"Communicate peer reading recommendations: Peer book recommendations are among the best ways to get adolescents reading" = Kaye Newton. That's why students recommend books to one another and share their reading reviews in #MoxieReader#yalit#reading#edtech#edchat
Research shows that low-income students make up just 3% of the #students that attend America's most selective colleges. Universities are beginning to take note + working toward turning that #stat around. #edchat via @npr_edhttps://t.co/mvGmIIagzj
#MIEExpert@PaphitisN shares his experience using #OneNote to design an adaptive learning lesson. Read how he kept each student challenged, and engaged, and why he truly believes adaptive learning “is the way forward.” https://t.co/30urZxOJXP#edchat
Perseversence is a part of all my students' vocabulary. At least in my classroom. What's one word you teach your students to live by? #k12#edchat#teaching
Ss using #VRed to learn character traits by turning the various personalities in the Slingshot experience into characters in a story, collecting enough evidence to prove their characterization. #scsed#nced#tlap#ncdlcn#edchat@foundry10Ed
Unfortunately, society has to be reminded of all the effort (and failure) that results in a victory. Therefore, it's important to remind students that they have permission to learn from their mistakes. #BlackMaleEducators#MOedchat#edchat#leadupchat
New research suggests that encouraging young children to continue counting with their fingers can boost math learning - especially when paired with number games. Read more via @edutopia: https://t.co/dT48eb0FCk#edchat#research#education
A2 "Over-controlled" behaviors are the result of the #child directing feelings inwardly so that the child experiences #depression, #anxiety or low #selfesteem. The child often is described as being shy/withdrawn and is easily overlooked in the #classroom. #NTIChat#FASD#edchat
Developing Readers
For a variety of reasons are not rdg at gr level & do not see themselves as rdrs. Receive rding intervention supports but seldom participate in real rding experiences. “The Matthew effect” From: Miller,D. The Book Whisperer, 2009. #edchat
Dormant Readers
Unmotivated and uninterested in reading. Read to do well in school. Do not see reading as a worthwhile experience outside of school. Run the risk of falling behind students who read more. From: Miller,D. The Book Whisperer, 2009. #edchat
My top 3 mottos as a new educator:
➡️If you're fair with me, I'm fair with you.
➡️Make good choices.
➡️Persevering is more rewarding than giving up.

Just this morning, I've had my 8th graders tell me Hawaii is a country, we should have an ambassador to Paris and Asia, and that our Secretary of State is Mike Pence. So, yeah....lets keep pushing those "soft skills" in school and sacrifice content knowledge. Smh... #edchat
A4 Physical & social environment, differing expectations/values.bias There is so much to consider it can be bewildering 4 parents& teachers. You need to constantly be an amateur detective / cultural anthropologist / sociologist & medical Dr. #ntichat#FASD#edchat
“These talented and asset-rich—and largely U.S.-citizen—students are being terrorized in a way that can only lead to alienation. Perhaps even worse, it is a squandering of human potential that has historically been the lifeblood of this nation.” #equity#K-12 #edchat
1 in 4 US children have immigrant parents, but 90% were born in the US. "They're our kids. They're our citizens. They're our responsibility. They're our future." @LPI_learning's latest blog post by Patricia Gándara of @uclagseishttps://t.co/kdR4MkRzXG
How do you prepare to solve a problem - that no one has solved before?
See how #WaldorfEducation is evolving to create scientists capable of asking and answering questions that are not yet known. #EdChat#sciencehttps://t.co/cwKdZ6w3Dg
A5 It’s been my experience - understanding cause (or complex web of contributing causes) is essential to designing an intervention that helps improve things vs making them worse. Oh and to avoiding starting up whole new issues that you never anticipated!! #NTIChat#FASD#edchat
What a great message for students to internalize! They focus so much on their mistakes, and sometimes the school culture perpetuates this. Teachers must see that students realize their successes as well. #STEM#edchat#PBL#cpchat
If you did 50 things right today and made one mistake, what's likely to stand out to you? Don't let your mistake(s) define your day. You work in a challenging profession and make hundreds of decisions every day. I’d say you’re doing great!
Hallelujah! @JoshuaPStarr gets it right re the new push for "personalized learning." One addition: over-reliance on software to "know" our students can never replace strong relationships with caring adults/teachers. https://t.co/wFTHSZskrt
"What if we #empowered Ss with the idea that they can drive next time? The world is filled with passengers. We need more drivers. We need people who see that their role in a community is to serve that community." @TallTalTeaches#StuVoice#edchat#pypchat
“Let’s get intentional with setting kids up with the mindset that they have a role in their community.” Something to think about and put into practice. #AISMLearns#studentagency@TallTalTeaches
We want to start a recording studio at my middle school, mostly for #podcasts. Can someone help with what is needed for resources, or tips? Any local community contacts? #EdChat#EdTech#edtechchat@rchallway
