This is super important and something we as educators need to pay attention to in the classroom

Teachers share their most memorable holiday gifts. Some are poignant, others hilarious, and others still are just plain bizarre. https://t.co/MTx76iaDq5

@ChalkbeatCO I love this article!! It highlights and defines the important aspects teachers need in their own classroom

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

"Teachers need to be able to teach children English; how to use English to learn; & how the English language works."

This resonated with me because my ESL students to understand what is happening in the classroom. By knowing the 3 skills, it will benefit them in the long run.

This is an awesome article!!

When a special education teacher and a regular classroom teacher are teamed in the classroom, they can multiply each other’s strengths. Here’s a look at a successful co-teaching partnership: https://t.co/iJgP8g2N0y #speced #coteaching

@FelicityKeel This is very true and it should be important to have a balance of both types of motivation

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

@KylieRivera20 I agree with you and I love the gif. It is our job to motivate our students and if we come in every day showing positivity and passion it will reflect on our students.

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

@AlexWFarrell I agree as well, we need to create a classroom that promotes motivation and a positive classroom that builds up our students.

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

@emily_martire Not only should educators have motivation but they should have passion

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

@BlombergEmily This is so true! We need to know how to motivate students in a way that fits them best.

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

This is a great article with ideas on how to motivate students in the classroom. https://t.co/QRb0SzdeY8

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

I want to create a classroom where there is motivation and encouragement from both me and my students through community bonding

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

With assessment, there should be reflection because it can help us understand how to become better and effective educators.

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

Motivation begins with us as educators. If we show our motivation and passion for our students, they will reciprocate it back.

@BlombergEmily This is a great idea. Do you plan on using this in practicum and student teaching? If so, let us know how that will turn out.

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

@AlexWFarrell I feel the same way about peer assessment because it makes me feel like my peers will judge me for my work. Even though I have this, I also agree that it can be powerful when used correctly

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

@SarahSamStern2 Teachers should try to use these at least once in their class and get a feel for what the students are most comfortable with.

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

@mmveled This really hit home. Many students struggle with test taking and they base their lives pretty much off of test scores and whether they did good or not. Learning should be about growing not testing.

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

@ErinJac10571370 This is a harsh reality that should be changed in the classroom.

[Kenna Carroll @KennaCarroll10]

Based on what we have talked about recently in class, I thought this was a brilliant article to share for seeing if our assessments are effective.
