they like to read (comics, manga and fan fiction, for example) do not “count,” they can disengage and lose their identities as readers.

This is beyond important. Never interrupt a child at work. It’s very easy to accidentally teach a child to always wait for someone else to do it.

[Montessori Global Education @Montessori_GEd]

42% of parents admit they often feel that they don't have the patience to let their children figure things out alone. It's important to encourage children to make their own decisions and learn things in their own time.

They grow up so fast...

Teachers need clear, consistent communication, especially during this time. It does so much to calm anxieties.

A recent study found that when students generate questions on a topic they’re learning, they’re much more likely to remember the material. Here are 5 ways you can encourage high-quality questions in your classroom. https://t.co/au3tFrQ9UM

Parent conference participation increased a ton in the virtual space. In some cases, 300%+.

Maybe our definition of “parental involvement” should have less to do with assuming parents don’t care and more to do with making engagement more convenient for families.

They do care.

Being kind, caring, supportive and patient with your staff doesn't make you a weak or soft admin; it makes you a leader.

Stay safe folks.

[Clay Lewis Jenkins @JudgeClayJ]

The county has moved back to red alert for Covid due to rising cases. I urge people to limit activities with crowds and people you don’t live with but voting is safe. We set up this years voting system to be safe in red. 🗳 https://t.co/9uf37qu8Pv
