Addressing the teacher shortage shouldn't involve lowering criteria to be a teacher--it should involve supporting teachers, paying them, and providing the resources needed to best serve students.
Principals check on your staff individually, some are struggling, never underestimate the importance of checking in. Teachers, find time to check on each other, especially if you know someone is having a hard time. Effective schools are a family-families take care of each other.
Every time we remove a student from class we rip away another layer of our own power. Im not saying never to do it. Im saying this always needs to be factored before impulsively removing. #education#thatonekid

An excellent day of learning for instructional coaches through Central Rivers AEA! Looking forward to implementing some great ideas from today's session. @TammyPlace@JoPrusha@JulieTier1
@aj2kuni I agree! This also helps quieter students not to feel so nervous--it gives them time to collect their thoughts before having to share out to the class.

Where I am today is a result of so many people who invested in me, poured their life into me, and helped me. No matter how successful you become, don’t ever forget—you didn’t get there by yourself.
