It was a great Friday! She totally inspired me to get these; and planning our twin shoe day was really special.

@MrLewis_CVS @karen_langlands @AngelaMattord @MsBasoukeas @LewisTweets130 This looks like a blast, makes me think of 5th grade again!

@bonna_andrus I wish I could say something fancy and inspiring...but it was just a thought I had today, not from a book or anything.

[Katie Reeves @SELingthedream]

It's not teaching content vs. building relationships, or one before the other. It's the difference between, "Turn to page 28 to learn about the Revolution." and "I can't wait to take an this adventure back in time with you." The synergy of content and relationship is the magic.

When science is the most fun part of the day!!!! We love exploring, engaging, and growing as scientists! #NGSS

I was flipping through my classroom photos from this month. This was a photo from RECESS...I love when they get excited to talk about what we're learning, even on their free time.

@GardnerChris44 Ideas like this point so much to a shift toward competency based education models...we know that kids learn concepts at different paces, let's make that the acceptable norm and not a time consuming accommodation.

BEGIN • don’t wait until tomorrow • have a meaningful conversation • make an appointment • call a friend to keep you accountable • do something different even if it’s one thing.

There's a certain feeling you get when someone you don't know, somewhere else in the world validates your ideas or perspective with a like a comment. How do we teach kids (and adults) to value that connectedness without letting it dictate their self worth and purpose? #SEL

@GaryRGrayJr Treat People With Kindness by @Harry_Styles and Mariposa by @peachtreerascal. Pure joy, can't be in a bad mood with these.

Ooh!!!

I’m especially intrigued because this was developed by respected researcher @GaabLab.

One to watch! 👀

"... some experts predicting the beginning of a “whole-child era,” attention will also continue to shift toward understanding reliable ways to assess non-academic areas, such as social-emotional learning and the arts."

New year, new class, SEL 201! Love getting back in action with my Leadership in SEL cohort! @SELinSchools #socialemotionallearning

[Katie Reeves @SELingthedream]

Anyone can say why they think something is important; true leaders can invite others into the vision and help them feel the importance of it, enough to take their own action toward it. #socialemotionallearning

If you feel strongly about something, have the courage to stand up for it. Even if the status quo is resistant or obstinate. Be able to articulate why you believe what you believe and call upon your courage to press on.

@FbellomoB @gcouros This is why Twitter is such a powerful unifier...practicioners are able to interact with authors that bring such value to what we do on a daily basis. Picking up these books now, and working on a way to get more of our CVS education community here for some growth and connection!

[Katie Reeves @SELingthedream]

@JonGordon11 OPEN...to new ideas, learning, and opportunities, things that haven't been done in classrooms before, new ways to make education better for this decade and beyond!

[Katie Reeves @SELingthedream]

beyond his years, and fun enough for my kids to enjoy too, they love to jam. His tagline is Treat People With Kindness and it seems like that's his truth. If we can help kids grow up to value human connection and empathy like this, we'll be golden. #SocialEmotionalLearning #SEL

[Katie Reeves @SELingthedream]

Not usually a celebrity follower but since my #OneWord2020 is OPEN, I watched an interview with @Harry_Styles and I was so impressed by his honesty, poise, and personal measure of musical success (spoiler, it's not money or commercial success). His new music is beautiful, far

@MrLewis_CVS 🙌🙌 It makes a huge difference, that's for sure!!

My 4 y.o just used Talk Moves on me...He pointed to an apostrophe in the book title, I explained ownership...He pointed to a dash, I said it separates the numbers. He says, "Can you say more about that?" 🔥🤓 #NGSS #twoteachersforparents
