A1: May not have been biggest fail, but was a big lesson. Do what is best for your Ss in the moment. Read the room, adjust #mdusdchat

A1b: At first they sat silent. Then they asked questions: "De los animales?" or "En serio?" Then, "COMO mierda or DE mierda"? #mdusdchat

MrsWard3 - Moderator Mar 7 @ 11:12 PM EST

A2: When we look at Ss it feels like so much is constantly at stake that it can be tough to take the risk. #MDUSDChat

ShaunaHawes Mar 7 @ 11:12 PM EST

A2: I spend time discussing the fails with Ss, and that convo builds a sense of safety for Ss to try and fail & succeed. #mdusdchat

MsDell201 Mar 7 @ 11:12 PM EST

A2: failure feel like looking foolish. It's easier if we view it as risk taking (that may not work) rather than a fail. #mdusdchat

4mosss Mar 7 @ 11:13 PM EST

A2: afraid to fail bc we fear being different. Overcome by working on areas of growth, by self reflection or reach out to others #mdusdchat

A2 Getting away from T knowing all is uncomfortable, but try it! Your kids will love you for being real! Things don't always work!#mdusdchat

craigyen - Moderator Mar 7 @ 11:13 PM EST

A2) We are programmed for success and thus afraid to fail. Need to learn from our failures #MDUSDchat

MsDell201 Mar 7 @ 11:13 PM EST

A2: creating a school culture that celebrates aiming high over a safe bet makes failing seem like learning, not failing. #mdusdchat

A1c: At some point I realized the mistake I'd made! I wasn't saying "wood" I was saying "sh#t" I was 100% sure I'd be fired. #mdusdchat

alison_wilkey Mar 7 @ 11:15 PM EST

I think we focus less than we should on the success that is trying. I'm trying to remember to praise the work, not the outcome. #mdusdchat
