This is why showing pride matters. This is why NOT talking about LGBTQ+ History and People hurts our students. We need to speak up and we need straight cis teachers to do it too. #RepresentationMatters #RespectMatters #Pride2018 #LGBTQ+ #LGBTQHistory #PrideParade #IAmHumanToo https://t.co/qilrrxGc08

Lesbian, gay and bisexual students are twice as likely to report being bullied, three times as likely to seriously consider suicide and four times as likely to attempt suicide, a new report says. https://t.co/lajPd1c3se

@claudia_sever @MTMS_at_NCTM I like that idea a lot. Pick something, ANYTHING, to intentionally encourage students to say and do. #MTMSCHAT @MTMS_at_NCTM

[Esther Rose Manske @MsManskeChi]

@klgast @ChasGregory314 @TeacherKaizen @MTMS_at_NCTM @joboaler Yes, and it is always nice to go back and revisit it throughout the school year. It reminds them that it is soooo important that you are spending more time talking about mistakes. #MTMSchat

[Esther Rose Manske @MsManskeChi]

@ChasGregory314 @klgast @TeacherKaizen @MTMS_at_NCTM @joboaler YES! This! Absolutely! #MTMSchat

[Esther Rose Manske @MsManskeChi]

@ChasGregory314 @klgast @TeacherKaizen @MTMS_at_NCTM It is really amazing the discussions you will hear between students when you spend the time teaching them how to talk and continue to revisit #AccountableLanguage throughout the school year. You have to be consistent, but it works. #MTMSchat

[Esther Rose Manske @MsManskeChi]

@BethNctm I make sure 2 encourage a #GrowthMindset. Mistakes help us grow & build connections btwn topics. The more I make "mistakes" in front&show how I bounce back from them, or why I made the mistakes, the more students are willing to engage in this process. #MTMSchat

[Esther Rose Manske @MsManskeChi]

@ChasGregory314 @klgast @TeacherKaizen @MTMS_at_NCTM I spend a good portion of the beginning of the school year focused on how to talk about math. #AccountableLanguage has been HUGE in facilitating excellent, student led, classroom discussions. #MTMSchat

[Esther Rose Manske @MsManskeChi]

@MTMS_at_NCTM A4 How? Why? How? Why? How? Why? #MTMSchat I often tell my students that I don't care about the right answer as much as how they got the right answer. #AccountableLanguage They will respond with "I know _____ because ____" or "I disagree with _____ because____" @NCTM

[Esther Rose Manske @MsManskeChi]

@MTMS_at_NCTM Q3 Sometimes, I literally hand a student a white board marker, I give them a topic or problem, and I say, its your turn to lead the class through this problem. This works really well after building a culture of #AccountableLanguage and #AccountableListening. #MTMSchat @NCTM

[Esther Rose Manske @MsManskeChi]

@MTMS_at_NCTM A2 Because I taught the same grade level for 3 years, then switched to a different one last year, and now I moved across the country, I have no idea what exact content I will be teaching next year. So I am focusing more on improving teaching techniques vs content. #mtmchat

[Esther Rose Manske @MsManskeChi]

@TeacherKaizen @MTMS_at_NCTM Absolutely. It is great when you have an administration who understands this concept.

[Esther Rose Manske @MsManskeChi]

@MTMS_at_NCTM A1 Wait Time Wait Time Wait Time .... Giving Ss sometimes an uncomfortable amount of time to express themselves. It lets them know when I ask a question I value the time it takes to give a thoughtful response. #MTMSchat @MTMS_at_NCTM @NCTM

@alextvalencic #FathersDay Festivities. Everyone is excited that we moved back from #Texas. Expect to see me on twitter chats soon. :) Thank you for checking in!

What a great chat today #leadupchat! Teacher leadership is the only way we can take the "just" out of "I am "just" a teacher" and change that mindset. Teachers are professionals, and they can lead from their classrooms if their voices are valued! We are #bettertogether
