Is your district preparing to go all in? New transitions & changes this year can be filled with fear, stress & anxiety for Ss & Ts. It's not too late to create a QuitPoint classroom. Using these easy tips: build Ss optimism, create Ss centered communities & emphasize feedback.

I read Culturize @casas_jimmy this summer along with @QuitPoint Two completely different topics, but both very helpful as we move forward. #CatholicEdChat

Great way to avoid hitting a #QuitPoint: compare yourself to yourself yesterday, not to everyone else around you. When the goal is small, incremental improvement, success is always in sight.

Before diving into a syllabus, class rules, or content, consider the culture you want to model throughout the year. Taking the time early on to nurture a culture of collaboration, communication, and critical thinking will pay dividends throughout the year. #backtoschool
Such an important message. We live in such a disposable society that it’s just the norm for most to toss and buy new. Parents need to model a repair mentality for their kids.
Reduce, Reuse, & Recycle ♻️ ♻️ ...but too often we forget to emphasize Repair! Help your kids fix something instead of throwing it away! #Sustainability #STEM #DIY #parenting

“Students should not fear punitive grades for the growing pains that are merely part of that process.” - @QuitPoint Why do schools continue to insist on grading in these traditional ways? How can we do better for our students?

Great talk with @drrodberger today about #QuitPoint, personalizing the learning experience, and breaking an outdated and unrealistic mentality surrounding Education. Got us fired up to wrap up the school year with an innovative approach.

Replying to @mraspinall
I interviewed the authors of @QuitPoint & they point out that students may look “compliant” but they’re actually "effort rationing"...it’s a sign that kids need help with #resilience

Even the best race dogs in the world can hit a #QuitPoint. If yelling causes dogs to shut down, imagine the impact it has on children, spouses, employees, and colleagues. @Pomme_ed @markbarnes19 es.pn/2SUa796

#QUITPOINT WARNING! If you teach middle grades or HS, be aware that the new season of #Fortnite comes out Thursday at midnight. Expect a lot of tired and distracted kids on Thursday at school. @QuitPoint @markbarnes19 #HackLearning #Edchat

Avoid the Monday morning #QuitPoint: build optimism to start the week by chunking student tasks into small and more manageable ones. Little wins stacked together lead to bigger gains the rest of the week! #Hacklearning @markbarnes19 @QuitPoint
