There are so many forces that want to distract you from your 'why'. I'm not talking about just your @KSDEredesign 'why', but all of the 'whys' for your life. Can't answer 'why'? Then reevaluate whether it needs a priority in your life.

IM K–5 Math is coherent, and designed to provide all students access to rigorous grade-level content. How can it be adapted for a multi-grade classroom? Read this week’s featured blog post for wisdom from pilot teachers & IM Facilitator Jen Hawkins. https://t.co/n5FYnLR3Oy

An ENTIRE day dedicated to #geniushour and what it can look like during the #remotelearning experience and beyond! Mark your calendars 🗓️. More details coming soon!

Without a willingness to invest, remote learning will never be sustainable. Our focus on engagement is more important than ever before. What can be done at the beginning of the week to spark a willingness to invest in your learners? https://t.co/KlF1bv5Dok #remotelearning

Repeat after me… Self-care doesn’t make you selfish. It makes you self-aware, self-balancing, self-discovered, self-healing, self-helping, self-motivated, self-preserving, and self-sustaining!... What do you do for self-care?

Don’t be afraid to admit when things aren’t going well during this time. We had no “best practices” in place for remote learning during a pandemic. We are learning as we go and it’s okay to pivot and try something new if what you are doing isn’t working. #remotelearning

A1: They are part of our must dos on some days. We try to make them fun game activities or get students outside and active. #IgnitePK6

[KS Dept of Education @ksdehq]

A2: Our focus is in relationships first. As we ease back into essential skills we know everyone will stay engaged if they know they are seen and heard. We talked again today about 1 main contact for the harder to reach families instead of many. #IgnitePK6

When you have 20 people (parents, teachers, followers) saying positive things & 1 person saying negative, if you focus on the negative, then you are saying that person’s opinion is more important than the other 20. Don’t get wrapped up with negative people.

[Andi McNair #ameaningfulmess @mcnairan3]

Assigning daily work = to the amount of work in a typical day assumes that our learners have not in any way been impacted by what is going on around them. This is not school... it's different and it's hard. Learning is important but so is the emotional well-being of our learners.

[Andi McNair #ameaningfulmess @mcnairan3]

This is not the time to raise expectations. Instead, we need to simplify learning & encourage authentic connections. I finally got some of my thoughts onto a graphic and into a website. I hope it makes sense and helps in some small way. https://t.co/KlF1bv5Dok #remotelearning

#ThoughtForTheDay Students who were struggling in school before are still struggling. Those who were doing well may now be struggling too. Remember that some teachers might be overwhelmed w/the amount of extra support they are needing to provide for all kids. Grace. #Culturize
