Our fifth grade class is excited to share some of the ways we are learning and to connect with other enthusiastic classes.

Learning more about how @EmilyE_Smith creates a community of scholars through giving students more agency in their learning. Check out the Hive Society #TIW20

@BestPrepMN #TIW20 is off to a great virtual start. The question right now is how do you go beyond standardized testing to assess learning more authentically? Thoughts?

[Angela Harvala @MrsHarvala]

Here is the list of some of the questions I consider before a new school year. Teacher friends, what would you add?

Some conversations are just good for the soul. Thank you @LowellMilkenCtr @NormConard for facilitating our conversation today! @UtahTOY2014 @ericcrouch @Joshparker777 always have great ideas for making change in education.

*Parent Sparkles* I often talk about the #teachersparkles that come from exciting interactions with students. Today on the drive home from Evelyn's summer program, I was absolutely blown away! She understands! THIS is what learning is. THIS is what I love most about teaching.

[Angela Harvala @MrsHarvala]

In Minnesota we won't know for a while if teaching will be in person, online, or a hybrid model. None is currently ideal. In the event we are online, these are good things to keep in mind, and are shifts we should also be making regardless of the model.
