Happy Friday! Leaders, take care of your staff!

[Mrs. Winter @MrsWinter6]

@TeachMrReed Administration should be encouraging this and making room in schedules to allow this to happen! Now more than ever our students need to have fun in school! I think some of the behavior issues we see would be few and far between!

[Dwayne Reed @TeachMrReed]

As a school administrator, I am fine with teachers playing games with their students, having class parties, and putting on a movie the last couple days before a major break. We should trust teachers’ discretion, and kids deserve to have fun.

A sign of exceptional leadership is to treat your staff with the same level of care and respect that you expect them to give to their students.

Teachers don't leave because it's hard. Teachers are some of the hardest working professionals I know. They leave because the expectations and demands become more unrealistic every year.

Please don’t respond to entire staff regarding issues of one person. Address these concerns privately with the individual. Handling conflict face to face may not be easy but is key. Responding to all makes the innocent feel like they’re in trouble & this crushes morale

We spend millions to implement research based practices. BUT, we ignore the extensive research that shows how play, recess, & physical activity, can improve focus, self regulation, and on task behavior, as well as academic achievement, interpersonal skills & mental health.

5 tips to reduce stress of staff.
1) if asking to meet with them, let them know why.
2) Don't address an issue you have with one person with the whole staff.
3) praise a lot more than you critique
4) less meetings
5) continual encouragement and support

Please don't remove students from physical education, music, Arts, or other classes to remediate them in other areas. These classes are just as important for overall education and may be their favorite classes and one reason they like school.

Why are we letting 18 yos sub in classrooms, but not letting college students going to school to BE EDUCATORS take open teaching positions in lieu of student teaching?? We learn best by doing.

Give them a supervising teacher, require check-ins, & for the love of God pay them.

[Nicole Biscotti, M.Ed. 🧡 @BiscottiNicole]

If we’re serious about students taking ownership of their learning then we have to normalize talking with kids about their needs, not talking about kids & deciding what we think they need.

Symmetry lesson! One of my students made me! I see the resemblance! Do you?

“I love the group playlist more than the station rotations.” “It allows time flexibility.” Playlist model allows me to “assess student learning on the spot”. @historysandoval 👀👀

[TeacherGoals @teachergoals]

Absolutely! 🙌

Celebrating Twosday!

This is so true! 🙌
