You know the anticipation you feel when you’re crawling up to the initial drop point on a roller coaster? Feeling like someone stopped the ride and I had to get out at the top. Happy birthday and well wishes John and family #youareamathperson #johnberray

@ERobbPrincipal Importantly, this Iceberg principle is equally true about every human you will ever meet regardless of their success.

@Shannonteaches @katiemartinedu Teaching is a difficult profession, I agree! However, I would encourage you to add to your respiratory of burnout blamings: 1) how is your district supporting you? 2) what affect does you union have on teacher performance? 3) have you reached out for professional development?

@teachseuss @katiemartinedu “And stop holding Ts to ridiculous higher than every other profession standard w/ expectations...” what if the medical field had this expectation of its doctor graduates? The opposite of what you say should be true; it’s the implementation and follow up that is failing us.

@almcsam @alicekeeler @MsCostelloMCHS @rickwormeli2 I hear you! I do have an issue with universally rewarding high achieving kids extra for things they would do anyway - seems opposite of research - BUT, that can depend also on population demographics and kid specifics.

@alicekeeler @MsCostelloMCHS @almcsam @rickwormeli2 There seems to be no real agreement, whether based on research and/or popular opinion, on the topic of due dates and deadlines other than “you need to be prepared for X; if it is Y, you’d better be prepared for that as well.” So, how do we prepare kids for this eventuality?

@alicekeeler @jackiegerstein This topic deserves so much attention. In reference to the claim - should we not teach the growth mindset to those who are not privileged? To what extent is privilege a “determining” factor in growth mindset acquisition? We know this, we move the convo forward.

@adinasullivan @jcorippo Agreed. Quality tech tools, like quality pedagogy, are not instantaneously created, but laboriously cultivated. How can we harness an understanding of this commonality to promote student achievement?

Spreadsheet (example) for understanding time constraints, establishing self-imposed deadlines and tracking progress - student use and teacher use. Help develop student agency and ownership of work. @guhsdtech
