I am proud of the teachers who are taking chances in their classrooms to increase communication, collaboration, and critical thinking with their students! Partnering with you is my favorite!

I am excited to join my Prince Edward science colleagues this week after our professional learning session on Friday. We had a great time exploring ways to engage their students in science and engineering practices and enhancing student engagement. See you on Wednesday!

A great start to our partnership with Richmond Public Schools science leaders - SEP-Driven Lesson Design for Sensemaking kicked off last week!
The emphasis was on moving from activity completion to student sensemaking using evidence! An amazing day learning together!

Primary sources are so important to developing #HistoricalThinking! No better way to draw students in than to tap into their natural curiosity!

Curiosity is Universal: 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲 & 𝗪𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿
Let's model how Reasoning Routines can transform thinking in Social Studies!

Why We Love It: Low Floor, High Ceiling: Every student can participate and contribute an observation, building confidence and community.

Reasoning routines aren't just for math or science teachers, they are for everyone! Start class with a #studentcentered approach!
#ELA teachers check out @CTLGConsulting for increasing #thinking!

CTLG is changing the story and today we’re highlighting ELA.
Convince Me! is a student-centered routine that turns passive consumers into critical investigators. It requires students to separate facts and opinions.

Kicking off #CTEMonth2025 with a reminder that CTE opens doors for every student! I’ve seen the impact—hands-on skills build confidence, spark passions, and prepare students for whatever path they choose! #CTEIsForEveryone #FutureReady @CTLGConsulting

[William J. Crowder, Jr., Ph.D., Ed.D. @VaEducatorWJC]

As we kick off #CTEMonth2025, I feel like this sticker says it all! CTE truly is for everyone…all students deserve the opportunity to learn a hands on skill, as it will better prepare them for their future, whether that means to be enrolled, enlisted, and/or employed. @CTLGConsulting

[Eric Rhoades @Rhoades4Science]

@JenniferRedfea4 Congratulations Jennifer! NCSTA is better already for having another dedicated STEM leader on their Board!

[Eric Rhoades @Rhoades4Science]

@WickerSci @HenricoScience It’s exciting to see young scientists exploring and making sense of science. I’m sure their curious minds were active! You’re awesome! @HenricoScience
