If I've learned one thing in 19 years of teaching it is that I cannot read minds and nothing can replace LISTENING to students. Listening includes hearing, looking at their body language, and just being quiet so I can hear what they're really saying.

As a principal, I’m supposed to be an “instructional leader.” But I told our teachers this week, that I don’t know how to do that in the middle of a pandemic.

Right now is not the best time to talk about programs, plans, data points, and “best practices.” It is time to support.

@coolcatteacher No, it’s not just you. GC was acting wonky all day for me.😳

Some of the best leaders in education are still called teacher. Never underestimate the experience and expertise they bring to your school.

Just saw a list of rules for students during at-home learning. It said students had to be wearing shoes. There is no emoji that can adequately capture how INSANE this is. Hey grown-ups? You're making a challenging thing so much worse with crap like this. Stop.

Wherever you teach. Whoever you teach. However you teach. Here's to you, teachers. 💗💗💗 This may just be the most important year of your whole teaching career because the kids (and the world) need you so much.

👉Keep your clicks to as few as possible!

👉Every click that students or families have to make is a potential crossroad to get lost!

👉This applies for in-person, distance, or any learning

For me, nature seems to be the opposite of social media. It restores. It refills. It renews. And we reconnect as a family when we turn off social media and head outside. https://t.co/IJPP5WmJ2J

Attendance during live remote instruction is going to be a struggle. Especially in environments where truancy was a challenge prior to COVID-19. When you rely too heavily on live instruction, you put students with limited access to devices and internet at an huge disadvantage.

Countless students have spent their whole education feeling rushed. Instead of giving kids more time when they are lost, we push them through content to “stay on pace”. By doing so, we reinforce the notion that speed matters more than mastery.
