@teacher2teacher Stanier provides a handful of questions to help coachees get to the heart of their problem and work toward a solution. It's highly adaptable to just about any conversation. https://t.co/sujuAOIdyb

Usually, we do a selfie at the end of summer day workshops. The Zoom screenshot will have to do. I'm proud of the work we've been done this year (and in previous years) to support Idaho's educators, and I know the impact of the work will continue far into the future. #idcoachnet

We are deeply saddened by the news that longtime Scholastic CEO Dick Robinson died unexpectedly this weekend.

A deep partnership between NCTE and the Robinson family began early in the 20th century.

This has been the most fulfilling work in my 21 years in education. I’m so proud of the work @IDcoachingnet has done to model meaningful and impactful PD that values teacher expertise to move educators forward in their literacy teaching practices. #idcoachnet

What do top performers need at work beyond fair pay?
- Clear expectations
- Psychological safety
- No stupid rules or useless meetings
- Some sovereignty over what they do & how they do it
- A sense of purpose

A small team, committed to a cause bigger than themselves, can achieve absolutely anything.

Thanks to @nenagerman and the whole #CARBTE committee for asking #THEBOOKCHAT to join the antiracism pop-up sessions at #NCTE19. @JoelRGarza and I created this handout but ran out of copies. Check out a digital version here: https://t.co/JxFA84JoKK Share with your colleagues!

The curriculum isn't the standards, the assessments, or the "content" we have to cover.

The curriculum is the conversations we have with students. It is within these that we find the most meaningful and impactful moments for learning.
