@UCottrell @waysworldrocks @CES_Cougars @MrsJLeal @kaylieanh @Mtlira77 @jmcoulom That’s not mad, that’s Teacher FIERCE!

Superintendents, whether school is in person or online, focus on staff morale. The adjustments/transitions over the past few months & now this fall are incredible. And don’t just focus on morale but their mental & emotional health too. Teachers need to feel safe and supported.

Friends, please read ALL of the article. If these words of Manny Scott don’t pierce you to the heart, is your heart even beating? “When justice dies, hope dies, and when hope dies, bitterness is born.”

@Shannon11373 @redsox12401 What an accomplishment for AJ...and Mom! More excitement ahead!

[Sherry Withrow @SherryWithrow5]

Such a great reminder. When you know (and we know) you’re not at your best as a teacher, ask yourself or a trusted colleague why. What needs to change so I can be my best self for that kid? @CES_Cougars

[Dr. Manuel Scott @ManuelScott]

No one student should be allowed to disrupt the learning of the rest of the class or assembly. However, before you kick that kid out of class, make sure you have prepared yourself to be your best. Sometimes, disruptions can be prevented by excellent preparation. Sometimes.

[Sherry Withrow @SherryWithrow5]

@ManuelScott Being my best is a crazy daily recipe ... teaspoon of creativity, two rounded tablespoons of energy, leveled cup of patience, and a heap of prayer. When my pantry shelf is bare, I still have to shake and bake, so I borrow an ingredient or two from my neighbor!

[Sherry Withrow @SherryWithrow5]

@Shannon11373 I want to read them ALL! Thanks for putting kindness and encouragement on the agenda!

Cooper teachers, what if we developed some common hand signals to use with our students? I ❤️❤️❤️ this idea!!! @CES_Cougars

[KE Vallie @Kevallie77]

If you are not using sentence frames, you are missing out on powerful instruction! The look on my students’ faces said EMPOWERMENT! @GISD4ELLs @Bussey_Owlets @BusseyAVID @AVIDExcel

[Sherry Withrow @SherryWithrow5]

Cooper teachers, we should develop a version of this great idea to use with House Points! @CES_Cougars

[Maria Herrera @teach_herrera]

Since I have 4 classes name plates are not an option... however, I like to give my kiddos a letter, one per person at a table (ABCD) for when we do discussions. This year I figured I’d put everything in one place! Accountable talk stems, Dojo points and their letter 🤓
