Teaching is saying “Please listen! I’m only going to say the directions once,” then repeat the directions over and over for 30 years until you finally retire.
.@MiamiSup: “We ought to pay less attention to the loud voices that are often disconnected from reason and focus our attention on students, teachers, and healthy, protective environments.”
Instead of continually hearing:
“This is not America”
Let’s start hearing:
“This is not what we want America to be”.
And then let’s do things to help make it better. 💛
Captain Luke Gregory is no stranger to facing difficulties. Luke has had a "no excuse" mindset since his first year on the team. Not only is Luke having his best year yet, but he is also a leader outside of running. Read about Luke in the Daily Herald: https://t.co/gVQrThm6X1
I have a friendly reminder for all those folks yelling, shouting, and posting your disagreement and disdain for your school's return to learn plans. Teachers are not calling the shots. They are rolling with the punches and making it work the best they can for the kids.
I thought hybrid meant that students learn both online and in person, not that the teacher will teach students online and in person at the same time every day.
This Isn't What We Meant by Hybrid Learning https://t.co/LY3ucUHS2I via @WeAreTeachers
@Mcoaty It depends on the day. Sometimes, if we’re sharing something quick, I can call on everyone in class. If we’re sharing more in depth thoughts, I might call on 7-10, and then open the floor to volunteers. Then I promise to call on them the next class.
@Mcoaty I have notecards with each kid’s name on it and rotate through the stack to hear all voicd. I always have them prepare something beforehand like I will say, “look for 3 quotes you can share. I will randomly call on everyone at least once to share.”
