Q1) I think mentorship means to be role models and help guide students to become the best version of themselves that they can be. #oklaed

okeducation Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

A2 #oklaed Try to limit the "help" we give them to things that are truly helpful. Maybe ask them what they need

ChrisParadise Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

A2) Notice them. Make sure they aren't drowning, and remember that all drowning victims don't flail around. #OklaEd

docbrown8406 Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

A2: as a preservice I can tell you I'm scared to death for placement. Only because I want to do my best. Hope it's hit not miss #oklaed

djthoreson Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

A2: We could gt them in "live" classrooms more - even if just a day here, another there, to see more real Ts in action #oklaed

kennethdward Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

A2 by ensuring as leaders we have created a welcoming supportive atmosphere that new T's want to be part of. #oklaed

vperezy Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

As alt cert, I wouldn't have survived my 1st year WITHOUT many, many mentors -assigned and otherwise #oklaed https://t.co/zsD6spMewq

mcappsparks Mar 6 @ 9:13 PM EST

A2. Alt certified, so no expert. Maybe visiting their classes? Encouraging former students who are Ed majors to visit informally? #oklaed

I wish pre-service Ts were paired with a T from the beginning of college. The T could involve them in all PD, and field trips, etc. #oklaed

cdhollman2 Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

A2) As a preservice teacher, I loved being at #EdcampOKC yesterday and feel I would benefit from attending more of them. #oklaed

DrTerriOU Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

Griffin1Chad Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

A2) Don't just explain what you're doing... Explain why and how. #oklaed

James409Jason Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

@bethiejq No one says we have to box them in, we should simply give them specific tools for their toolbox #oklaed

joy4ok Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

We can engage the pre-service teacher by including in #OklaEd chats, and learning together at #Edcamp too! https://t.co/uowP12OYhM

meghanloyd Mar 6 @ 9:14 PM EST

@docbrown8406 don't be! I felt the same way! You have a community of #oklaed behind you!

KristinAtchley Mar 6 @ 9:15 PM EST

A2: Ask them Qs they probably hadn’t thought about to get them thinking in a direction outside of college. #oklaed

JonnyCurriculum Mar 6 @ 9:15 PM EST

A2: It also helps to get into some real talk. “This is what you think… now let me tell you what the truth is” #oklaed

erickavan13 Mar 6 @ 9:15 PM EST

A1) Mentoring is reflecting on your own practice in the classroom and sharing your successes with a new educator. #oklaed

drewprice11 Mar 6 @ 9:15 PM EST

a2: Maybe schedule a chat where preservice teachers develop their own FAQ's and #oklaed attempts to answer them.

JBlackshare Mar 6 @ 9:15 PM EST

We need to help new teachers understand that it is ok to try and fail... like we teach kids #oklaed #growthmindset https://t.co/TCZXsvot4I
