weknowteaching Jan 25 @ 7:23 PM EST

#formativechat A2 S discipline, teaching time expectation, grading. So much dialogue needs to occur to have a successful partnership

davidwkwan - Moderator Jan 25 @ 7:23 PM EST

@Mike_Bruckner True, more than just norming grading, you need to work together to make assessments that make sense for all Ss #formativechat

jennrivera2011 Jan 25 @ 7:23 PM EST

Listen to their reasons. Be vulnerable. "I'm not sure this will work, but here's why I think it may." #formativechat https://t.co/T7wvtk9TxM

A3 #formativechat When issues occur have solutions in mind when you discuss them keep cool start w something pos about the situation 1st

MarkChubb3 Jan 25 @ 7:25 PM EST

@KevinRMcFarland Data does help guide discussion, then hopefully the process can be established mutually. #formativechat

slm12 Jan 25 @ 7:48 PM EST

A6: My door is open to anyone that wants to come in. I wish I had time to observe others. #formativechat

davidwkwan - Moderator Jan 25 @ 7:48 PM EST

@kispypniko that being said, I wonder how that will work for them. It makes sense #formativechat

MrPRichey Jan 25 @ 7:49 PM EST

A6: Love people coming in! I am loud and passionate and want my excitement to make others want to see what we are learning! #formativechat
