I teach Chemistry, Physics, and Engineering. Unfortunately, I don't have time for much else, but I also love gardening, honeybees, baking, and hiking.

A4: In science more pictures, charts, captions support all my students. #READ5305 #ELLCHAT

A4: What can I do to connect ELL parents to my HS science classroom. Any ideas? #READ5305 #ELLCHAT

[Lanette Lanchester @LaniTeach]

A4: I would ask that curriculum be made google compatable. I spend a lot of time transcribing material into Slides or docs where the google translate functions can help my students, and make it accessible to parents. #READ5305 #ELLCHAT

[Lanette Lanchester @LaniTeach]

@KarenNemethEdM Yes, I have changed schools, but I think of her often. I think I will send her a thank you note and encouragement. #READ5305 #ELLCAHAT

A3: Two years ago, my students had an ELL teacher who would ask for my vocabulary a week in advance. Students had the opportunity to preview lessons with her and come to class with a plan. She was amazing. She loved them so much! #READ5305 #ELLCHAT

@KarenNemethEdM !!! I love this so much! I will do this even in high school! READ5305 #ELLCHAT

A2: My ELL students love when I include art in my science class. We draw, paint, design. #READ5305 #ELLCHAT

In my 7th grade biology class, students made a gourp presentations. One group had several ELL students embedded in the group, one of whom knew only spanish. They created a slide presention that they delivered in english and spanish. #READ5305 #ELLCHAT

[Lanette Lanchester @LaniTeach]

[Lanette Lanchester @LaniTeach]

Hi! Will there be a #READ5305 #colchat

[Lanette Lanchester @LaniTeach]

Thank you! This was a great discussion and I will follow up on some of the leads! #READ5305 #educoach

A7: I set goals with my students. I always ask them for a reasonable academic goal and a personal goal. Sometimes students will say they will go to bed on time or wash their face twice a day. They like these goals and feel accomplished. #READ5305 #educoach

[Lanette Lanchester @LaniTeach]

@Gerardo55138927 Yes, it is strange sometimes to realize what is controlling my thoughts, or clogging my thoughts. Then releasing them helps me to move on purposefully. #READ5305 #Educoach

[Lanette Lanchester @LaniTeach]

A2: I like to walk everyday, write 3 pages about what ever I want, pray, and keep the Sabbath. And it is amazing how all the answers to my "how do I fix that?"'s are solved while sitting still in the garden on a Saturday. #READ5305 #educoach

[Lanette Lanchester @LaniTeach]

@LindseyFrank88 I will check it out! #READ5305

[Lanette Lanchester @LaniTeach]

Has anyone heard of a study about down time or self care for teachers and their effectiveness? I imagine that that would be interesting. I feel like everyone always wants a little more than I can give, but when I take time for me, I can do anything! #READ5305 #educoach

[Lanette Lanchester @LaniTeach]

@KathyPerret Yes! I often pretend like I am Dori. "Just keep swimming." And I realize that I am experiencing much of what our students experience when they carry a heavy load, plus social/family issues. So I hope to always use it to make their lives better too. #READ5305 #educoach

A4: This summer is challenging because I have at least 300 hours of PD lined up between 2 grad classes, GT training, PLTW training, switching to google classroom training, changing curriculum, ELL certification. And I need to paint my house. #READ5305 #educoach

[Lanette Lanchester @LaniTeach]

@drcazsteele Yes! Ironically, my day 5 of GT training, emphasizes that to help students develop higher level thinking and creativity, you need to give them time. Down time. Time to process and to come up with deeper investigations. #READ5305 #educoach
