So many words that could be said... safe, accepted, respected, valued, and empowered are a few of my favorites.

Hey, #TeacherFriends: Fill in the blank! How should Ss feel at school? #JoyfulLeaders

[Larissa Bailey @PvELTech]

I’m already thinking about how great it will be to always have Ss’ voices connected to their work!! Having some fun trying out the new #flipgridar 🌟📣🌟 @Flipgrid #UIMedia19

[Taylor Rames @RamesTaylor]

Fun idea! Also, nothing wrong with introducing Ss to real, classic hits! 😉🎶🤘🏼

@spencerideas I actually do start each morning with a walk-in tune. 🤓 Students get 50 XP if they name the artist/50 if they name the title. My personal teacher tune is AC/DC: For Those About to Rock (We Salute You). 🤘🏻🤘🏻

Nice work @RamesTaylor @shanndebo @Tatum_Education for winning Best Overall list today in the Level III Listapalooza.

[Taylor Rames @RamesTaylor]

My team of seventh graders and I were able to take ⭐️ 1ST PLACE ⭐️ in the #chasingeinstein challenge! 🤗 Thank you to @MLCmath @hand2mind @Flipgrid @fctry @stickermule @AdobeSpark & @kevinsmithsd for all of these wonderful prizes I received for my future classroom! #dsumath 📚👍

Mrs. Howell & Mrs. Pell outdid themselves with this EXCITING math lesson on plotting coordinates using 2 LIFE-SIZE BATTLESHIP boards! One in each classroom #tlap #stem @DreamLakeApopka @burgessdave @lesliepell1 @jahowell62 @North_OCPS @OCPSnews

When I was teaching middle school ELA, I realized I wasn't really teaching English; I was teaching them how to be good humans. Great tips here from @edutopia about infusing #SEL into your classroom, regardless of your content area. SO important! #IDOESEL https://t.co/URV3kIIxMW

Resource of the Day: @Desmos This is one of the best tech tools for the math classroom. Today I introduced future K-8 math Ts to the calculator, the geometry tools, and the teaching activities. Here are a couple of my favorites:

@kevinsmithsd @cultofpedagogy Wonderful information and insight that helps teachers become the best that they can be!

#ChasingEinstein ends tomorrow @ 5 PM. Will Apple Pi hang on for the win? Will the Mathmagicians, Master Minds, Team Awesome, A Fraction Ahead, Puzzle Power, or The Blazing Einsteins catch them? @RamesTaylor @Ms_Martens_ @BaileyMoody15 @alexandra_dsu @BrenRaee @TaylerLogue

Teachers make important instructional decisions daily. Reflective teachers observe how those decisions impact student learning. #dsumath #chap11 @kevinsmithsd

[Taylor Rames @RamesTaylor]

“When students explain their solutions to problems, they reveal the reasoning, mathematical relationships, and tools they use to solve problems. They make their thinking available to others, and they become more aware of their own thinking...” @kevinsmithsd #dsumath #chap12

[Taylor Rames @RamesTaylor]

What a great idea! #education #comprehension

[Taylor Rames @RamesTaylor]

When choosing whose work to present in whole-class discussion, choose work that is accessible, that all students will understand, yet also work that allows for thinking of ways that may be more efficient. #dsumath #chap10 @kevinsmithsd

[Kevin Smith @kevinsmithsd]

Nice job @RamesTaylor leading Apple Pi to the top of the leaderboard. #chasingeinstein #dsumath https://t.co/3WhxRMDubS

[Taylor Rames @RamesTaylor]

One of the most important qualities a teacher can have is the ability to be empathetic toward others. Some students are experiencing the unimaginable. These students in particular need someone who will listen, understand, and support them. #dsu360 #SpringBreakROD

[Taylor Rames @RamesTaylor]

Think of questions to ask during lessons ahead of time. This will allow you to ask better questions! In addition, students will learn more because they are actively involved and thinking for themselves! 👍🧠 #dsumath #chap9 @kevinsmithsd

[Taylor Rames @RamesTaylor]

A6: I love the idea of allowing students to share out what they're proud of and what they've accomplished using technology! #SDedchat

[Taylor Rames @RamesTaylor]

A5: I think Remind would be a creative way to engage parents. Quick, easy, and accessible! #SDedchat
