Loved last nights House of the Dragon episode. This was probably my favorite scene.

Starting the year off right with some PL! Cultivating Leadership 😍 #ccisd #leaningforward #teacherleader

@pulsareyes She blocked me because I liked your response to that. Wow.

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

@GregAbbott_TX @joanhuffman Oh give me a break. You sure don’t seem to respect us when you’re not trying to use us to get a special session in to suppress voters. Shame on you.

@blink182 y’all wanna come to Texas and tell your tribute band they aren’t being good tributes?

[Dan Crenshaw @DanCrenshawTX]

Remember this? Promises made, promises kept. Pre-register now for this epic July 4th party.

Tidy as you go. If I get up, I pick up and put away at least one thing. I also try to avoid piling up chores and instead keep it to like 1 a day.

[Joelle Trayers @jtrayers]

@MagicalOverload I think the best tip I ever heard was if you have a 10 minute chore just do it. Just wash the dishes just fold the laundry. Don’t put it off.

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

Start small & don’t put more on your plate than you need to. I am a huge advocate for choice, but had to narrow some assignment options at first bc it was overwhelming. It’s okay to change things when you need to for yourself. Be brave, and let families know what you need. (End)

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

things to know: you have to think like a kinder teacher no@matter what grade. Repeat the directions. Visuals for everything. Make use of immersive reader or any other similar function in whichever LMS you use. 2/

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

Great things: kiddos who have school@anxiety are THRIVING. Your energy and enthusiasm really@make the difference, and connections are possible. Don’t try to make it in person when you are remote - make it something new and unique! 1/

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

It was such a happy moment for them. Their faces lit up!

[Jenny Coronado @JcoronadJenny]

A huge thank you to @JoAnnBurke78 for including Clear Connections in our virtual Character Rally. You made it special for them. 💕

[Mossman Elementary @mossmanelem]

This week has been filled with adorable and festive Knights across the building. 😊

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

What a year this one has turned out to be. I moved back to fourth grade ELA and volunteered myself as a Clear Connections teacher. It’s all proven to be pretty awesome. As you can see, my online teaching background is pretty sweet. I love how homey my classroom is.

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

@Axinia1981 @DurhamES I got the together setting to work for a short time and that was fun.

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

Nuvia! Yesssss! I have seen this young lady grow and learn and she is so passionate about what she does. What a great addition to the teaching staff at Berry!

[Joelle Trayers @jtrayers]

@JamesBerryES Yay Nuvia!!! Those kiddos will be thrilled to have you as their teacher!

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

I love this. I’ve been thinking about utilizing one note this year with students for notebooks. Paper and pencil are so great, but with possibilities of back and forth with school to home, I want something with consistency for them...

[Joanna W Liska @joannawliska]

Incredible work and good good for thought

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

I’m actually working on the same!

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

Had a lovely bout of not remembering my password and a bunch of other mess. But here I am again... with no classroom to tweet about as of late.

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

My experience is that a T has to understand & have a GM themselves to make it happen in class. Most dont understand the theory and have do not apply it to themselves much less to Ss. You can’t teach skills you don’t have.

[Toria Bono FCCT @Toriaclaire]

I'm interested in people's thoughts & am hoping this doesn't turn into a heated debate. I have recently seen a survey where the majority of people voted that growth mindset theories don't work. What are your thoughts and why? I'm interested in updating my understanding of this.

[Sandi Therrell @SandiTherrell]

I love the visuals 🤗😍
