5 points of BIST info to pass to the 26-27 teacher/s: 1. The skill the student is missing, 2. How is the skill taught and coached, 3. What protections are in place, 4. Does the student have contribution, 5. How best to communicate with parents. #BISTon #AllInCARE @OurCornerstones

🎵 Run Forever 🏃🏼💨 is a short song I helped create as a tribute to Jack Hoffman, his incredible journey, and the fight to end pediatric brain cancer. 💛🏈

This song honors his spirit and the amazing work of @TeamJackFoundation.

Together, we can make a difference.

💬 Let’s keep Jack’s dream alive. Jack won an amazing battle and is receiving heavenly rewards.

Watch, share, and join the fight however possible!

Here’s a useful tip to help students improve their writing. ✍️ 🤩

Ask them to read their work aloud. While it may not feel as natural—or modest—as reading silently, it can help them catch often-overlooked errors, a 2022 study found.⁠

Humans are hardwired to forget. But these research-backed strategies can boost retention! 🧠 📈

Great idea!

Our teachers meet in vertical teams at the end of every year to review the priority standards that gave their students the greatest challenges! What worked? What were the challenges?

Learning is Required!

What am I going to teach today?

How will kids show evidence of learning today?

Design for it.

With educator @TheAlexNieves' sentence stems, Ss are empowered to agree, disagree and discuss everything in between! #StudentVoice

From creativelyteachingfirst on IG: “Here is how I teach my students open and closed syllables!

I place sticky notes on our classroom door. I opened the door for open syllables and closed the door for closed syllables.

This visual always seems to connect with students!"

[Teacher2Teacher @teacher2teacher]

Class discussions are more fun and rewarding when everyone shares!

How do you encourage reluctant Ss to dive in?
