@MarkieMartin At my school we still do snacks/mints before testing, though the A/C is controlled by our central office so it doesn't change. I know teachers that would if they could though. Some things never change #OklaEd

@wormdannnn @MarkieMartin We don't have to change the clocks anymore thanks to new regulations. That backwards clock was super weird. Made it feel like the longest day ever.

When you are a principal and you can't wait to see your students and staff for the beginning of school, you must do a dance challenge! #InMyFeelingsChallenge #DoTheShiggy #Anythingforkids #PrincipalSwag

“And it is through fantasy that children achieve catharsis. It is the best means they have for taming wild things.”

@cvian87 Absolutely! A student can have above average intelligence, but still struggle academically due to things like AD/HD, sensory issues, medical needs, etc. Whole student picture is important as they can be capable of the work but still may need accommodations to be successful.

[Kerri Rainey @MonroeCounselor]

What a great idea! https://t.co/Ca3pKmqNDb

[Hannah Mynhier @hannahUNC]

Love this idea! And love calling a substitute teacher a “guest teacher”. @KnoxCountyPBIS

If being an educator makes me an extortionist, then I must be a criminal. So watch me try to steal the pain from... https://t.co/1M7UgxnBqs

[Kerri Rainey @MonroeCounselor]

I tell my teachers frequently that if a child is acting out in their classroom it is because they feel safe enough to let their emotions out. Children need safe adults who can help them navigate their feelings not bottle them up. https://t.co/Vd8C0Wi7ba

"A hurtful child is a hurt-filled child. Trying to change her behavior with punishment is like trying to pull off only the top part of the weed. If we don’t get to the root, the hurtful behavior pops up elsewhere." #TraumaInformedPractices #ACEs https://t.co/Ra7k612YIG

I'm comfortable giving the student who needed 4 attempts to master a skill the same grade as the student who only needed 1 attempt.

'If' a student learns is more important to me than 'when.'

[Justin Tarte @justintarte]

Each kid walking down the hall deserves eye contact & a simple hello. This is an easy way to model 'adulting' for kids. #edchat #education

[Justin Tarte @justintarte]

If someone can't read, we teach.

If someone can't add, we teach.

If someone can’t behave, we NEED to teach... not just punish.

[Justin Tarte @justintarte]

Allowing a student to retake an assessment says to the student you believe in them & their ability to do better.

It says your learning is my goal.
