Howdy! I enjoy my wonderful and busy life. I’m always ready to learn or try something new. Life’s short. Be happy!

@CoachHurstMHS @DoughneyJ I'm considering my doctorate as well. I hope UNT offers online options in the coming years. #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

@finscience @DoughneyJ Yes, Witnessing is so powerful for others. #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

@MrKhanYe_ Me too! I have a notepad full of cheat clues to aide me in my classroom in the fall! #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

A9 Others can tell if you are actively listening. My conversations are deeper and more relaxed on both sides as I utilize these skills. Both light and heavy convos benefit. Just talking with my kids daily is enough to convert me! #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

@coach_williams2 @DoughneyJ The first question is powerful! Measure to accumulate data to offer feedback! #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

@LeeLavalle Many of us have included "resources" in our questions....hopefully the goal is to share them and encourage collaboration among our staff. #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

A8 Along with technology, what other resources are you utilizing in your planning? #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

@RyanKochel I like "concept retention" #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

A7 Knowing you strive to meet the needs of each of your students daily, what strategies have you put into practice to engage the students that require extra encouragement or effort? #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

@McCauleyDesiree I like how you assume observation. Perhaps probe what she observed that worked/didn't work in her observations? #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

A6 What ideas for integrating technology have you come across as you are planning engaging lessons? #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

@MrKhanYe_ @CoachHurstMHS I feel like I'm wasting my time with empty feedback. No direction! #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

@CoachHurstMHS @MrKhanYe_ Yep. Sugar-coating usually just leads to the development of "cavities." #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

A5 Negative negates the value, conciliatory negates the content. Reflective encompasses all. #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

@LibbyPacheco @DoughneyJ Yes, I agree. Arrogant leaders do not motivate, except perhaps through fear. True leadership is making others feel their worth. #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

@DoughneyJ I think if the human ego could be removed from all communication attempts, success would be far more common than it is. #EDLE5650

[Jennifer McLendon @Momof4mclendons]

@CrystalR_16 "balance" is a great word here. Balance is important in what we are trying to accomplish. Direct/Caring, Honest/Kind, etc...Hard stuff with a soft cushion for the landing! #EDLE5650
