As educators we so often focus on the needs of our students. Especially when it comes to students experiencing trauma.

Adults face trauma too and it can have huge implications on their interactions and beliefs.

Thank you, Chikfila, for helping us become great scientists! We learned freezing and defrosting mayo turns a soft solid into a liquid once the oil separates. Changing matter is fun! #CFASaginawTX

A 3:
It begins with a plan of action. My students are given the same goal (TEKS), but given opportunities for success through individually specified processes and products.

A 2:
Teacher check ins during reading stations are a great time to check for comprehension/fluency.
Using Seesaw as an opportunity for the student to read aloud and answer questions is a great tool for assessing the student's comprehension and fluency.

A1: Partnership
I believe the art of collaboration is not only when two teachers come together to co-teach, but when ALL teachers come together in a partnership for ALL students. When we live it, we can teach it to our students through our actions.
