Thank you to any business (local store, chain store or restaurant) that tries to help teachers!

While I don't believe that students should work in groups all of the time, I agree with this article in that 1) students sometimes learn best from each other, and 2) that teachers need to TRAIN students how to best work in groups. #wendylanee

"The more high-quality collaborative learning experiences students had at school, the more that the students said they felt their personal learning needs were met and that they were adequately challenged and supported when they needed help." https://t.co/HhreGGKq7N

@MorganT47563479 Great article! I wish I could teach my AP Psychology course on a blended model. My school has started offering some online and blended classes to students, but none that are AP. Hopefully, in the future, we will make that leap. #wendylanee

@MyishaWalton @wendylanee Is Canvas a good tool? I keep hearing teachers from other systems talk about it, but it doesn't seem to have hit our system in mass. Our system is big on Google products. #wendylanee

@DottsieG Writing is still a struggle for many of my AP student. We have had to focus hard on writing for the AP exam. So, thank you for putting the time and energy into teaching the younger students how to write. It really makes a difference. #wendylanee

College Board provides multiple training opportunities/workshops for new and experienced teachers in their specific AP subject.

Since I teach AP Psychology, I am a member of the APA and they periodically host webinars sessions on various psychological topics for both students and instructors.

Each school in our system has a listserv that is used to communicate information to parents. In my classroom, I used things like contact lists in Gmail, the Remind app, and Google Classroom to communicate information to students and parents. #wendylanee #fourthtweet

Need PD hours? Don't have the time/money to be out of the classroom? Try eLearning for Educators! It is provided by the ALSDE and allows you to get PD credit without leaving school or home. https://t.co/7PrLDnVdT1

Agreed! While I don't have the rate of absenteeism that others school do, my wife experienced this problem in her Kindergarten class last year and it impacted her student's standardized test scores. #wendylanee #secondtweet

Missing 10% of the school year for any reason is considered chronic absence, and research shows that absenteeism correlates with weaker performance at all ages.

Here’s why attendance needs to be a priority this school year. h/t @AttendanceWorks https://t.co/rneOky4tzA

@DottsieG I love Remind! My students are thankful too as they get bogged down with assignments from multiple classes and appreciate a friendly reminder about upcoming due dates and test dates.

[Michael Hoyle @michael_hoyle]

Does a no-zero policy hurt or help students? This is an on-going debate in one of my local school systems. #wendylanee #firsttweet
