Just remember... kindness wins. We teach our kids this, but as adults, this behavior should be modeled.

Have students present often. Make small group presentations a norm. We've all sat through a bad presentation. It's not a natural skill to make a great presentation, that is the result of doing it often and getting feedback.

@A_StilesTeach @GoNoodle I just learned about GoNoodle last week! It’s amazing!

[Jennifer Abney @jenn_abney]

Mind blown while learning some 3rd grade science! Had so much fun and learned a lot in #EEC301SP19 last night!

[Jennifer Abney @jenn_abney]

Felt like an epic failure at objectives last night in #EEC301SP19 , but I have now learned and ready to start tackling this thing!!!

[Jennifer Abney @jenn_abney]

#EEC301SP19 Yes!

One of the best things parents can do for their kids to make them successful in life is read to them every day... Even if they are in high school.

Excellence isn’t...
-Doing what you’re told.
-Being perfect.
-Winning or being the best.
-Pretending, playing games or being something that you’re not.

Excellence is...
-Being your best
-Striving to improve.
-Doing more than expected.
-Working hard at things that matter to you.

So many reminders to teach outside of the box. Who really fits into a box anyways? #EEC301S19

[Justin Tarte @justintarte]

I’m convinced the best way for schools to teach empathy, #respect, tolerance & compassion, is to as adults, model these behaviors each & every day for our #students.

[Jennifer Abney @jenn_abney]

@taylorsisteach @PrinceEa It’s amazing that we CAN be the future that changes how education works.

[Jennifer Abney @jenn_abney]

@alcalateach @PrinceEa I completely understand. Sometimes it feels like we just go through the motions to get the end result.

[Jennifer Abney @jenn_abney]

@HutchinsTeach @PrinceEa I completely agree! The grade doesn’t necessarily determine understanding.

[Jennifer Abney @jenn_abney]

What is School For? Such a powerful video from @PrinceEa that is such a great reminder that all students are not the same and should not be measured by the same ruler. If only we could draw out the talents of each child and help them be successful at their talents. #EEC301S19
