Math can be intimidating to students because it seems like if they fall behind it’s nearly impossible to catch up. @TheJLV and @YehCathery encourage teachers to rethink how students learn. @NimahGobir https://t.co/8g7LHccXF4
#ThoughtForTheDay When it comes to acknowledging people for their accomplishments, don’t assume everyone wants to be publicly recognized in front of their peers. It’s good practice to ask others if & how they prefer to be recognized for their efforts. #Culturize
Shaming reading choices can create reading trauma. If students are told that what they like to read (comics, manga and fan fiction, for example) do not “count,” they can disengage and lose their identities as readers. https://t.co/7QB0qJjZxV
The Minnesota Department of Health recently released a COVID-19 Decision Tree for People in Schools, Youth, and Child Care Programs.

This is a great way to ensure grade-level success for students. Also I see this as a better alternative to pre-assessment. Or pre-teaching. This could be a 10% change for me next school year. Start with the critical EUs for each unit. https://t.co/bludm2EJjY

@saravdwerf@fawnpnguyen You did an amazing job. I loved hearing your message and reaffirming my approach to math instruction. Let’s hit that tipping point! Looking forward to day 2 tomorrow!
Congratulations to our Washington PE Healthy Husky Challenge Heros!!! These students raised $100 or more for the WE ALL PLAY playground this year during our PE event. We are so proud of you Washington HEROS!!! Congratulations!!!
@MathforLove Thank you, Thank you @MathforLove modeling subtraction has FAR greater impact on understanding than teaching an algorithm. Teach for understanding!!!!
@DrBradJohnson@TeachingChannel While I agree with this take...it’s what good teachers do and what I believe the public expects us to do. Embrace the opportunity we have in front of us and don’t leave anyone behind. #OwatonnaProud
