@Kareemfarah23 I got my modern classroom cert this summer and 4 weeks into school my mind is blown! How did I not realize how much of a gap I had In my gen ed classes vs honors?How did I not see the gen ed Kiddos who needed to be moved to honors or vise versa. Game changer in my title 1 school!
@baseball_bucco What is up with Suwinski?! Why doesn’t he swing at anything?! His strikeout-while-looking record has got to be the one of the worst. Not sure why Shelton hasn’t benched him or sent him to AAA.
Thankful for the scholarship opportunity to learn from @modernclassproj in April! Looking forward to learning how to build an even more student-centered classroom.
So often our students who are carrying toxic levels of stress can't access their cortex, & although brilliant, they will always choose to look misbehaved before they look stupid! This template allows us to break down content so that they feel doable! We shared this in class!
The best teachers always use exemplars and provide students with a picture of what great work looks like when giving assignments. Written and spoken directions and instructions aren't good enough. Show kids what success looks like on the front end!

A child's behavior isn't about me.
They're not doing this to me.
It's a symptom like a sneeze showing us a cold, a cut showing there's a wound, and a scab showing us healing.
This behavior is showing us that the nervous system is rough. Can we become curious? What is underneath?
Let’s stop using the word “homework” & “class work”, and instead call it “practice”. Stop categorizing learning activities by the location where it’s supposed to take place, & instead name it for its purpose.
Day one of VEA's Instruction and Professional Development Conference in is the books, and with it lots of good discussion and growth--plus the excitement of being able to be together again! #ipd2021
Last night we kicked off the 2021 virtual edition of #VEASparks. Over the course of the weekend, the next generation of VEA leaders will learn more about their union and ways to engage and make a difference moving forward!
