8 weeks into school. Overwhelm has found its way into the building - teachers & students. What can #leaders do to combat this other than managing? Any practical tips to reinvigorate & inspire? Feeling like all I do is manage but I want to #lead

Back in 2020 I connected with @ICGlobalCitizen @KavitaTanna It’s been a while but I was so delighted when @KevinFullbrook1 came back from @nesachat & showed me these cards! Can’t wait to use them to foster relationships with a new team next week #empathytoimpact #sharethejourney

The pandemic affected different age groups differently, but I am noticing something with this new group who was very young (5/6y) during lockdown.
It's not that they don't know how to do things. I think they're not used to being expected to do things on their own.
🙌🏼 throughout the pandemic we said it would be a travesty to go back to doing things like we did before..well it happened for most - same terms, school day..Ss know ders better ways to do things & are no longer convinced “regular” school is the way forward. Maybe they’re right!?!
#ditchmeeting in schools to boost morale & lessen overwhelm. Anyone used them? Any opinions on them? How to structure them? edutopia.org/article/5-ways-…

Anyone else noticing an increase in ss being cruel & unkind to each other? And the tattling - it’s through the roof!
This just me or…?#teachertwitter #education #behavior #teenagers #edutwitter
So much #overwhelm on #teachertwitter rn..but if we #reflect on our practice & hold a #ditchmeeting then maybe we could #worksmarternotharder learning could be more about what ss know & their engagement with it even more than it is about us knowing what they know #edutwitter
Thank you @DFISHERSDSU for the enlightening talk @OS_conferences #dubai last week. It stuck & is already infiltrating our system

Where do our students fall on the engagement spectrum? #teacherclarity @DFISHERSDSU @ToniFaddis @NancyFrey @oamadorv

This is a quote that forever changed my life.
Please help RT in hopes someone sprinkles some love on my wishlist.
My sts come from low socially and economically disadvantage homes. What happens in the classroom WILL make a difference. #clearthelists

Hello! I’m a 2nd grade NYC teacher in the Bronx for a title 1 school. My biggest need is all for my kids. Many won’t have if I don’t give. Superhero day is Friday 10/21. I’d love to give my kids capes and then save them for Halloween. #clearthelist amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/29…

A high quality education must teach students how to be self-regulated learners. Without it, students become highly reliant on overly structured learning environments to grow academically. That ultimately leads to them being blind-sided when those structures disappear.
Calling #education #leaders! What’s the most important thing your learned in your #firstyear in #educationleadership ?

Still reflecting on the inspirational presentation by @raya_bid on redesigning the future of learning. I will be closely following the journey of @sofhumanity What’s your school doing to #changesomething? #passiondriven #edchat #edutwitter #lrnchat #changeitdontfightit
It is common for us to have goals & aspirations for our lives. Don't focus on the end result, instead: study the process. Instead of giving up on the goal, reassess the plan; learn from its failure, and use those learned lessons to navigate a new route. #GLS #ThursdayThoughts
One highlight of @OS_conferences in #dubai was getting to meet this hero @john_hattie
There was no way for me to be smooth…I was a nerd about the whole thing!
I’m so excited for my first @OS_conferences in #dubai! Stay tuned for #updates and #leadershiplearning #educationleadership from the conference
A morning as #assistantprincipal in beautiful #kuwait. The lesson - if you can’t commit to the time, stay put n don’t think it’s gonna be an easy ride #leadershiplessons #educationleadership
