A4) Stop "sit and get" parent nights. Sends the opposite message. Parents can be allies if you demonstrate what you'd like. #EduGladiators

A3. Shift learning from being teacher-centered to learner-centered. Graphic shares shifts. #eduGladiators

A3 give fewer grades, offer revisions, don't grade peripheral things, don't penalize extra time on work #edugladiators
