amythuesen Aug 7 @ 8:05 PM EDT

@PrincipalFrench Sometimes it's what you don't do that's the most reinvigorating! #mnlead Good for you! I've been unplugging also.

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:05 PM EDT

@bretdom WOW! That is awesome! #mnlead

froehlichm Aug 7 @ 8:05 PM EDT

Hi #mnlead Rita from just across the boarder in St. Croix Falls, WI =parts work & play this summer

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:06 PM EDT

Q1. How do teacher:student relationships impact learning? #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:06 PM EDT

@ritaplatt Welcome Rita! #mnlead

teacherjean55 Aug 7 @ 8:07 PM EDT

A1) Relationships are at the heart of the learning process. They cause us to work harder or shut down. #mnlead

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:07 PM EDT

A1. I think relationships are KEY! Without them students are less engaged......usually! #mnlead

rrv_mary Aug 7 @ 8:07 PM EDT

A1) I believe relationships build trust. Trust is the essential component for S to want to engage! Can't teach w/o it! #mnlead

PrincipalFrench Aug 7 @ 8:07 PM EDT

A1) Students won't care how much you know until they know how much you care. Stolen from Teddy Roosevelt. #mnlead

ritaplatt Aug 7 @ 8:07 PM EDT

This. Relationships are the foundation for learning. #mnlead https://t.co/BYveuE45iy

Principal_EL Aug 6 @ 7:27 AM EDT

If you don't love a child...it will be very difficult to teach them anything! #Satchat #Sunchat https://t.co/zIcpfcCcmP

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:07 PM EDT

@teacherjean55 How so? What is it about a relationship that makes you work harder? #mnlead

SupAnger Aug 7 @ 8:08 PM EDT

A1) No significant learning without significant relationships, Building Relationships is Pillar #1 in the ZM BRIDGE Philosophy #mnlead

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:08 PM EDT

Wow! This speaks volumes! Love it for the upcoming year! #mnlead https://t.co/TNQdayTFGt

PrincipalFrench Aug 7 @ 8:07 PM EDT

A1) Students won't care how much you know until they know how much you care. Stolen from Teddy Roosevelt. #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:08 PM EDT

@SupAnger I LOVE that you have made it a pillar in your district! #mnlead

bretdom - Moderator Aug 7 @ 8:09 PM EDT

A1 What's the saying, "With relationships, all things are possible. Without relationships, nothing is possible." Ok I made that up. #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:09 PM EDT

A1) I think relationships help build trust - but also really helps us to get to know our students and their interests. #mnlead

JonHeeren Aug 7 @ 8:09 PM EDT

A1) how do they not? If u don’t have a good working relationship with an S, you’re in a hole. #mnlead

SteeleThoughts Aug 7 @ 8:09 PM EDT

A1: You can compel their attendance, but learning is voluntary. Teachers MUST make a connection. #mnlead

teacherjean55 Aug 7 @ 8:09 PM EDT

@jenhegna If you have a relationship with your students they will trust you and that will lead to more risk taking and engagment. #mnlead

rrv_mary Aug 7 @ 8:09 PM EDT

@bretdom But it is so true! Sounds like it needs to be a poster on my door! #mnlead

froehlichm Aug 7 @ 8:10 PM EDT

A1 Needs to be trust btwn Ss & Ts. If there's no trust, there is no relationship & everything is based on relationships we cultivate #mnlead

amythuesen Aug 7 @ 8:10 PM EDT

A1) Ts and Ss need to both teach and learn together. Without relationship strength, the links for each are broken. #mnlead

Rmoreland1317 Aug 7 @ 8:10 PM EDT

A1: I think it should be 1st priority. IF all students felt cared for in EVERY class results would be incredible #mnlead

amythuesen Aug 7 @ 8:11 PM EDT

@froehlichm Trust is key...and it takes time and work to develop. Sometimes difficult to do in just a semester or one year. #mnlead

SteeleThoughts Aug 7 @ 8:11 PM EDT

A1: Connecting with kids starts at the door! #mnlead https://t.co/Y8fi5KpeBv

rrv_mary Aug 7 @ 8:11 PM EDT

@Rmoreland1317 Love that you said "1st Priority." It is what makes everything else more successful!. #mnlead

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:11 PM EDT

@Rmoreland1317 I think you bring up an awesome point! Giving Ss a little time and interest goes a long way! #mnlead

JonHeeren Aug 7 @ 8:11 PM EDT

@SupAnger well said! #mnlead

Rmoreland1317 Aug 7 @ 8:11 PM EDT

I'm looking for articles/resources about the negative impact of yelling at/embarrassing S's #mnlead

froehlichm Aug 7 @ 8:11 PM EDT

@amythuesen Agreed. Especially with kiddos (big & small) that have trust issues to begin with. A year might not be enough. #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:12 PM EDT

Q2. What are your “Day 1" strategies/activities to build positive relationships with your students? How about the whole year? #mnlead

bbray27 Aug 7 @ 8:12 PM EDT

Hi #mnlead! Just jumping in from California. Just back from family vacation and saw your chat! Love discussing importance of relationships

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:12 PM EDT

A2. New position this year but I hope to be in the halls as much as possible on day one, especially during morning arrival! #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:13 PM EDT

@ACook_FACS Congrats on your new position! What is it? #mnlead

rrv_mary Aug 7 @ 8:13 PM EDT

A2) Its all about the "Bs." Be present, be visible, be a listener!. This starts on day 1! #mnlead

JonHeeren Aug 7 @ 8:13 PM EDT

A2) the first day I have the students do a test asking them all sorts of things to get to know them. #mnlead it’s funny what some say.

mcarlstromDR Aug 7 @ 8:13 PM EDT

#mnlead Late to the party playing with the dogs in the yard… Matt from @DeerRiverISD317 S.S. Dept. Chair…Coach etc, etc, etc. Happy 2 B here

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:13 PM EDT

A2. Cont. Throughout the year I want to continue to connect with Ss in large groups, small groups, and individual work! #mnlead

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:14 PM EDT

@jenhegna I am moving to the MS/HS Counselor position in Luverne! #mnlead

bbray27 Aug 7 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A2 Day one needs to be at least 1st 2 weeks to build relationships based on #trust & #respect -- focus on culture building #mnlead

Rmoreland1317 Aug 7 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A2: As the supt I want to be in all 3 buildings and simply be visible to S's #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A2) Heard about idea in classroom called "identity day" where students have opportunities to share their interests and passions #mnlead

mcarlstromDR Aug 7 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A1 W/O T-S relationships, there is no learning. The old saw “They don’t care what you know until they know you care” is crazy true! #mnlead

teacherjean55 Aug 7 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A2) I plan attend student events, visit with students in the hallways and just enjoy my students as people. #mnlead

SupAnger Aug 7 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A2) I love the idea of "all hands on deck" the first week-get as many of our staff in classrooms w Ss as possible #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A2) My dream for next year - is to have opportunity to visit every classroom in the district! #mnlead

PrincipalFrench Aug 7 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2) Day 1 - greet out front, visit classes, read to classes, play on playground, eat in cafeteria, say goodbye out front. Repeat #mnlead

ritaplatt Aug 7 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2: NEVER be too busy to smile at and chat w/ sts & trs. They are NOT interruptions to our work, they are our work! #mnlead

amythuesen Aug 7 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2) Simple conversations to formal surveys; "How do you learn? What do you want to learn? What are you interested in?" #mnlead

mcarlstromDR Aug 7 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A1.2 My HS has made it a goal for every S to have a T they connect with. We track it. It’s Great! #mnlead

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@ritaplatt Yes! A simple "Hello, how are you?" in the hallways goes a long way for Ss. #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@amythuesen I like that! Learning about the students (beyond test scores/grades) can make for some engaging lessons! #mnlead

froehlichm Aug 7 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A2 My plan is to be present. Chat & laugh w/ Ss & Ts. I have nothing more important to do that day than begin to build relationships #mnlead

ritaplatt Aug 7 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A2: Eat in the lunchroom often, tell jokes, ask kids about their lives, give hugs, call parents #mnlead

rrv_mary Aug 7 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A2) Saw on another chat the challenge to NOT do rules on day 1. rather build excitement for learning! Show passion! #mnlead

bbray27 Aug 7 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A2 - get to know each child - how unique they are - ask them to write how they learn best - build in time for sharing stories #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@ritaplatt How often do you call parents? #mnlead

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:16 PM EDT

@mcarlstromDR Very cool! Can you give more information on how you do this? #mnlead

SteeleThoughts Aug 7 @ 8:17 PM EDT

A2: Ditch the rules and syllabus on the first day! #mnlead https://t.co/uPE8mGwEYg

Jennifer_Hogan Aug 1 @ 9:35 AM EDT

Today is August 1. For us, that means back to school this month! How will you build relationships this year? https://t.co/luHOZKVSSP

mcarlstromDR Aug 7 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A1.2 My HS has made it a goal for every S to have a T they connect with. We track it. It’s Great! #mnlead

amythuesen Aug 7 @ 8:17 PM EDT

@jenhegna Great goal...but daunting I'm sure! #mnlead I'm sure Ts and Ss will appreciate it though.

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:17 PM EDT

A2. I also plan to meet with each senior 1 on 1 to start the year to help them look and play ahead for the year! #mnlead

mcarlstromDR Aug 7 @ 8:17 PM EDT

@jenhegna What Grade level? #mnlead

teacherjean55 Aug 7 @ 8:18 PM EDT

@mcarlstromDR Love this Matt! Can you give me a little background on what it entails and how you track it. #mnlead

ritaplatt Aug 7 @ 8:18 PM EDT

@jenhegna #mnlead I call at least 2 families a week. I SHOULD call at least 5.

bbray27 Aug 7 @ 8:18 PM EDT

A2 build relationships w families, community, businesses - encourage Ss to reach out for partnerships in and beyond school #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:18 PM EDT

@mcarlstromDR I am not sure - thinking elementary but it could go higher too! #mnlead

mcarlstromDR Aug 7 @ 8:18 PM EDT

A2) I’m having a discussion with all classes 8-12 about “Grit” and Perseverance. #mnlead

amythuesen Aug 7 @ 8:18 PM EDT

@rrv_mary I stopped doing this a while back...made a big difference in setting stage for year. #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:18 PM EDT

Q3 coming up! #mnlead

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:18 PM EDT

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:19 PM EDT

@mcarlstromDR We had a class last year spend a WEEK around mindset and building relationships! #mnlead

froehlichm Aug 7 @ 8:19 PM EDT

@rrv_mary Saw @DonWettrick speak & he said rules day 1 squash any excitement for learning when you're saying no, no, no. So true #mnlead

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:19 PM EDT

@rrv_mary did this last year! Team building and getting to know each other day one! Kids loved it! #mnlead

moravec Aug 7 @ 8:19 PM EDT

A2: it's all about building trust, which starts day one #mnlead

bbray27 Aug 7 @ 8:19 PM EDT

A2 At MS where I was a coach, Ts visited homes - built communication plans w each family - this was in high poverty areas - amazing! #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:20 PM EDT

Q3. What strategies do you use to help students build relationships with each other? #mnlead

MiniMatisse Aug 7 @ 8:20 PM EDT

PrincipalFrench Aug 7 @ 8:20 PM EDT

A2) I'll also be continuing my #GoodNewsCallOfTheDay phone class! #mnlead

mcarlstromDR Aug 7 @ 8:20 PM EDT

@jenhegna I’ll be working on the Growth Mindset all year… It’s too important to assume it’s either there or it isn’t. #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:20 PM EDT

@ritaplatt Sounds like a GREAT goal for 16-17! :) #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:20 PM EDT

@MiniMatisse @isd728 Welcome Nic! Glad you could make it! #mnlead

@jenhegna @mcarlstromDR Mindset needs to be taught. Love the @ClassDojo #growthmindset videos they have for the littles. #mnlead

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:21 PM EDT

A3. Students build a notecard tower, competition for the tallest! On the notecards had to write things they had in common! #mnlead

mcarlstromDR Aug 7 @ 8:21 PM EDT

@teacherjean55 We’re a smaller building, but we put each kids name on a Post It, put all of them up on the Wall in the Media Center #mnlead

swanie325 Aug 7 @ 8:22 PM EDT

A1) Learning doesn't happen without relationship. Make connection by telling your story. It helps to laugh also. #mnlead

amythuesen Aug 7 @ 8:22 PM EDT

@ACook_FACS Love this. Both team-building and problem-solving. Love that it gets them thinking on 1st day, but not nec. about class #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:22 PM EDT

@JessicaCabeen Welcome Jessica! We are just talking about relationships in the classroom! How to build student:student #mnlead

froehlichm Aug 7 @ 8:22 PM EDT

@mcarlstromDR @jenhegna Yes. Things we expect Ss to know to do & we nvr teach them: reflection, growth mindset, evaluate own work...#mnlead

bbray27 Aug 7 @ 8:22 PM EDT

A3 Ss share & connect with others with similar interests, talents, aspirations. Ask them to develop proposal for PBL around interest #mnlead

ritaplatt Aug 7 @ 8:22 PM EDT

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:23 PM EDT

@swanie325 Great to have you Richard! You certainly will have great things to contribute! #mnlead

rrv_mary Aug 7 @ 8:23 PM EDT

@ritaplatt @rrv_mary Not sure? #mnlead

ACook_FACS Aug 7 @ 8:23 PM EDT

@amythuesen They are so funny with it! I should add no tape, string or extras! All freestanding! They are very creative! #mnlead

swanie325 Aug 7 @ 8:23 PM EDT

A2) Get every voice in the room. Kids love telling their stories also. #mnlead

bbray27 Aug 7 @ 8:24 PM EDT

A3)I think this looks differently in Elem v. HS & Rural v. Urban. In DRHS, they already know each very well. But groups/turn & talk #mnlead

SupAnger Aug 7 @ 8:24 PM EDT

A3) Modeling things like service learning and recognition encourages giving of ourselves which builds relationships #mnlead

ritaplatt Aug 7 @ 8:24 PM EDT

A3 When kids have fun they get along together for the most part. Key it to keep them busy and happy! #mnlead

jenhegna Aug 7 @ 8:25 PM EDT

mcarlstromDR Aug 7 @ 8:25 PM EDT
