Teachers, be mindful of home life when assigning. Instead Of daily tasks, maybe program a week at a time? This gives families the flexibility to work at a pace that complements current obligations and family dynamics. Overall well-being should always be our number one priority.

I miss speaking to school leaders who dedicate their days to supporting and caring for their student. To all the educators out there, stay strong and stay safe. 3/3 @WeAreTeachers #TeacherStrong #teachershelpingteachers

Witnessing the the magic of learning. I miss having thoughtful and intentional coaching conversations with teachers as they work to improve their pedagogy. I miss conversing with students and having them excitedly share with me what they just learned. 2/ @WeAreTeachers

One last tweet thread during this work break: I knew transitioning to online learning was going to be stressful, but I was not prepared for this immense feeling of loss I am currently experiencing due to schools closing. I miss visiting a teacher’s classroom and 1/@WeAreTeachers
