Decided to try something new today and make use of our hill outside. Introducing Exercise Ball Plinko! 2nd graders had a lot of fun with this! #physed#plinko
Some people face challenges and difficulties and think, “Why is this happening to me?”
Others face the same things and think, “What can I learn from this? What can I do to make it better?”
The struggles make you stronger. So remain optimistic and grateful no matter what.
Good curriculum is important... but skilled teachers are actually vital! We should all still be learning and expanding our math knowledge— we should do more math with each other! #CoreAdvocates
The five finalists for teacher of the year in Duval County are all teachers of color. And that matters. I wrote some words to express why we should care. Yes, I'm a white dude. https://t.co/y1m1K1GdHj

The person who will influence you the most is not the person you believe in. It's the person who believes in you.
You bring out the best in others when you see the best in them.
A critical spirit is diminishing. Affirmation is empowering. When you lift up, you lead up.
Brilliant fractions discussion on “Would I lie to you?” - do you agree or disagree - prove it (I’d find a bar model the easiest 😉) @Hertsmaths @ATMMathematics@mathscpdchat
From a second grade girl. This was years ago, but her face and fear is indelibly in my memory. Dramatic, yes. That's who she was. Can we end the tyranny of timed tests?
