Play games, have fun, build a community of learners. We are all in this together!!

[Tom Spall 🍏 #EDU @Tommyspall]

Do not start the first week of school with worksheets, test prep, ditto sheets, or any of that crap.

Talk to your kids about their summer, build relationships, and learn about their families.

Take interest in them and they will reciprocate ten-fold. #reallife #edchat #edtech

[Michelle B. Wooten @bonitagringuita]

@mradamwelcome It makes me sad to even see this. And it is the 2nd time this topic has come up in 2 days. We should be excited for each other. We should be growing together. When one triumphs, don't we all get just a little better? #buildabetterworld

I’ve worked w a LOT of kids in my past educational work.

The ones who “act up” almost always have issues at home or otherwise.

Esp when it comes to elementary students, suspension + detention can make things worse.

What kids need is healing tools+policy that helps families ⬇️

[Michelle B. Wooten @bonitagringuita]

Retrieval practice! We can also teach kids to do this for themselves using problems worked in class.

[Alice Keeler @alicekeeler]

"Instead of assigning homework to give students practice with course material, give mini-quizzes at the start of each class that ask 3-5 questions about the prior day’s learning. "
