#Edchat is a hashtag, a movement—it is a weekly organized Twitter discussion of educators and people interested in education that meet virtually from all over the world. #Edchat serves as a conversation thread on Twitter and is also used for organized weekly discussions.
An essential step in ending the struggle with a language-based learning disability is to help the #child heal from the trauma of school-related failure.

Did you know over the summer holidays children can lose up to 8 weeks progress in their maths and English? Doing just 2 hours a week of a tailored programme like hours can keep all that great knowledge going. #edchat#edchatuk

Combining the arts + sciences in student activities, taking note of multiple intelligence; clearly there are many different ways to teach than classroom lecture & many different ways to assess than just a final exam. Education surely needs reform! #HowardGardner#edchat#ed103
I love this. Students need to be motivated from the beginning of school. So often they come in and we just tell them what not to do and how to do things. We should start by telling them how important, loved and special they are to keep them motivated! #edchat
Reflection is such an important part of having an innovative classroom. As an educator, I think on of the most important characteristics of a teacher is the ability to reflect. #edchathttps://t.co/iZMhlwgzrM
These apps, especially CBeebies would be perfect as a workstation to build up comprehension and fluency. I would love to try it in my classroom. It reminds me a lot of the stories on Starfall. #edchat
Very interesting/helpful chart. It's important to remember to include all DOK levels. 1 and 2 are just as important as 3 and 4 in effective literacy teaching! #edchat
In this video, Phil Daro compares a math classroom in the United States with one in Japan. He highlights some "tricks" taught in U.S. classrooms that are great at “answer-getting” but that do not enforce mathematical reasoning.

Yes! It is so important for students to know that we love and care about them before we begin teaching. The more we encourage and motivate our students, the more successful they will be in our classrooms. #edchat
I liked this chart too! All of the levels are important! I think it is so important that our students are not only comprehending what they are reading, but also that they are thinking on a deeper level. #edchat
I love 21-25! We must make sure we are preparing our students to live and work in the future! We must allow them to be creative and implement problem-solving strategies. Technology is growing as well which students need to be able to use effectively. #edchat
Stone cold teacher fact. Kids listen to what you say & will remember some of your words for the rest of their lives. When you see them years later, & they tell you about your words, will you be proud or embarrassed? #TeacherLife#TLAP#LeadLAP#EdLeadership#edchat#teachers

Always looking for things to do differently! The 21st century learning skills are so important and are often pushed aside for more curriculum-based instruction! Perfect things to start at the beginning of the year. #edchat
I agree conceptual understanding is so important to teach at a young age! At our school we have conceptual math time where we tie in what we're learning to the real world. This helps students to problem solve and understand why we're learning these topics. #edchat#mathchat

Conceptual understanding is key! Students are much more likely to remember concepts if they can relate it to their own life or things they have previously experienced. #edchat
Couldn't agree more! My favorite times also include waiting in the bus line with them, recess, and in the library looking for books. Lots of opportunities to get to know students if you know when and where to look. #formativechat#edtech#edchat#leadupchat#KidsDeserveIt
Using data provides so much information about what our students need and how we can get them there. I am constantly assessing my students formally and informally and using that to group my students and plan their small group lessons. #edchat
I endorse the growth mindset, but we need more research on how it's impacting the lowest performers. "[T]he best students got even better [using] growth mindset. For the lowest-performing students, it did not improve performance." #growthmindset#edchathttps://t.co/VYoG9EFbbt
I LOVE using these 5 strategies with my students. Collaborative learning or turn and talk gets students truly engaged in their reading. Read-alouds are also an effective approach which can be shown through modeling. #edchat
A huge thank you to @MWteaches for making all of her golden materials available!!! I don’t know what I’m going to do without you!?! #huesnews#grade5#edchat
I really enjoyed reading this study. I agree we need to remember that all students will learn in different ways and not always at the same pace as their peers. I think if we continue to differentiate our instruction we can still motivate and encourage all students. #edchat
Too much time "is currently being spent on teaching children formal comprehension strategies like predicting, classifying, and looking for the main idea." Teach them briefly at the beginning and move on. https://t.co/woXZ1yncDm#edchat#bctela#bcedchat#bclearns
"Learning doesn’t happen without relationships. One way we can deepen our relationships with students is to share a bit about ourselves with them, and create opportunities for them to share with us—and each other." @edutopiahttps://t.co/T3FaW8i1oD#edchat
