If you want to help build up a child, do not gather up checklists
and busywork. Instead, teach them to yearn for a life of reflection, growth, and community.

Today we started learning about Soft Skills (interpersonal people skills) and then played a team game to practice those skills by playing a Zoom Breakout Game where teams rewrote the Preamble to the Constitution in kid friendly language.

I've asked this question for a third year now at the end of teaching 5th grade US History. How would it be best to meet extraterrestrials? Most students decided on choice 5.

People are not born extraordinary. They become extraordinary when they make the decision not to settle for average.

Anything that you are doing to stay connected and help kids is great! Do your best, but don't stress!

Teacher friends: our world has been flipped upside down & we’re a tad busy 🙃🤪 If you’re using Zoom to connect with Ss, go through your settings! It takes some time. Here’s my cheat sheet to get you started (but be sure to check out Zoom’s resources too). We got this! 🙌🤓🎥

“When I am struggling, I think of three things.  What is the obstacle? How do I shift my thinking to make it better? And, how do I give myself a blank slate to move forward, even if the situation does not provide that for me?” https://t.co/KYMxA9qirc

@WeAreTeachers That's the bee's knees!

@stevebayouk Is that answer you want your students to know easily Google-able, fast fact, or DOK level 1? Good question.

“Comics are just like any other type of reading: in order to help the hesitant student, you have to find the right fit.” Here’s how comics can serve as "literary bridges."

I introduced my students to the Hero's journey today to help write narratives. I simplified it into 7 steps. Big thanks to the Noun Project for their images.#IUSD #TheNounProject #WritingRocks

Instead of only looking at what's changing in education, let's remember what principles of learning are still the same. @ajjuliani @IUSD

[Michael Hubbard @HubTeach]

How can we as educators empower our students by remembering the "why" we became and stayed educators? @ajjuliani @IUSD

@occue #occuetechfest19 is like Comic Con for teachers, where you not only meet your heroes, but you yourself become a better hero to your students

[Michael Hubbard @HubTeach]

@jcorippo is rocking it. Teachers becoming a lighthouse for other teachers at your school. Start with the yes now group help grow the not yet group. #fastandthecurious
