    Also for admin-schedule like classes together, encourage co-teaching & daily collaboration btw like classes, share the work #satchat
    • audhilly Jan 28 @ 8:26 AM EST
      A6 for admins: design features... block scheduling, smaller class size, open space, adaptable seating, fewer interruptions, #satchat
  • engineerteacher Jan 28 @ 8:28 AM EST
    Yes! This tool from Covey is something I've used for years to ensure the main thing stays the main thing. Every day. #satchat

    What if we transform ourselves so that the comfort zone circle intersects with a magic circle? #Satchat
  • phhscience Jan 28 @ 8:29 AM EST
    Co taught classes take much longer to teach a concept than my reg class #satchat
  • TheDisciplineDr Jan 28 @ 8:29 AM EST
    Yes. Doesn't even have to be anything formal or scheduled. Just write things down that work.. #satchat

    Visiting Ts could write 2 sentences about what they learned & observed. Use G Form where responses are open to all #satchat

  • MrRussoRH Jan 28 @ 8:29 AM EST
    agreed! I've always hoped that Ts, A's...anyone would create #PLCs on their own. I think that's happening with PLNs☺️ #satchat

    Very true... They often just need to be heard. Listening definitely helps to get a pulse of Ts hearts #satchat

  • RickJetter Jan 28 @ 8:29 AM EST
    Absolutely. Even asking Ss what they need during classtime can help to redirect what you might think they need. #satchat

    And you bring up a good point. The "state" sometimes gets "blamed" when districts aren't sure what else they can do. #satchat
