@WriterYann My students just finished an amazing discussion of Life of Pi and they would love to ask you some questions! #zoomwithusplease #mykidsaregreat

@wcruz73 OMG! 😍 This show was my life in high school. I just rewatched the whole series and fell in love all over again. Love you Wilson! So glad to see everyone happy and well!

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

Wonderful way to wrap up a week! Thank you @JayHeinrichs for stopping by my classroom to enlighten my students about the joys of rhetoric and argument!

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

@ClintSmithIII You really should include this in your next collection of poetry. Maybe a collection of COVID-19 reflections on life...? ❤️📖

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

Yay! Can’t wait to see my students’ scores! 🤞💪

AP English Literature students demonstrated significantly stronger skills of literary analysis this year than in 2018, increasing the % of students scoring 3+ by several points. Kudos to AP teachers for reversing a multi-year decline in literary analysis. Keep up the good work.

@theteachingcurc @TeachMrReed Then I would say the same thing about all paid professionals. I’ve experienced some pretty crappy medical professionals who still get paid a lot, but no one is questioning their merits.

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

What a great collection! Excellent poetry resources here!

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

I am graduating this Friday! Woo hoo!! It’s been a long, hard road, but one that promises great rewards. #Classof2019 #GradSchoolMaster

@TeachMrReed I love Lil Clapback! #SarcasmIsMyFirstLanguage

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

Love this thread! Some great ideas here!

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

My students are dying to chat with @ClintSmithIII about #CountingDescent! #ThisIsWhyITeach ❤️📖

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

What a great way to celebrate individuality and foster community!

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

@ClintSmithIII We read some of your poems earlier in the year and they decided they wanted to read the entire collection. It has opened some excellent dialogue! I know they will take this experience with them. Thank you for speaking your truth!

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

My students and I found so much inspiration in these lines! I am really loving our study of the beautiful poetry of @ClintSmithIII #TeachLivingPoets #CountingDescent

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

Great idea! And it can be adapted for many other instructional uses and subjects!

Practicing sight words at home is made much easier with @Flipgrid. Recorded all of our #Kindergarten Sight Words in #PowerPoint as a 🎥 and now my Ss who struggle can practice at home and in the class at their convenience. #FlipgridFever #K2CanToo

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

@MelAlterSmith @ncte Thank you so much! I’ll have to check these out!

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

@ncte #NCTEvillage @MelAlterSmith Suggestions for books of contemporary poetry with a World Literature emphasis? Currently teaching Counting Descent in #aplit but want something for my sophomores for next year.

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

@ncte @MelAlterSmith Will do! Thanks!

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

@DawayneMcIntosh @Ozobot I am speechless! What is that? How do you use it with students? Does it communicate with a computer? ‘Splain, Lucy! 😎

[AFitz @MrsFitz1516]

@AmyDecker_OG Same here. I’ve been going back to thesis statements lately. My theory is if they have the map (thesis), they know where they’re going. Hopefully then it’s a little easier to get there.
