Yes! Leverage the ownership of students in their learning by teaching their peers - see the pride in their faces!!
I love promoting peer learning! This video shows my students taking the lead in running science workshops for younger students. A great example of collaboration and knowledge sharing.

Day 2 complete! Learned more about looking at data in a collaborative team and how to use that to advance the learning of students at grade level or higher! There’s energy in the room! Feeling like this is the right next step to calibrate and strengthen!
Day 1 of PLC at Work for teacher leaders & admin complete! Essential standards, learning targets & common summative assessments are in motion so now to help us calibrate our time as highly functioning professional learning communities! Excited to hear what we learn on day 2!
BEST way to enjoy my last day of teaching our rockstar teachers! 🖤💛 Designing courses, orientation, assessments & authentic learning experiences for our newcomer program! Man am I going to miss this!!

CONGRATULATIONS to Newton High School senior, Anahi Sanchez, for being named a 2024 US Presidential Scholar!
Anahi is one of three scholars chosen from Kansas and the only public high school student selected from Kansas. Congratulations, Anahi! #RailerPride
NHS students sharing their problem statement, justifying, designing a prototype & testing it! Oh and those speaking skills too! Love that our Railers have these learning opportunities! Now how do we get companies to snag these projects?!
CTE signing day! Recognizing our Railers for their efforts in classes, internships, jobs in the community & plans for using their pathway experiences!
Reflecting, analyzing and planning with K-6 Interventionists! Such a strong group that works to meet the needs of students while working with colleagues to do exactly that!

Always a form of communication to us 💙
We too have the collision of emotions and sensations that create our behaviors! Awareness is enough as we begin to reach beneath our behaviors and wonder! We may not be physically hitting but what are we resisting? Where are our absences? #educators #education
Great way to start the day! 15 rockstar educators attending ASCD National conference! Opening session inspired by powerful message from Dr. Love on how long it’s taking to overcome racism. Share WHO has formed our history to truly have joy & pride of where we’re headed #ASCD24

🤩 Self-regulation is not something #students have or lack—it is something we develop over time, and some of us need targeted instruction to acquire. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Educators #UDL
