I am a 5th grade math/science/social studies teacher at SSE in the Central York School District. I have two sons (3yr. & 1yr.) who keep me very busy!

I want all of my kiddos to be SUPERHEROES in their own way. To do that, I'm ready to focus more on explicitly teaching about willpower, growth mindset, and creating good habits in my classroom. This course has taught me to be SUPER! https://t.co/gI6YD1BhBh

Did you ever think of forgiveness as a selfish act? Well, it can be. Forgiveness has health benefits for the mind and the body. With that said, true forgiveness is not an easy process, but when done meaningfully, it is a superpower in itself! https://t.co/cBccBnn5fX

We live among heroes in our every day lives, but do our students know this? As educators we need to remind our students that you do not have to be famous to be a hero. It is how we overcome our struggles that shape the person we become. Don't believe me? https://t.co/0xqagwjcfm

Preparing ourselves for failure can actually improve our willpower and help lead us to success in accomplishing our goals. We can help improve our willpower with sleep, meditation, exercise, and the correct diet! Want to know more? Check out this course!

We always say, "Don't sweat the small stuff," but sometimes it's the small stuff that can make our day run more smoothly. Check out some of these winning habits for teachers! Thoughts and ideas inspired by Superpowers for Educators! https://t.co/cBccBnn5fX

Teaching kids about a growth mindset has benefits that can be seen far beyond the day's lesson. Hearing kids recognize their growth vs. fixed mindset thinking is so rewarding! No more "I can't"! Want to learn more? Check out Superpowers for Educators! https://t.co/o33wumo5S0

Do you use Kahoot! in the classroom? Did you know you can use the "image reveal" feature to give hints before time's up? Have you thought of using Kahoot! as a way to introduce a topic and spark conversation? No? Well try it out! @GetKahoot

Enjoy what’s left of summer! See you all on the Twittersphere! #SM4EDUchat

[Mrs. Sicuranza @Hubbs_Sic_Math]

@AndrewWalls I am hoping to use it along with a class hashtag to share out what we are doing in class. I haven't thought about more uses, yet! Baby steps! #SM4EDUchat

[Mrs. Sicuranza @Hubbs_Sic_Math]

@PEHimps I would not want to be on the side of handling the proper technology use with students! Ahhh! #SM4EDUchat

[Mrs. Sicuranza @Hubbs_Sic_Math]

@PEHimps I have found some great teachers to follow on Instagram as well! #SM4EDUchat

[Mrs. Sicuranza @Hubbs_Sic_Math]

@PEHimps My 4-6th building has about 750 and the HS graduates about 500 seniors each year. Crazy since I graduated in a class of 75! #SM4EDUchat

[Mrs. Sicuranza @Hubbs_Sic_Math]

A4: With regards to in-class use, my eyes were opened to how Instagram can be used in the classroom as an educational tool. I know most kids are "over" Facebook (man, I feel old) so using Instagram might be more engaging for them. #SM4EDUchat
