After a particularly stressful day of classes, I decided to take the notes I’ve collected from my 3rd grade students so far & post them on my closet door. Looking at each of these completely turned my mood around. I can’t wait to see each of their smiling faces in the morning. 💕

I’m so fortunate to get to work with such an incredible and unique program here in Tuscaloosa!

Starting last Monday, I began volunteering weekly with a local organization known as… https://t.co/hcveXdRBdC

Excited to use this book to teach similes and spark important conversations about the celebration of diversity! 💕 #thecolorsofus #EduColor

If you haven’t already, change your mindset. You don’t HAVE to go to school or work today. You GET to go to school or work — and as educators, that is the greatest honor and privilege! #positivethinking

@TeacherAdvice Thank you for those recommendations! I will absolutely be looking into those. (And how neat— I just realized that you are the author of one of my university textbooks!)

[Hannah Ritchie @MsHRitchie]

Experienced educators! Please share some book recommendations for a pre-service/first-year teacher. 📚 #education #professionaldevelopment #BookRecommendations @TeacherAdvice

Tuesday’s teacher challenge -

On your next assessment, make the last question be “What else do you know about this topic that wasn’t on the test?”

Let Ss share what they know vs you pulling the info from them.

Don't talk about quality of work when providing feedback. Address decisions students have made and their impact. Point & describe. @rickwormeli2 #ALAMLE

Popcorn pops at different times when it is ready. It is important to recognize that students also “pop” at different times in every content area! #acgal

[Dr. LaTonya Sibley, NBCT @DrLaTonyaSibley]

Failure IS an option! Students learn from failure. When students fail the best response is, “Let’s try again”! Recovering from failure teaches more than being labeled for failure ever could teach. @rickwormeli2 #ACGAL

[Hannah Ritchie @MsHRitchie]

It’s all SO worth it. ❤️ https://t.co/EgzeJHFWgH

[Hannah Ritchie @MsHRitchie]

Correcting students’ mistakes for them doesn’t facilitate learning. Give students the opportunity to correct their own mistakes. Check out this strategy — a video shared at #ACGAL by Rick Wormeli
