Can you feel that wind blowing through. That is the wind of change, 1st gradersfrom @mshulgan5 @mrs_jorg and @LorTeacher turning into 2nd graders @DeVargasSchool

[Kristin Jorgensen @mrs_jorg]

To parents worried about their kids falling behind, I want to tell you that every kid is right where they are supposed to be. No one is ahead or behind. Good teachers meet kids right where they are. There are alot of good teachers in the world. So love your kids. We’ll all be ok.

Stopped by @DeVargasSchool to get a few distance learning supplies. Left these behind. I miss this place so much. 💛💙

Celebrating with a little musical chairs as we finish our first bend of writers workshop. Encouraging each other with kind feedback, asking and answering questions, and of course dancing to til the music stops! #DVlions #devargas @DeVargasSchool

It's common to start a book and be confused, or to read a passage and miss something, but teachers don't often make it clear how universal that experience is, no matter one's #reading level @Kschwart https://t.co/J2lfwwp5CV #edchat #elachat #elemchat #growthmindset

[Kristin Jorgensen @mrs_jorg]

Yes!! Flexible seating AND flexible mindset are key

[edutopia @edutopia]

Do flexible classrooms work? "[They] are successful because they go hand in hand with a change in pedagogy...Changing the layout of your classroom will almost certainly have no impact at all—if you don’t change your teaching too." https://t.co/HinWdH29hP

[MindShift @MindShiftKQED]

Research-informed practices are important, but can be unrealistic or disconnected from classroom reality. What if teachers themselves were the research engine -- the spark of continued improvement? @Kschwart https://t.co/kHWz0BYJqj #edchat #cpchat #edadmin #growthmindset

[Kristin Jorgensen @mrs_jorg]

One of my favorite parts of my newly set up classroom. On Thursday I will meet my students and I hope that each one of them truly believes they are a world changer 🌎
