To my white educators: Today, you’re posting about social justice, buying antiracist books, following brown folks, and temp changing your profile pictures. (thread)
Here’s what I need you to do tomorrow:
I’m feeling the “power” in empowerment right about now! Shout out to @monkul_first for an awesome PD. “YOU research, YOU decide, YOU teach. Don’t let a program take YOU out of the equation.” 👊🏼 👏🏼 @SoutheasternEl1#SESexplorers
Thank you @DanielleChas1 for coming to read “Not A Stick” to us this morning! Watching the students genuinely get excited page after page was a beauty to witness! The Ss ❤️ putting their own imaginations to work! #PowerOfBooks#SESjoy@SoutheasternEl1 💕📚
The power of learning together makes us all better! I was inspired by @heidi_greer at our PLC yesterday to wonder and inquire with my kiddos this morning! 💭❓#SESexplorers@SoutheasternEl1
We had so much FUN today playing “Who’s Talking” and “Phone Frenzy”! We practiced using our Focus Attention, Listening and Self-Talk learning skills too! 👀👂🏼🧠 #SELlearning#SESexplorers@SoutheasternEl1
The power of observational drawings happened in art today. Students learned facts about crickets, listened to them, and observed them while making detailed drawings. @LauraGetz1969
Absolutely loved meeting all of my third grade Explorers tonight at the Ice Cream Social! Seeing all of these little boots lined up made my heart smile and flutter with excitement for our journey together this year! 🧭 #SESExplorers#explore2019@SoutheasternEl1
RCA will hold a two-hour webcast on July 16th at 6PM (est) to give specific details on how to implement a house system (or how to improve the one you already have!) At that time we will also debut our new house app for how your school can track and display points!
S1- “Guys we have 20 toothpicks that we can divide between 4 cups, so that will be 5 toothpicks for each cup.” S2- “But we won’t be able to make the shape of triangles evenly on each cup because that is three sides each.” #TCECardinals
