all scholars should have opportunities to learn from the feedback of their assessments @john_hattie @jtalmarode #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

we’re ensuring that scholars don’t learn vocabulary without context. vocabulary is conceptual, so when scholars learn how words connect, their vocabulary becomes stronger @DFISHERSDSU @NancyFrey #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

listening comprehension sets the ceiling for reading comprehension. our lessons have to have regular, daily oral practice for our scholars to grow @DFISHERSDSU @NancyFrey #AVL2023

belonging is not a luxury; it is a basic human need that must be met for students to thrive academically and emotionally @Doc_Nik307 @learnersquared #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

humanity is NOT up for debate @learnersquared @Doc_Nik307 #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

all scholars CAN have acceleration. all scholars deserve to have that opportunity @Doc_Nik307 @learnersquared #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

discipline is about building rich and rigorous curriculum. punishment is about teaching to the test. we need to include discipline and reimagine punishment in our schools @MilnerHRich #theracecard #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

frontline leadership is about what we do to make the world a better place. it’s about who we are and what we do. when we see something unjust or inequitable, i’m going to stand up and speak up, in every aspect of our lives @MilnerHRich #theracecard #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

all of us are capable of making students feel invited and that they have a sense of belonging @NancyFrey @DFISHERSDSU @domsmithRP #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

if we don’t enjoy what we’re doing, we can’t expect the kids to @eckertjon #JustTeaching #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

there is great joy to be found in the work we do every day as an educator, but we lose sight of that. so how do we find it again? @eckertjon #JustTeaching #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

we need to stop saying “just a teacher.” teaching is the profession that leads to all others #JustTeaching @eckertjon #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

we need to teach each student for who they are meant to be @eckertjon #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

evaluative thinking is not just thinking critically. it’s thinking purposefully, understanding what’s actually going on using your knowledge, memories, and skills. it is with the intention to act and have an impact, analysing as you go @janet_clinton #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

evaluative thinking is being deliberate @janet_clinton @jtalmarode #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

it is our job as educators to teach scholars the skills, knowledge, and tools to accept others. to see the world through different lenses, that their actions have the power to lift up or overpower, & to develop perseverance and the value working with others @john_hattie #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

the mindframes are not an opportunity to talk about diversity and belonging - it’s an opportunity for us to BE about it @learnersquared #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

equity is about humanity. equity is us seeking what others need. equity is about fairness and consideration. @learnersquared @CorwinPress #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

how are you going to be intentionally inviting to scholars, teachers, the community, and family members? how do we affirm using micro-affirmations every day to communicate that we support others in any way we can? @Doc_Nik307 @CorwinPress #AVL2023

[Nancy Shi @classofshi]

what are the barriers for our scholars from showing up in the fullness of who they are? @Doc_Nik307 @CorwinPress #AVL2023
