Yay Delanie!! Congratulations on being named October’s Student Difference Maker. We appreciate you being a positive role model to the students around you. Thank you for leading by example and exemplifying the TJ Way! #patriotlearning#weareproudofyou
We all give off vibes… and these vibes impact those around us. It is inescapable. Sometimes our influence is intentional, and sometimes it is accidental. But be assured… we are always making an impact.
Intentionally planning and being mindful of how we teach is many times more important than the material we are teaching #everythingcounts#PatriotLearning
That kid you see every morning in the hall who you say ‘good morning’ to but yet never looks up or responds.
Keep trying... you may never get a response, but they know you notice them & that reassurance at the start of their day can be huge.
Yesterday emails were pouring in with staff questions about how to express joy and excitement in their school pictures. Wow, the atmosphere at TJ is electric! #PatriotLearning#everythingcounts#JCstrong
If you do one thing this school year, find the joy in teaching. If you've already found it, hold onto it and help others find theirs. There is no greater gift you can give yourself and others than to be truly in love with what you do.
I remember a teacher telling me: “When you’re surrounded by superstars… it makes you want to be better than you are.” That’s the power of collaboration -- the power of positive peer pressure. The best teachers don’t just inspire their students; they inspire their colleagues.
First day cool memories:Ts singing to Ss at lunch, Ss hugging others, Ss complimenting lunch staff, Ss helping other Ss, and on and on. the joy could be felt at TJ!!#everythingcounts#PatriotLearning#JCstrong
Storytelling, song and dance will always be effective ways to teach and interact with students. Just ask student at TJMS as they experience both song and dance. @JCPSTWEETS @PatriotLearning
Top teachers were the *most* likely to seek advice from their peers. The better the teacher performed, the more likely they were to obtain feedback on how to be even better.
Asking for advice & feedback is a sign of strength, not weakness.
