What happens before the first bell has a huge impact on the outcome of the entire school day. The tone of the day is established in the first 20 minutes of the day. The effectiveness of the entire day is established in the first 20 min. ⁦@mariemontelem⁩

We tend to give a lot of our attention to what's wrong and not enough to what's right. Look for the good in yourself, in others, & at home. Focus on what's right. You'll be surprised how much good news there really is! Make it a great day. #MindfulMoment #PositiveAttitude

Banning technology isn’t the answer. Not teaching kids how to use technology and social media at a young age is akin to throwing them in a lake without teaching them how to swim. How will they know how to handle 21st century challenges if we don’t equip them with those skills?

It’s important for veteran teachers to take the rookie teachers under their wing… to support them, to encourage them, to remind them that in spite of some hard days ahead, it is a great profession… a rewarding career… and a noble calling.

You can help students learn from their writing mistakes by intentionally making your own mistakes in front of them. edut.to/2ZHM55M

Words of reassurance left for an elderly lady with dementia by her daughter. A simple white board left in her sight line in her sitting room. Helped to reduce constant anxious phone calls.

Dear K-5 Classroom Reading Teacher Colleagues. I am involved in a study of time allotted for reading instruction. I developed a survey to get teachers' sense of what is the appropriate amount of time that should be devoted to various aspects of classroom reading instruction.

If you want students to remember something, ask them to draw it. A new study finds that drawing beats reading or writing about a concept because it forces us to process information in three ways: visually, kinesthetically, and semantically. @YoukiTerada edut.to/2JAfdIh

3 factors contribute to more kids having difficulty regulating their emotions and behavior says @KatherineLewis: 1️⃣ Less unstructured #play 2️⃣ More time spent on tech 2️⃣ They're not asked to contribute to a wider community owl.li/MnlR30nIwP0 #edchat #parents

For children who are in the middle of making a choice we would rather they not make: “Are you sure that’s your best thinking?”
Sometimes I wish I could remove all my kids’ struggles. Then I remember how struggles made me stronger. #loveandlogic

Experiment: Ask them about the correct answers and assignments they scored well on instead of asking about mistakes and low scores.
