@cstrain24 @LeoneClark I agree. I get in a rut of doing the same things over. #Q4PLCTalk

@HoodVhood @LeoneClark As a teacher I so appreciate this. #Q4PLCTalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@LeoneClark A9- I plan to be more collaborative with my students. Giving them voice and a choice in their class is definitely going to help them learn and feel an ownership over their education. #Q4PLCTalk

@cjohnson_LES @LeoneClark Brain Pop is great!!!! It’s interactive and the kids love it! #Q4PLCTalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@GrashaErin @LeoneClark Googled slides are a great tool for online learning. #Q4PLCTalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@LeoneClark A8- I use google slides to make daily slides for myself and as a way to give the lesson in written form. I also use class dojo which is a great way to get both students and parents involved in their learning. #Q4PLCTalk

@As_SueSeesIt @LeoneClark One of my more intentional goals for this year is to teach my kids it is ok to make mistakes as long as they learn from them. Mistakes are apart of life so don’t fear them. Learn from them. #Q4PLCTalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@cjohnson_LES @LeoneClark I agree! #q4ctalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@LeoneClark A7: I relate more to Chrissy. One of my big goals as a teacher is getting students to have a growth mindset and to not be afraid of making mistakes as long as we learn from them. #Q4PLCTalk

@LeoneClark A6- I try to teach my students flexibility. Sometimes things don’t go as planned and we need to be ok with adjusting to make it work. I also definitely do flexible grouping. I try to put groups together so kids have the opportunity to work with everyone #Q4PLCTalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@HoodVhood @LeoneClark YES! It is so important for them to become the incredible people they are and this is one of the best ways to help them discover themselves.

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@ctcoach @LeoneClark I love the idea of student exploring who they are through voice and choice!

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@LeoneClark A5- pt1: voice and choice allow students to been seen and heard. It lets them know that their voice matters. Pt 2: allowing them to choose what they want to write about is a great option. #q4plctalk

@britt1marsh @LeoneClark It’s always exciting when you find something new, creative, and engaging! It’s like the teaching jackpot! #Q4PLCTalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@vilmavtx1 @LeoneClark Yes!!!! This is me too! #Q4PLCTalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@LeoneClark A4- I am interested in learning how students think and learn. It has always fascinated me. That’s why I enjoy small groups because it gives me an up close look at how they think and learn which will then help me drive my lessons. #Q4PLCTalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@ctcoach @LeoneClark This goes hand in hand with giving students a voice and choice and personalized learning. #Q4PLCTalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@AnnaTXTeacher @LeoneClark I feel like it helps students understand that there can be more than one career they could do. It gives them more opportunities. #Q4PLCTalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@LeoneClark A3- “Teachers must guard against merely assigning more work for question 4 students and focus on open-ended assignments…” #Q4PLCTalk

[Katelyn Newton @MrsNewtonTeach]

@HoodVhood @LeoneClark That the number one thing I ensure I do as a teacher. I want my students to know that I am on their side and they have me in their corner. I also want them to know that I see them more than a student; I see them as the people they are and will be. #Q4PLCTalk
