@mlyf40 @cajunspice79 @amandabethallen If that’s the case @mlyf40, I’ll be waiting for my chocolate-iced, Bavarian cream filled bismarck from @LaMarsDonuts tomorrow.

@cajunspice79 One can only hope!

Next Monday, December 21 – I will be doing a free, 30-min workshop on ratios & proportional reasoning for grade 4-8 teachers. Interested? Register here: https://t.co/x0VJQDSYYO

I appreciate so much all the hard work teachers put in year after year after year. Thank you!!

[Brandyn Harmon @bharmonGVR5]

@n8than_thomas nailed this one! Check on your teacher friends. #thestruggleisreal

[Brandyn Harmon @bharmonGVR5]

@aharrison_teach It’s all in the angles! We both need to work on our skinny arm pose. 😂 Maybe @amandabethallen can help us.

[Brandyn Harmon @bharmonGVR5]

It’s always a pleasure learning new tech tips from @aharrison_teach to engage our learners! Today focused on utilizing @googlejamboard and https://t.co/UsW16T3ay5 during virtual learning sessions. #NMSTeach #GVEaglePD

The Grain Valley @McDonalds knocked it out of the park today. Honored the free teacher breakfast by providing for our entire NMS staff! Drive thru was wrapped around the building, and they had our large order ready to go at 7am! #imlovinit #NMSTeach

@amandabethallen kicking off a new year of a “new normal” at Grain Valley North Middle School! Excited to start this new journey alongside such an inspiring leader. #GVEaglePD #NMSTeach #NMSEagles #TogetherWeRise

[Grain Valley Schools @GV_Schools]

720 students are joining us for in person K-12 summer school this month! It has been a long 3 1/2 months without these personal student to teacher connections, so it is great to experience something that feels a little “normal.”

@GoogleForEdu Thanks, @GoogleForEdu I will pass the information along.

@kylepace can you help us out with this?

[Brandyn Harmon @bharmonGVR5]

@GoogleForEdu I’d really love to see the faces of each student/staff member on the screen when we utilize Meet for our meetings during our distance learning that is our new reality. Any chance you can make that happen instead of just the side bar?

[Brandyn Harmon @bharmonGVR5]

Speaking the truth: The technology is just a tool. If the task isn't engaging, the students engage in the technology instead. @JohnAntonetti

When we are thinking deeply, we don't want feedback, we want validation! @JohnAntonetti #showmepd20 #GVEaglePD

If we pretend differences don’t exist or say things like, “I don’t see color,” we are in the way! #deepequity #ShowMePD20

[Brandi Gump @gump_brandi]

Did you know that greeting each student at the door and calling them by name can increase engagement by 20% and decrease negative behaviors by 9%? Morning greetings are essential! #HackingSchoolDiscipline #ShowMePD20 #MEGVPBIS

"All behavior is a form of communication." What are our students saying to us? #HackingSchoolDiscipline #showmepd20 #GVEaglePD

[Brandyn Harmon @bharmonGVR5]

Restorative practices are about relationships - feeding them, nourishing them, and repairing them. We can't just do an ice breaker on the first day and think that's enough. #showmepd20 #HackingSchoolDiscipline #GVEaglePD

[Brandyn Harmon @bharmonGVR5]

3 best parts of a student's school day: 1)Lunch, 2)Homeroom, 3)Recess/Electives. What do they have in common? Time to build relationships! #showmepd20 #HackingSchoolDiscipline #GVEaglePD

[Brandyn Harmon @bharmonGVR5]

In education, we offer voice and choice in academics, but often forget to offer the same in behavior. #showmepd20 #HackingSchoolDiscipline #GVEaglePD
