Checkout our 6th grade Math students from @FISD_NelsonMS using Ozobots to validate their answers. Students collaborated together to add, subtract, multiply, and divide integers fluently. #FutureReady w/ innovation @FISD_TnL @FISDSecmath #WeAreOne

Playing Scrabble in Math? Checkout Nelson MS students solving Linear Equations and using their answers to put letters in the scrabble board. Students were collaborating and communicating with each other to reach a common goal. @FISDSecmath @mr_n_casas @HuberMargie @FISD_NelsonMS

Take a few moments each day to remind yourself of your original feelings for the teaching profession. Make a commitment to yourself to revive your zest for teaching.

[Robert J. Marzano @robertjmarzano]

Establish behaviors in the classroom that ensure all students are treated fairly and equitably. You can build choice into this process. Specifically, at the beginning of the school year, students can design the standards for the behaviors that are expected in their classroom.

The best schools don't focus all their energy on intervention programs; instead, they focus on strong tier 1 instruction to limit the need of intervention programs. #edchat #education

“Instructional leadership” is not about improving teachers... it is about creating the conditions where teachers can improve themselves.

Things that warm your heart visiting Nelson MS on a chilly spring morning: math teacher, Mrs. Kiekhoefer, nailing small group instruction, the school garden, and Aditya Chebrolu winning 1st in the state science fair in computational biology and bioinformatics. @FISD_NelsonMS

[Dr. Chris Miller, RTSBA @millercm951]

Fun Saturday morning listening to the ideas of our future leaders @FISD_NelsonMS TEDx today.

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

A teacher told me yesterday, “When you’re surrounded by superstars... it makes you want to be better than you are.” That is the power of collaboration — the power of positive peer pressure. The best teachers don’t just inspire their students; they inspire their colleagues.

[Mitzi Garner @GarnerMitzi]

@millerchrFISD @FISD_NelsonMS Congratulations Dr Miller!!!

Kids aren’t distracted because of devices. They are distracted because of the task, lack of relevance, and no real accountability.
