First week? More like the first month! And that is time well spent!

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

The first week of school should focus on building relationships. And part of that is establishing routines, procedures, and expectations. Consistency helps students feel more secure.

I want to know more about this, especially because math is not my teaching concentration. On the surface, this makes so much sense.

[Alfie Kohn @alfiekohn]

1/3 Eminent math educator Constance Kamii discovered that teaching kids algorithms - formulas or step-by-step procedures, like borrowing - isn't just less effective than having them construct their own problem-solving strategies. It's downright harmful...

Relationships first! #maslowbeforebloom

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

Without relationships, all you are left with are rules. That's not an environment where teachers or students thrive.

Day 2 of #SCCoaching22 starting…NOW!

[Dr. Shauna Hemler (she/her) @ShaunaHemler]

@Blair_AMSTI Why does it feel so right to be so obsessed with a Norms slide? I’m not sure, but I get it!

[Dr. Shauna Hemler (she/her) @ShaunaHemler]

Day 1 of #SCCoaching22 was wonderful! Very thankful and privileged to be here among so many brilliant people. Looking forward to tomorrow!

[Dr. Shauna Hemler (she/her) @ShaunaHemler]

Every day is a chance to start fresh and grow.

Not all your students come to class wanting to learn… but they all come wanting to belong. And when they feel like they belong… they’re much more likely to learn.

[Dr. Shauna Hemler (she/her) @ShaunaHemler]

Love this! Look for students’ strengths!

[Tyler Rablin @Mr_Rablin]

Last year I made it a goal to identify one thing I appreciated about each student within the first three weeks. I wrote them all down on sticky notes and handed them out at the end of the three weeks. It took surprisingly little time and helped show kids that I really saw them.

[Dr. Shauna Hemler (she/her) @ShaunaHemler]

@ModestTeacher Or are they excited because they know you will connect with them?

[Dr. Shauna Hemler (she/her) @ShaunaHemler]

Love building my circle! Have you built yours?

@Luvmydragons Happy Birthday!

The functions of #behavior are not manipulation on the part of students. They are emotional needs we must teach them to meet. Here are the functions rephrased as needs: #LeadInclusion #edchat #udl #udlchat #inclusion #Neurodiversity #edutwitter #thursdayvibes #ThursdayThought

[Dr. Shauna Hemler (she/her) @ShaunaHemler]

@tranewman @wellfitchad This. And further, student are kids. They live in the “school world” and we can make our own rules. The “real world” is nonsense.

This. Central to my leadership beliefs.

I can think of very little that teachers do, that is more important … than communicating to students that they matter.

[Monte Syrie @MonteSyrie]

We often talk about there not being enough time to teach, but I wonder if we shouldn't talk about there not being enough time to learn.

And while I'd like to think the two go hand in hand, I am not always convinced that such talk is as kid-centered as it is curriculum-centered.
