My brilliant and creative coworker, @Mrs_CohenNBJH decorates the windows of our 6th grade hallway. She fills this space with powerful daily affirmations for students and teachers. What are some words of affirmation that have made a difference for you? #28Empowers#RLR593
So proud of my friend, Stephanie! She made the hard decision and moved from her role in admin to be back in the classroom. Give her a follow, and hear all she shares about life, health, and being an educator. #RLR593
Finally getting back to blogging and sharing weekly some of what Iโve learned and reflected on moving from administration back to the classroom. This week is all about approaching each other with empathy.

No matter how many copies I add to my library, Small Spaces by Katherine Arden is one I cannot keep in stock! What are some of the titles that fly off your shelves? #RLR593

How do you include culturally responsive pedagogy in your practice?
These ideas from educator @ValentinaESL won't take a ton of time โ but they do go a long way in making sure all Ss feel seen & heard!

Steve Gardiner is an established expert on Sustained Silent Reading (SSR). Encouraging his studentsโ love of reading was an effort to extend his curious nature to themโan effort that, after 4 decades in the classroom, paid off. (2019) #education#reading https://t.co/WRBf0R3IM2
Student's don't need superior artistic talent to draw as they learn. Teachers can model ways for students to demonstrate their learning, and use the results to assess content knowledge.

Thank you Mrs. Susmel for taking the time to come to NBJH and talk to 6th graders all about chocolate. We learned so much from your presentation!#fairtrade#TheChocolateCollection#Savagebros.co https://t.co/o8rp1lKicj
One of our classroom jobs is to be The Wrapper. At the end of each class, it is this studentโs responsibility to summarize what we learned that day. Today in 3/4 LA, The Wrapper wrapped up class with a creative rapโฆ https://t.co/y2AtCwR30Z
Q2: In the coming year, I plan to use Seesaw more frequently as a platform to help students practice their digital communication skills. Having students comment on the work of their peers and build on ideas is also a positive way to use technology in the classroom. #innovate28
Q2: What types of experiences can you facilitate in your classroom so students can practice their digital communication skills? @CommonSenseEd#innovate28
@RonitShapiro@CommonSenseEd A1: With the use of technology in the classroom, the devices are always right at our fingertips. How do you not do a quick email check or a text reply? I can model balance by saving the personal use of the devices for times when students are not in the room.
We incorporate movement on these long testing days. Students create letters out of objects around the room to spell a word that describes our main characterโs personality.โฆ https://t.co/WgH1hBx24j
Students continue to develop their argumentative writing pieces in stations such as building to depth with LEGOS and hopscotching with transitions. https://t.co/JoM3ZBsuBz
