Q1: setting and reinforcing expectations early. let students know you are on their side, but that you expect the very best from them #mschat

[Education in Fourth @ed_fourth]

Q2: our school uses a PBIS system. students get to buy prizes from the counselor and privileges in the classroom buy being respectful, responsible, and ready to learn #mschat

[Education in Fourth @ed_fourth]

A3: whenever kids ask me if something is graded, I focus them on the learning - usually with an answer like "I want to see how well you understand <insert standard here>. Do your best to show me you understand." #mschat

@MissDo2021 I heard one of my kids talking about it and promptly walked away!!

[Education in Fourth @ed_fourth]

@MissDo2021 Sorry to interrupt your run!! 😂

[Education in Fourth @ed_fourth]

Great visual to remind students to utilize technology to its full capacity! Windows shortcuts version in the thread as well!

My principal's supervisor came around and sat in on my class to observe. I was sweating bullets the whole time but my kids did so well! #educ502

[Education in Fourth @ed_fourth]

@Schnabel4th Oh me for sure. I can get through two usually. My small group time is too important to give up just to fit in another mini lesson!

Ummm I had no idea Canva made graphic organizer templates?? My kids are about to see a big upgrade!! #educ502

I had a dream last night where I was having a post-observation with my principal who asked if I still wanted to be a teacher. I was so lost because I honestly didn't know. Teaching is my passion but what do you do when you're burned out by what you love? 😕 #educ502

Are you having dream and nightmares about work? Stop ignoring them. Your mind is trying to tell you something. Wonderful column from ⁦@RachelFeintzeig⁩ https://t.co/lO8nG9cjVU

Yes there are two sides to every story, but both sides are not right all of the time. #educ502

I think this article needs to be examined with a critical eye. It may be uncomfortable to talk politics, but the ideas spouted by some politicians are outright harmful, and should be addressed as such if they are brought up in the classroom.

The rationale for remaining neutral in the classroom is twofold: "to avoid influencing the minds of our students, and to provide an environment for objective discussion and debate."

Getting ready to bring @PlayBlooket into my classroom for the first time. I'm nervous because I know as soon as I bring it in, that's the only thing they'll want to do! 🤣 #educ502

[Education in Fourth @ed_fourth]

Love this and want to know more! #educ502

[edutopia @edutopia]

This simple strategy provides a pathway to participation—for *all* kids.

[Education in Fourth @ed_fourth]

@SpEdRocksSchool So important! We cannot self care our way out of massive systemic failings 😕

A new math game you say? 👀 #educ502

[99math @99mathgame]

Moving beyond pizza & pie, fractions are one of those pain points kids carry around until their adults tweeting (ahem). Giving kids a fun, exciting place to build & master challenging skills is what we're about.

What a handy visual for students to remind students the purpose of reading! #educ502

[Amy Doan @MrsDoan15]

I remake this with my Ss every year. We read picture books and discuss strategies (and then try to apply them) before moving on to novels. Ss co-create, so it’s a little different each time. Such a great visual reminder on the wall! @SirIsaacBrockPS

[Education in Fourth @ed_fourth]

Introduced my emergent readers to @laliloapp today. They loved the simplicity and direct feedback they got on it. Students kept asking if they could use the program more tomorrow! #educ502

[Education in Fourth @ed_fourth]

Looks like a fun way to practice multiplication facts! #educ502

[Jennifer Rakestraw @JenniferRakest5]

We tried a multiplication game I saw online. My class loved it! Draw a clock and put a factor in the middle. The class competes in teams to put the products around the outside edge. #multiplicationgames
