I’m trying (keyword trying) to move my math/teacher content over to @miss_garst if you haven’t yet, check out my kiddos killing it today! So many reasons to sit with a full bucket this evening! #iteachmath
Students up using vertical non-permanent surfaces #VNPS to teach their peers the content they studied yesterday. I was nervous, and the kids - whew - they should up and showed off! It was a good day! #ThinkingClassroom #MTBoS #iteachmath #BestStudentsEver

For the second day in a row, this student wanted to take a pic at the end of class so she could show her sister the complex work we did in class. #iteachmath #MTBoS #stats #ThinkingClassrooms #MathAtManual

But now I’m in a place that I feel really strongly that i can’t do that anymore -— where the real work begins. #GradingForEquity

Alumni, parents, community members, current students, district support personnel — all gathered to provide feedback to teachers on their plans. This is the work. And i couldn’t imagine doing it anywhere else, with anyone else! #TBoltLegacy @DeremerEdTalk

When the MLB announced Denver would get the All-Star Game, people claimed Colorado and Georgia had similarly restrictive voting rules. And that's nonsense. #9NEWS #HeyNext (via @Marshall9News) bit.ly/3fMGeGG

Say it louder, for the people in the back!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
If you're worried that students will Google and cheat on assessments, then create a better assessment.

Once upon a classroom, I thought I gave students a voice. But it's not mine to give. I cannot give what they already own. But I can give an ear. That is mine to give. Student voice is already there. It's not something we give. It's something we honor. And we do when we listen.

Today educators, focus on what you can control. Stop worrying about the things you can’t. Focus on building relationships, focus on your instruction, and focus on empowering and building your students up. One day at a time. #NextLevelTeaching
