Every day when I arrive at school I can't help but notice how amazing our school looks. Our custodians do incredible work to get our building ready for school EVERY day! I appreciate their work! @CardiffColts @KatyISDMandO @Ted_Vierling

The culture of a school is created by everyone in the school. Walk in a school and see how the front office staff talks and interacts or the staff /teachers in the hallway. Yes the admin influences it but everyone is ultimately responsible for a positive school culture.

New teachers, Explicit Instruction by Anita Archer is fantastic! Chapter 6 on Organizing for Instruction would have been VERY useful during my first year teaching (situations possibly needing a classroom routine and procedure). As she says, β€œPredictably predicts ability.”

THIS!!
The ONLY instructional strategy with a NEGATIVE effect size: Lecturing. -0.26 or 1/2 a year's loss Why? It's passive. There's no room for engagement or interaction necessary for deep understanding & skill development. Just a lot of one person talking.

School culture is not created by a mission statement on a wall, but it is created and lived out daily by everyone in the school building.

Building relationships w/ students is not about being their friend, but it is about being a mentor, caring for them, and wanting them to become their best self. Its guiding them to reach their full potential and fostering a positive learning environment #Relationshipsbeforerigor

This is your reminder that school administrators are human, too. WHEN they get it wrong, which they will, please be ready to show them the same grace you would want to receive.

My lesson plans are my guide. My lesson plans are NOT some assignment I will complete to fit some nonsensical guidelines set by someone not teaching my students in my classroom.

We make an assumption that junior high students are adults more often than we realize as educators. Students need our help figuring out skills beyond our curriculum. Remember it’s part of our job too!
