What a week! Firstin person trainings in 1 1/2 years and we couldn’t have been more excited! GLAD research and Theory with a small but mighty bunch. PLUS, new to Dry Creek teachers (22 in person!) Such amazing energy @drycreekschools @DCJESDEdServ@CorrieTraynor@AmberlyBranson
There are no "bad kids". Specific strategies to help educators work with kids who may have more challenges. I'm adding this book to my nightstand! #therearenobadkids@charlieap ap

Great read! Highlights restorative practices and emphasized that teacher who work with traumatized students have a higher rate of secondary trauma. We lead by example. Teaching is hard- take care of you! Mindfulness is next on my agenda! https://t.co/UiMF6yuKA7
@jendebort Thank you for letting come glimpse your circle yesterday! I was editing it and i didn’t want to Cut anything out because it was alllllll sooooooo good!
@BuildMathMinds Holy Moly! I love decomposing numbers into easier bits but you just blew my mind with the thought of decomposing FRACTIONS! Yes! This is awesome- #whydidntIthinkofthat
A day of math articulation with our @AntelopeMeadows 3rd-5th grade teachers. Great discussion around standards, expectation, fluency, tasks, and conceptual learning. #DCJESDproud Borrowed curriculum knowledge from @sekiebler mixed w/ creativity and new brain science @youcubed
Thank you @RJUHSD for the opportunity to meet @joboaler. I got all tongue tied when chatting with her! Tons of faith with her involvement in the CA Math Framework and more. Having brought her online course to 90 teachers has been a great conversation starter #DCJESDproud
I’m loving seeing the Community Building Circles from Restorative Practices popping up all over Dry Creek! Makes for a happy trainer! #dcjesdproud#iirpgrad
Restorative Circle in the shade. The kids took Frapple (friendship apple) very seriously. Today wasn’t light and fluffy but it gave us some really good topics to discuss that will help kids make connections and understand each other better. #dcjesdproud @BarrettRanch_
