Today we used Canvas to record ourselves summarizing what we are reading and using our thinking strategies. #isdstrong #isdfirst

A5: I have been doing some meditation at night right before I go to bed. Also I call my mom for a chat and we talk about our classes and similarities we see :)

I would love to see words that inspire and lift up our students. Also words that remind them to follow the habits we are working on, but also for teachers to see for reminders for them. #WSEBulldogChat

A3: In my classroom, we have been working on sharpening the saw with learning how to breathe to calm ourselves and doing mindfulness meditation on days where we might not be feeling the calm. #WSEBulldogChat

Q1 I love the celebrations of learning like our 5th grade science fair where our kids get to share what they worked so hard on. Also I loved Trunk orTreat its fun to see the kids in their costumes

A5 I think it would be really cool to have accountablily partners in different grade levels. It would be so interesting to see if having a buddy would help. #WSEBulldogChat

Many times I have Ss write down their goal for the week. As well we have reading and math binders where students set goals based on assessments and discuss every week. #WSEBulldogChat

A2 We work to provide support during iblock and also placing students in smaller groups to focus on skills needed. #WSEBulldogChat

A5- I think appreciation and emotional support could always improve. Finding a way to make sure that every one of my Ss has found some meaning and feels supported is hard, but I know worth it. I want them to find it in themselves not just hear me say it #WSEBulldogChat

a4. I think the common language of PAWS is great! Students can easily know that every teacher is looking for those positive expectations. Making sure to "notice" something instead "loving" something is always something that I struggle with

[Alison Henderson @miss_hende]

A3. I'm not exactly what I would create but I do know that it should involve the students and their families in the creation. I really like the positive sayings where all can see too.
