Yes! This is a great description of student centered. Often activities described as student centered are just well disguised teacher led. It shouldn’t feel like the teacher has a hidden secret that students need to hear from them to reveal the learning. #LDT620

“My whole philosophy changed because UBD is kid-centered. I’m not the focus of the room. If I did my job, the kids are teaching themselves.”

—High School English Teacher Mike Cassell on how Understanding By Design shifted his teaching style

Some good conversations happening in the comments. Worth a read

No child deserves a 0 on a 100 pt grading scale.

Every day as educators we make decisions to uphold an inequitable educational system or dismantle an inequitable educational system.

Excited to have supplies for interactive notebooks this year!! Enough for a supply caddy at each student group and composition notebooks for each student! Thanks @DonorsChoose @EmCollective two high school friends and an anonymous donor for the donation!!

@JohnGerads I like that they grouped a teacher with athlete... pretty much the same job.

Ope just gonna scooch right past ya...to be *THIRD* in the nation.

Good thing to remember especially with break coming up

[gerry brooks @gerrybrooksprin]

I wanted to cut a student off today from telling a story that had nothing to do with my lesson because we were strapped for time. Then I remembered I might be the only one listening to him today, so I let him keep going. It was a bigger blessing to me than it was to him!

PSA: Stop saying that you teach ‘the low kids.’ There are no low kids. Maybe low support, maybe low learning environments, maybe low curriculum and maybe even low teaching. But, there. Are. No. Low. Kids.

If a student is not fully engaged virtually, it is probably NOT the teacher's fault.

And...

If a student is not fully engaged virtually, it is probably NOT the student's fault.

And...

If a student is not fully engaged virtually,it is probably NOT the student's family's fault.

This is an awesome science lesson!

While I may be the first woman in this office, I will not be the last—because every little girl watching tonight sees that this is a country of possibilities.

I love doing this in my classroom but a great modification for distance learning. Maybe use breakout rooms in Google for students to collaborate while doing this and screenshots of jamboard. #SMU622

[Ella Hereth @MsHereth]

I created a google slides question stack where students had to rearrange the cards AND upload photos of their work! It went so well. We really needed a practice day! https://t.co/n0Vo9UrziO #MTBoS thanks @JennSWhite for the idea.

[Elise Morell @ejmorell]

Love this site! Excited to see it go from a blog to its own domain. #SMU622

[Sarah Carter @mathequalslove]

My new website is LIVE! I switched from Blogger to Wordpress and finally bought my own domain name. I hope you enjoy visiting https://t.co/8JreGD200v. Hopefully the new navigation menu will make finding stuff much faster and easier! #mtbos #iteachmath

[Elise Morell @ejmorell]

Good self reflection here. Maybe a good thing to incorporate and revamp with station teaching. It’s hard to get honest good reflections from all learners. #SMU622

Our sisterhood is resilient.

[Elise Morell @ejmorell]

@AVIDOpenAccess Will do! It’s been a lot of trial and error this year. Looking to switch things up next unit!

[Elise Morell @ejmorell]

Looking into planning trimester 2. Maybe we can do some of these rotations for exponents 🤔 it would be a good way to spend some face to face time with kids and have independent work time and collaboration #SMU622

Serving NY-14 and fighting for working class families in Congress has been the greatest honor, privilege, & responsibility of my life.

Thank you to the Bronx & Queens for re-electing me to the House despite the millions spent against us, & trusting me to represent you once more.
