Planning my trip to Door County- staying at Parkwood Lodge. For friends who travel: https://t.co/Vd5OdVoo9I @ParkwoodLodge

@alicekeeler Either that or we are all math people. Being good at math is not something you are either born with or not. Given time, effort, and desire we can all learn to use math in amazing ways.

Retweet if you’re a teacher who plans to do some reading and / or PD this summer.

It's ok to get discouraged. It's not okay to stop.

These high school students are able to unplug and re energize in the afternoon thanks to recess!

[Brianne Allbee @MathMom_2718]

So many good reasons why watching each other teach is worth every minute!

To all the educators out there... trying to get some feedback:

What is something you’ve learned from a #student that has had a significant impact on either your professional or personal life?

Please reply and then retweet.

@justintarte The most important things I teach them everyday have almost nothing to do with my specific content - to keep trying, to never give up, grit, celebrate the moment

[Brianne Allbee @MathMom_2718]

Can we go even further and focus on collaboration and cooperation while learning rather than competition?

[Brianne Allbee @MathMom_2718]

Absolutely!!

[TeacherGoals @teachergoals]

Teachers need more than the theory, they need to see it in action. We need to make time to let teachers see each other teach! #teachergoals

[Brianne Allbee @MathMom_2718]

If you never fail, did you ever really try?

[TeacherGoals @teachergoals]

One of the best things about teaching is that if you screw it up today, you get another chance tomorrow!

Love this graphic. Too often we think being asked to change means we are wrong; maybe it really means there is something better just didn’t know. If we all approach pd this way, we may all find something to take away from it that benefits our students and us.

A6 - This character from #Drawn2Teach sums up my thoughts on professional growth. It's all about self-improvement. #tlap

1. Grading is, always has been, and always will be subjective - and we don't have to apologize for that.
2. Grades are not essential for learning, feedback is.
3. Grades in most high schools are with us for the foreseeable future so we must make them effective. #mohawkedchat

[Brianne Allbee @MathMom_2718]

So very, very true

[TeacherGoals @teachergoals]

Part of maintaining a good discipline structure is to have kids know you like them and your job. #kidsdeserveit #teachergoals

[Brianne Allbee @MathMom_2718]

It’s okay for every lesson to not be perfect. Sometimes the best made plans and ideas will fail, go with it. Today’s failures can become tomorrow’s successes.

Q1. If you could give your 1st year teacher self any advice, what would it be and why? #BeTheOne

[Brianne Allbee @MathMom_2718]

@alicekeeler Practice has its time and place in learning, but it doesn’t have to be done at home, doesn’t need to be the same for everyone, and shouldn’t determine a student’s final grade.

[Brianne Allbee @MathMom_2718]

Worth the read, something for us all to think about with every lesson
