How can we create thoughtful opportunities for belonging if we feel broken ourselves? We need to take care of ourselves so we can care for others. #ksdtalk2021 @KSDTeachLearn

If we are more mindful about stating our intent, we can/will avoid a lot of misunderstandings.

Starting the day off right with Sherry Prindle. Learning to zoom out instead of magnifying is important. The power of perspective makes all the difference. #ksdtalk2021 @KSDTeachLearn

Mirrors, windows, and sliding glass doors… so critical for students to see themselves and others in the texts they read and the encounters they have. #ksdtalk2021 @KSDTeachLearn @k_shelton

Naraine Balayan and Jennifer Antrobus are knocking it out of the park! Great information and resources regarding the new WIDA standards. #KSDTALK2021

Let's flood our classrooms, buildings and system with practices that that promote and honor dignity.

"The pain of social rejection is harder to see, therefore harder to respond to." How can we see our students and give them a sense of belonging? It's a critical need that we must commit to.

My goal for today is to learn more about the new WIDA standardsso I can better support teachers in supporting our MLE students. #ksdtalk2021
