Math at Murphy! 3rd graders in Amy McCarthy’s class taking notice of what they could learn from this graph AND 5th graders in Kristin Natwick’s class thinking about ordering fractions between 0 and 1. #murphybulldogs #learnbps

There is no mastery without feedback. But it’s hard.

This checklist has really helped me over the years.

My mantra for receiving feedback: Be brave. Listen. You can take what’s helpful and leave the rest.

My mantra for giving feedback: Clear is kind. Unclear is unkind.

BPS TLAers @mrsnikkischaff and @JanaDetwiler nailed it with their conference workshop focused on soft starts and research/ideas from the book The Curious Classroom. #learnbps

[Tanna Kincaid @tanna_kincaid]

BPS TLAers @kristiek4175 and @BrittanyKuester brilliantly modeled active learning by getting their conference session participants involved in some STEAM experiences for students and parents. #learnbps

[Tanna Kincaid @tanna_kincaid]

BPS TLAers @DagmanKristi and @ranidayz26 brought home to their conference participants the message and strategies for building resilience by learning how to "flip the switch" by using a negative situation to make a positive choice. #learnbps

[Tanna Kincaid @tanna_kincaid]

Ta Da... its BPS TLAers @hellomsmorrow and @hellomrsklein modeling the power of morning meeting and strategies to start the day off with positivity that pays forward. #learnbps @sarah_jordan89

[Tanna Kincaid @tanna_kincaid]

How do you elicit deeper thinking with students and in your own work? BPS TLAers @InnovatorPat @PamBakerND and @melissam_haas explore how we come to know what to do when we don't know what to do. #learnbps @AliviaWamboldt

[Tanna Kincaid @tanna_kincaid]

The anticipation and focus in this room was thick. BPS TLAers @elsiejsheldon @Elizabe11079530 and @flinngirl challenged the group with math thinking that kept them thinking. #learnbps

[Melissa Hurt @flinngirl]

Greatness by choice! #NDTLA19 @CorySteiner10 @hellomrsklein @hellomsmorrow @PamBakerND @InnovatorPat @MockLindsay @ArleneWolf16 @Elizabe11079530 @sheldon_elsie @DagmanKristi @ranidayz26 @JanaDetwiler @mrsnikkischaff @wordnerd58 @Mr_StPeter @BrittanyKuester @melissam_haas
