No reason this shouldn’t be in every classroom. Big believer in this one. Learning is possible. Breaking down concepts is essential though. #SC356 @mfrazier313

More than anything else, I hope our own three children have learned values in our home. I think this is true in school as well.

I hope our students learn the value of integrity, compassion, hard work, curiosity, kindness, and human potential.

I can think of very little that teachers do, that is more important… than communicating to students that they matter.

Something I’ve noticed about good teachers… is that they want to be better teachers.

This in the neat booksnap I was able to create using Snapchat and the word of truth. @TaraMartinEDU #SC356
It is a great resource to use to connect with learners today. Create school accounts and check their stories for main ideas, rising action, climax, etc! @mfrazier313

Have you ever wanted your students to listen with their whole body? I learned this year how to finally sing with my whole body. Interesting concept. #SC356 @mfrazier313

Teachers have long been using expectation charts in class. At Central Elementary this is true too. #SC356 @mfrazier313

Have a student you're struggling with & you're out of ideas?

Try the 'two-by-ten' strategy:

For two minutes each day, 10 days in a row, have a personal conversation with the #student about anything the student is interested in, but NO school or behavior.

If a Principal warns you against something or to stop your actions in a certain way it is best to listen and try to apply. Communication systems are critical when problems arise. #SC356 @mfrazier313

Is positivity enough? In addition to making 70% of your comments in classroom positive ones, aim for specificity. That will mean more to students and show you care more on a personal level. #SC356 @mfrazier313

Any suggestions for easily found kids book which a simple art activity can be motivated or brought from? All input welcome. Thanks.

When is it okay to use your size to an advantage in school? When a student with Conduct Disorder becomes violent might be the case. Teachers who are shorter and petite will have to be creative in managing those situations. #SC356 @mfrazier313

Ever wonder why teachers give students mints before assessment time? Well, it helps them retain knowledge and so does testing in the same spot they’ve sat in during all school year. #SC356 @mfrazier313

So proud of him.

So agree! Stay humble. No one has it all under control.

Looking for good Kid’s books that rhyme. Look no further than @KylahComley3 recommended book “Duck in the Truck.” Super fun read for K-3. #getinandcompete #SC356 @mfrazier313

Learning some awesome new ways to use google classroom. What an excellent resource! Thank you @mfrazier313 and @GoogleForEdu for this awesome tool! Will definitely be using this in my classroom! #SC356 #GoogleClassroom

[Alice Keeler @alicekeeler]

I love using #googleSlides! When students do their work on Slides I can add extra slides to add feedback (and of course throw in a bitmoji) #googleEDU

Feeling Stressed: according to Dawn Eliserio research is showing that 18-26 is the age group under the most stress in the field of education. @mfrazier313 #SCED356
