Eleanor Duckworth: The more intensely interested a teacher is in a student’s thinking, the more interested the student becomes in his or her own thinking.
Corollary: The more a teacher just wants to see right answers, the less interested students become in their (or any) thinking

@NoTechHURDles A4: One of my favorite lessons was when students reviewed math concepts and vocab by creating digital anchor charts with Canva. The engagement and conversations were amazing! #LCPSChats
@CWeidow A3. @NoTechHURDles has been great about helping us make sure we aren't just trading paper worksheets for digital versions. No matter the format, students need to be able to show they can apply what they have learned. #LCPSChats
@KStraley_ITRT A2: I read about Live Binder the other day and was intrigued. Providing students with a way to access information, keep it organized, and even create a portfolio - I'd like to learn more! #LCPSChats
@MrsMassiesClass A1. Class Dojo - It is a great way to keep in touch with parents, and make sure they are up to date with everything that is going on at school. #LCPSChats
I’m learning the hardest part of this job is admitting it’s not them, it’s me.
Kids don’t need to be fixed.
I just need to get better at knowing what they need and then adjusting what I do to match who they are.
All kids deserve high levels of learning.
@TomSmith_LCPS A3 Practice! Give many opportunities to develop these skills, as well as time to debrief. Highlight & support student strengths, and encourage learning from each other. #LCPSchats
@TomSmith_LCPS A2 When trusting relationships are formed, students are willing to stretch themselves and take those chances. They usually prefer to work together and share ideas, rather than solve problems independently. #LCPSchats
