Administrators build relationships with their teachers, the same way teachers do with their students.  They talk to them; they invest time in them; they respect them; they value them; they support them.  It doesn’t have to be complicated… but it needs to be a priority.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

Principals should spend far more energy catching their teachers doing the right thing than doing the wrong thing.

@DrP_Principal I can smell it now!

Did you look at who sponsored this study?

@TeachMrReed @sarahmdarnell In Bailey, CO, the perpetrator slipped past multiple cameras wearing a hoodie and a ball cap. That’s why many schools want everyone to wear clothing that leaves the face fully visible to the cameras. Exceptions are typically given for medical reasons and religious reasons.

Only until we learn how to use Ai to guide writers. I see opportunities in using it to teach structure, audience, purpose, and context.

Alas, more in-class essays (on account of ChatGPT) will mean less time for instruction and discussion.

BREAKING: In a brazen display of censorship, Elon Musk’s Twitter suspiciously removes #Tribel from Twitter’s trending feed just as it was approaching the number one trending due to our breaking news tweet(pinned to the top of our feed) a few hours ago that went viral reporting on new Twitter alternative https://t.co/w3Mt5NkbM6 banning Tucker Carlson from its fast growing social network.

We can’t let Musk get away with this. He already banned Tribel’s Twitter account last week — and now he is manipulating Twitter in order to bury Tribel and defend his buddy Tucker Carlson.

Please RT and smash the ❤️ to expose Elon Musk — and download Tribel’s new app by clicking on this link before Musk bans it as well: https://t.co/HnJzSKj4Hp

Everyone must stand up and speak out against antisemitism. Silence is not an option. The bigger the platform for the antisemitic speech, the more forcefully it must be condemned.

Just because some teachers would rather stay in the classroom than go into administration doesn’t mean they aren’t leaders. Many have amazing talents which can benefit a school by placing them in situations to use those talents. Honor their choice, dedication, & professionalism.

Teachers,

RT this if it is impossible for you get your grading, planning, parent/guardian outreach and all other additional requirements (on top teaching) completed during your contractual hours.

Just curious.

@TheWeirdTeacher In my bldg it’s mostly parents of young kids or folks with fragile family members.

[Diane Patterson @PattersonDiane]

Doing this. Great idea!

[Tyler Rablin @Mr_Rablin]

A little thing making a big difference for me right now is that I have been putting this question at the beginning of assignments:

"What's a piece of feedback you've received that you should keep in mind as you start this?"

It helps bridge the gap between feedback and growth.

What I hope for all of us when things go wrong.
