@JJuravich @OlentangySD I think I recognize this student's style! Love it!

Memorization is not in the top ten skills needed in 2020.

If school is about preparing students for the future, we need to shift our focus.

We tried @alicekeeler's method of turning a Google Spreadsheet into a Pixel Art Planner. Each value was assigned a color. Ss customized their pallets by adding # values & colors in Conditional Formatting. Hey @fuglefun. Is there a way to animate their pixel art?

Yes, she absolutely nailed it! “My” districts have been using FUNNY NUMBERS since I started almost 20 years ago. I encourage them to consider using nicknames & funny numbers & to stop trading base 10 blocks & drawing pictures of them! #commonsensewins

There is no badge for being the busiest, but there is wisdom in appreciating the present, spending quality time w/ loved ones, & taking care of yourself.

There is power in being in the present moment. Just being. And seeing. And listening. And reflecting. #pd4uandme

@brittanyahege @WithMissFast Me too! I learned so much from that session, so many ideas resonated with me!

"There is a lack of balance in students' exposure to both types of division. Over time this may cause misconceptions about division." #vms19 @brittanyahege Thank you!!

“... students who believed that their environments, particularly their teachers, supported their #autonomy and internal sense of motivation had increased academic self-#efficacy—and performed better in school.”

#ThoughtForTheDay Underperformance by employees is a big issue, but failing to address the underperformance is an even bigger issue. When we ignore or avoid we allow mediocrity to become the standard. #Culturize #NPC19

[Amy Smith @SmithereensOLSD]

Quarterly goals in my classroom! So excited to do this! Thanks!

[Jake Miller @JakeMillerEdu]

Also a great idea to use on desks in classrooms or lockers in hallways to foster a culture of “we all have goals” and “we all have a #growthmindset!” #FlipgridFever

[Amy Smith @SmithereensOLSD]

@alicekeeler Thank you!
