Athlete, “I’m tired all the time. How can I get more energy.”

Me, “You can put your phone away by at least 930 pm and get to sleep by 10 pm so when your alarm goes off at 6 am for training you’re rested.”

Athlete, “I can’t I have school work.”

Me, “Show me your screen time from today? Your average time from the last few days? You’re averaging 5 hours. Why can’t you replace screen time with school work so you can get the sleep you need to gain the energy you don’t have to get stronger like you said you wanted when we set goals?”

Athlete, “Well played Miss Wendi.”

This applies to adults too. You have time for many things you just don’t make time because you’re too busy getting distracted with your phone. You know I’m right 💪

This second grader saw Sylvester Stallone and got into full character, reciting a powerful monologue from "Rocky." And the result was epic.

@Xfinity shocking “disconnected” again and now onto the fourth representative

[Mitzi Escobar @MhsEscobar]

@Xfinity Is there anyone able to help? An hour on the phone with three different agents who continue to connect me to closed departments. Oh and all three give me different information.

It turns out that during #BrainBreaks, the brain works overtime. New research illuminates what kinds of breaks benefit learners the most. 🧠

Uses a Student Engagement Continuum to help ss reflect on their level of involvement during a 9-week period. They mark where they were on the Continuum using @kamiapp and choose a goal for the upcoming nine weeks. #StudentEngagement #Education @DRAmyBerry

Students who have IEPs are not "special education students." They are just students. They belong to every teacher they have. Receiving a service doesn't change a students identity as a student. #LeadInclusion #EdChat #UDL #Inclusion

This! 💯

[Lee Ann Jung, PhD @leeannjung]

The most common IEP accommodation is extended time. What if we allowed additional time to any student? Or didn't time at all? If speed isn't what we're assessing, extended time doesn't change the standard. #LeadInclusion #SBLchat #TG2Chat #EdChat #ATAssessment

We spend 50% more hours in school than Finland. They get 15 mins of recess every hour. They have NO standardized tests except for PISA in HS and they outperform us every time. Ironically, in the 1970's, they modeled their education based on US schools and US university research.
