I always allow my students to finish.
Middle school math teachers: if a kid doesn’t finish a math test in one period should they be allowed to have extra time? I would vote for yes but I have never worked in a school where this is an acceptable practice. I wanted to hear what other teachers do! #mtbos

The Pike County Road Department has deemed all county roads impassable until they are inspected. As such, it will not be possible to have school on Thursday, Sept 17th. School will resume on Friday, Sept 18th.

I love the districts who are putting teachers first. They are not micromanaging them. Trusting them to reach out to their students & letting them take care of their own families first & checking in on their health. These districts rock & your teachers love you for it & so do I!
Q2 I spend a lot of time working with 6 th graders social relationships with their peers. As far as agency, we reflect and goal set daily requiring responsibility for their own learning. #MasteryChat
Q1. SEL is providing students a safe learning environment! I know there’s more and that’s why I’m here! #MasteryChat

Q4. The issue is twofold. 1) teachers get offended by change questioning why they aren’t “good enough”. Change in general is hard. People question what isn’t comfortable. #MasteryChat
Q3. Improve my grid in math and implement the grid in writing. Do more with our house system! #MasteryChat
Q1 A respect for teachers and learning. When I got in trouble at school it was double at home. #MasteryChat
