Getting fired UP about some #phenomenal learning at the Georgia Science Teachers Association Annual Conference #GSTA2022. Let's start connecting with each other now. @GSTANews - via Whova event app https://t.co/1PfF1IsSrO

Looking forward to helping my friend ⁦@naturally_kathy⁩ share the #STEAM greatness ⁦⁦@westjacksonelem⁩ at Georgia Science Teachers Association Annual Conference. Come see us if you're attending the event! #GSTA2022 - via #Whova event app

When the kids you teach fall into the range for the most critical years for exec. function skill development and they’ve lived through a pandemic in the last 2 years of their lives... Another reason I am grateful to get to personalize learning! @jackson_connect #personalizeKSU

[Amy Tinnell @TheGeniusGym]

If you’re not following what’s happening @jackson_connect, you should! Unique program & beautiful kids. Teaching 5 different grades means having the joy of “celebrating learning” 5 different times throughout the week. I owe my full heart to their #genius spirits! 💜#SuccessatJCSS

[Amy Tinnell @TheGeniusGym]

@j6panus Me, too. 😃 🧩 Happy New Year!

#STEAM & #STEMteachers! Looking for a great example of data art to display investigative research findings? Here’s a great example! How do you inspire students to design and create their own style of data art? Share your examples with me! @STEMGeorgia @GaDOEScience @GaDOEMath

My Mum isn’t on the Twitter, but she’s knitted a line everyday in 2021 to represent the temperature of day.
I think it’s pretty amazing.

Sharing a creative work of art from one of my 3rd grade students @jackson_connect. She was inspired to create by the @NASA_Langley #DrawnToExplore art contest. Although it cannot be entered (not an image), I think it is #genius! @JCSchoolSystem #STEAM

[Amy Tinnell @TheGeniusGym]

@CBS46 weather report about La Niña after the scientific report about @NASAWebb was EVERYTHING!! @Ella__Dorsey you made my day...someone equally excited and animated about science is hard to find. A #genius example of #womeninSTEM! Come inspire my girls @jackson_connect! ✌🏻💙🛰⛈

[Amy Tinnell @TheGeniusGym]

Not every year do you get to wake up to celebrate God’s greatest gift AND watch a team of #genius scientists launch a rocket with a telescope that will help us better understand His amazing universe. This believing, science teacher can’t wait to #UnfoldTheUniverse! #Christmas2021

[Amy Tinnell @TheGeniusGym]

Perfect timing for the perfect tips! No time like the present to start something I’ve always wanted to do... highlight and share the #genius I witness in my classroom & from my colleagues daily. #winterbreakgoals #geniusgymchats #successatjcss

[Amy Tinnell @TheGeniusGym]

One joy of teaching middle school earth science @jackson_connect is that I get to geek out on stuff like this & act as though my obsession is 💯% normal. Prayers for a successful launch. @nasa, this teacher can’t wait to see what we get to learn because of your #genius!🤓🚀🛰

[NASA @NASA]

Congratulations to my son, M. M. Saxophone Performance 💙 Go chase your dreams, kid! ✌🏻💙🎷 #UWG

[Amy Tinnell @TheGeniusGym]

MAP testing @jackson_connect today. #growthmindset means shifting our perspective about “not knowing” an answer. I am so proud of these students and the shifts they are making to become LEARNERS and not just “task finishers”. @JCSchoolSystem #disruptivethink #geniusgymlearning

[Amy Tinnell @TheGeniusGym]

Seeking solid tech resources for personalized learning & came across https://t.co/qGE0gmpGSS Creating comprehensive learner profiles can be a challenge of PL. Anyone have any experience with this or any other resource for this purpose? #PersonalizeKSU #M4Resource

[Amy Tinnell @TheGeniusGym]

@jackson_connect choice & voice in path, pace, & product are highly valued. Scaffolding menus for virtual/blended learners takes time but is so worth it! #geniusgymlearning @JCSchoolSystem #disruptivethink

[Amy Tinnell @TheGeniusGym]

LOVE! Not only is this quite a shift in instructional practice for teachers, but there’s a huge shift for the learners as well. Students @jackson_connect are shifting their philosophy of learning, too #growthmindset #PersonalizeKSU @JCSchoolSystem

A teacher critically examined 3 pervasive traditional grading practices.

Creating a tableau to show what you know in a program that is virtual 90% of the time too hard? Overcoming barriers to #redesignschool is how we roll @jackson_connect. We investigated the art form, imagined ideas, collaborated virtually & performed in person! @STEMGeorgia ✌🏻💜🎭

[Amy Tinnell @TheGeniusGym]

Sharing great resource from @reDesignLLC that I plan to explore as a way to support #PersonalizedLearning and #STEAM practices. https://t.co/DR6X3OB5IC
@STEMGeorgia teachers, check out the performance tasks: math, ELA, Engineering Design and more. #PersonalizeKSU @jackson_connect
