Mr. Bridge

A teacher can be a master in a connected classroom if they: know their role, coach & guide, let students be “techxperts”. Great advise from #CMdigitalage #LTCreads

Super pumped that I was able to have a discussion with author @heza about her book “Classroom Management in the Digital Age” co-authored with @pgreensoup #CMDigitalAge #LTCReads

Came up with a great idea to create a restaurant inside the Statue of Liberty after reading “Her Right Foot” because we are #remakeliteracy. Thanks @bgambro for the useful ideas.

Thanks @y115bookninjas for helping get this school year off to a great start. Took me an entire nine months to honor this man properly but the beard is officially at Lincoln length.

Can't wait to get my hands on some of these.

Thanks #y115bookninjas I absolutely love this book by #barbrosenstock and can’t wait to go to #Yosemite this summer. #NationalPark

Had an encounter with a ninja today. They snuck up behind me and surprised me with this book. #y115bookninjas

Getting my #STEAMingItUp19 on today! Can’t wait to bring some awesome stuff back to my staff.

A teacher that can be replaced by a machine should be. Friday’s #foodforthought Would your school be the same without you?

Our society has become one of overstimulation, when do we give our kids time to just sit and think? #fridayfoodforthought theconversation.com/how-kids… via @How kids can benefit from boredomConversationUK

We spend a lot of time showing kids “what” they need to learn, but how often is time spent modeling to students “how” we learn as adults? #fridayfoodforthought

Bill Gates and Steve Jobs raised their kids tech-free — and it should've been a red flag independent.co.uk/life-style… #fridayfoodforthought Jobs and Gates didn’t let their kids use tech devices, do you? As a tech teacher I see value in school, but outside of the classroom...

Forgot to post yesterday but... #fridayfoodforthought Does the concept “impossible” really need to exist? Do we even need to teach it? When faced with a challenge or a problem how does our thinking affect the final outcome? #UMBCvsUVA #impossiblepossible espn.com/mens-college-basket…

#FridayFoodForThought School is scheduled at certain times, but learning can happen anytime. What are we doing to empower our youth so they have the knowledge to pursue their own passions and interests all of the time?

#FridayFoodForThought How can you make a student feel so important to your classroom that if they were absent they would feel as if the entire class would suffer without their presence?

As a teacher are you more concerned about preventing kids from failing or instead helping them once they do? Friday food for thought.
