Twice a year—at the beginning of a semester or of a new school year—I always like to share the “the six ‘Fs’ of a great classroom manager.” Whether you’re already back in class with your students or preparing for the new year, it’s the perfect time to remember the 6 “Fs”! #edchat

I am moving from 5th grade ELA to 2nd grade this year! What start of the year chapter book/novel read aloud do you suggest? I love a good classic but I am hankering for something newer and relevant published in the last few years! Anyone have any ideas for me? #kidlit

Many say their biggest regret is that they lived a life that was expected of them rather than one that was meant for them. Be You!

The choices we make today will impact us tomorrow, whether it's how we spend our time, care for our bodies or treat other people. Small choices have great significance. Choose wisely!

A great teacher can be broken by this

A great group of kids can be left behind

This isn’t inclusion, this ignores the 99%.

There is overwhelming research showing homework does little to improve achievement, especially in early years, and can actually have negative effects. Recess however has many positive effects such as improved self regulation of emotions, improved interpersonal skills and focus!

Good morning! Be intentional about letting others know they belong. Make them feel seen, heard, and valued. Do the little things that make others feel appreciated and an important part of your community. All of us want to know we matter so pass that gift on to someone today!👊

We are not teaching mini adults but children. Let them learn, play, and simply be children. Let's give them time to get being a child right before putting the pressures on of being an adult.

Maybe if we rename recess and free play as "SEL", creativity, and innovation building time we might realize that they're foundational to learning and not a break from it.

Middle Level Educators are struggling with the dramatic changes in young adolescents. It is hard to engage &connect with kids. They are easy to anger, struggle with emotions, lost their filter regarding respect and have a lack of focus in school. Time for new ideas and solutions
