This district has the best coaching system for professionals we at SPN have ever seen! When this happens everyone in the system benefits from it. – at East Dennis, MA

Andrea came from France, and did video interviews before she arrived here for a face to face interview before we hired her. We have 9 first year teachers in the group. We coach every teacher every year to strive for collective efficacy. #207Now #207Learn

Replying to @Maine_207
@Maine_207 we started coaching staff in Cooperative Learning training in 2007, added coaches in every building in 2009 and began voluntary pilots, which led to "All-In" coaching in 2014. Hearing S & T voices on the noticeable impact is powerful #207Now vimeo.com/273626237

Taking a page from @orangetheory to mix it up in English class. Challenges include flipped skills lessons, searching for evidence in a literary text, vocab, and individualized grammar practice, with a little movement and expressions of gratitude mixed in. 😁 @Maine_West #207now

How your decisions about curriculum - what to include and what not to include - foster or undermine equity edut.to/1YiURzk
Equity is Fostered Through What We Teach and What We Don't

Equity is Fostered Through What We Teach and What We Don't

An examination of social studies textbooks reveals large gaps in a commitment to equity. Teachers can begin to counter this by incorporating curriculum that is culturally responsive.

GREAT Question. Why do we keep doing this? teapawt.net/DrTonyWagner/status/95…
Tony Wagner (@DrTonyWagner) profile pictureTony Wagner@DrTonyWagner20 Jan 2018
Algebra is the most failed course in high school and college. Why should it be a “gate keeper” course? @CathyNDavidson explores the question in this excellent article. @dintersmith, who has a PhD in math, takes on the math curriculum in our book, #MLTS. washingtonpost.com/news/answ…

Analysis | Of course algebra is important. It’s also a huge problem.

"For too many students, algebra is not the gateway to mathematical literacy. It is the gatekeeper."

The best teachers have 3 things in common: They are all about the kids. They are relentless about getting better. They are always positive.
