Effective teachers don't focus so much on rules, but more on relationships, routines, & expectations. If you focus mainly on rules, you will spend most of the year enforcing them. But if you focus on relationships, routines, & expectations, you rarely have to defer back to rules.

It doesn’t take much to write a school strategic plan. Just keep saying the same thing.

Deficiency: We are not meeting the needs of students
Need: We need to meet the needs of students
Goal: Meet the needs of students.
Course of Action: We will meet the needs of students

Classroom management is about more than setting expectations and demanding students perform. You can expect me to do a somersault all you want… I’m still going to let you down.

Teachers: when a lesson goes wrong, try not to think of it as “they couldn’t even do xyz” but rather “how can I help them do xyz?”, you are their teacher after all. #abed #newteachers #edchat #edutwitter #teachertwitter #mathchat #sschat

Students need to be explicitly taught the skills they need to do high quality work that reflects their learning on a daily basis. #abed #edchat #classroommanagement #bced #teachertwitter

[Kites in Classroooms @classroomkites]

When students rush through their work they miss chance for deep learning, to adapt and self-correct, and make mistakes. But what to do about it? #engagedlearning #studentengagement #edchat #teachertwitter #abed #bced

School year winding down? Running out of materials or ideas? Here's some great stem activities that only need rock, paper, scissors... and maybe a little bit of tape!
