Language is the foundation for education. All students should strengthen their language skills--not just ELL students. Without language, we have no foundation for development, for growth. #EncourageLangauge #LanguageGrowth @preparing2teach

What do the experts say about how to teach ELLs? We did the interviews, and identified these 6 approaches. https://t.co/aT9nDcdmFc

Children need to feel comfortable to learn. They need space to explore, space for their minds to expand. Do you think the "chair and desk" combo is big enough? @preparing2teach #DifferentiateTheEnvironment #DifferentiateLearning

Poverty will always be a factor. How can we, as educators, lesson this gap? What can we incorporate? How can we accommodate or modify to ensure our students are receiving the best eduction possible? SES levels shouldn't determine intelligence. #StudentsEarnSucess

Despite efforts to narrow the gap in academic achievement between those born into families with the highest and lowest levels of education and household resources, the gap remains wide. https://t.co/qqMVPz6eYK #InTheNews #EdChat #BehindTheHeadline

Scores should reflect knowledge and comprehension--not seasonal change. #KnowYourClimate #ClassroomClimate @preparing2teach

Didn't think #ClimateChange could affect students' academic performance? Think again. https://t.co/cMWUsSdrIZ

If teachers are feeling overwhelmed, how are students feeling? Its essential to take care of yourself--so you can care for your kiddos. @preparing2teach

[Education Week @educationweek]

"Often when I ask educators how they're feeling, the most common phrases I hear are, 'I'm overwhelmed' and 'I'm so stressed.'" https://t.co/TyhARaTMcD #ewopinion

One change will effect the flow of the classroom. Classrooms are like puzzles, everyone fits, but when new pieces are added, things have to be switched, changed and repositioned to create the best fit. @preparing2teach #WeAllFit #NewStudentNewClassroom

"My first mentor teacher told me, 'When you get a new student, you don’t have just one new kid. You have 25 new kids.'

He was right."

@AnnaEdfo @preparing2teach Love this article! It speaks to the importance of engagement--and differentiating that engagement to each kiddo! @preparing2teach

[MissBee @MissBee65411762]

Engage students. Encourage students. Provide relevant content to students to ensure they are engaged and find the "why." @preparing2teach #Relevant #Connect #Educate

[MissBee @MissBee65411762]

@RachelDePew @preparing2teach I love this!! Sometimes, teachers are the only "safe haven" for kiddos. It's a big role to fill, but when done well, it can be very rewarding for both parties. @preparing2teach

Differentiation is not "a plan per student." Differentiation is awareness of the classroom dynamic. Differentiation is providing the best approach to instruction, for every student/ #DifferentiEducate #ModesOfLearning @preparing2teach

[Education Week @educationweek]

When some teachers think of differentiating instruction, they imagine having to create a different lesson for every student in the room.

“That insanity is not what differentiation is all about,” says veteran teacher and author @Larryferlazzo. https://t.co/fZdO4PHWz8

"We aren't in it for the income, we're in it for the outcome." Teaching is all about heart, but passion doesn't always provide resources for a better classroom, it also doesn't pay the bills.@preparing2teach #ValueThisField #IncomeHelpsTheOutcome

[Education Week @educationweek]

“Although teaching is a profession, the way that teachers are paid looks a lot more like the way we pay blue-collar workers in the United States,” said Jacob Vigdor, a professor of public policy and governance at the University of Washington. https://t.co/L4fhZZ9hG5
