Let’s pretend I didn’t write the word shoes twice...Good thing I don’t teach English...

I want to shout out ⁦@IC_Clara⁩ for staying late on the Friday before Spring break to brush up on her conic section skills! We are so blessed to have such a dedicated IC who cares about walking a mile in the shoes of her Precalculus teachers shoes!!! #CHSHome

Ian, if your not careful, your @kennyloggins #dadjokes are likely to enter the #dangerzone

[Ian VanderSchee @ivschee]

#DadJokeOfTheDay I changed all of my passwords to Kenny. Now I have Kenny Loggins.

Hey @coachsprings and @CoppellHigh!
#pinkwednesdays anyone? #CHSHome

[John Watkins @WatkinsCHS]

This happened! Thank you @mccrayk619 and @rachellephill for creating a safe place for people to take risks. Thanks @Coppellisd for an amazing day of PL to embrace opportunities we wouldn’t normally get to experience on a typical professional learning day #CHSHome

[John Watkins @WatkinsCHS]

A3: When in doubt, overcommunicate. Keep your LMS/website up to date, post all test dates and deadlines. Don’t be afraid to send good parents emails #CelebratED #CHSHome

[John Watkins @WatkinsCHS]

A2: Remember techonology is a tool. Blend old school with new school to improve learning experiences and provide immediate feedback. Some of my favorites include quizizz, Flipgrid, goformative, and kahoot. Schoology helps us keep it all organized. #CelebratED #CHSHome

[John Watkins @WatkinsCHS]

A1: don’t reinvent the wheel...make it better. Start with what you did last year and improve it! #CelebratED #CHSHome

[John Watkins @WatkinsCHS]

A1: Hey guys! John Watkins from Coppell High school here. I teach Precalculus and Geometry and specialize in corny jokes. My favorite back to school@activity is meeting parents and giving them a feel for what happens in my classroom. #CelebratED #CHSHome

[John Watkins @WatkinsCHS]

@ivschee @janleebourg So thankful for you both! #CHSHome
