A1 Great attitude, never give up, never feel like a task is to tough, try everything to the best of your ability, do one's best.
-
love it. Great description. "Re-commit" that's one I didn't think of right away.
-
A1. Resilience is what we did after an awful math review first thing yesterday morning! Bounced back
-
-
A1 - Resilient Ts and Ss don't give up, even when going gets tough, keep on trying, changing strategies as needed, & stay positive

-
How do you see thinking differently and resiliency being tied together?
-
is excited to have guest moderating tonight
-
A1: Resiliency in Ts - find your zen. Remember to take care of yourself.
-
resilient teachers make the day about their students no matter what challenges come from the outside
-
-
Can someone be resilient without being positive?
-
A1; Resilient educators see failure as an opportunity to grow and reflect from mistakes. Great model for kids.
-
A1 Chalk "failure" up to experience, try try again and again, until success is on the horizon or surpassed.
-
How did you exhibit resiliency?
-
-
A1: Approaching every situation with the "what is the BEST that could happen"
-
-
A1. Resilient educators have optimism, altruism and a compass to learn and grow.
-
yes! There is some risk taking when it comes to .
-
The willingness to take risks is key to exhibiting resiliency!
-
I asked the Ss, can we turn this day around. They did
-
A1: Resilient learners, regardless of age, embrace a growth mindset. As Carol Dweck explained, they believe in the power of "yet."

-
Failures = shared experiences and opportunities to learn from
-
A1: You must be willing to fail UP and not be frightened to lead. Not everyone will agree with change and it won't always work
-
"Failure as Opportunity" https://t.co/Qt4swlQvBu
-
-
A1; Resilient educators see failure as an opportunity to grow and reflect from mistakes. Great model for kids.
-
-
yes! With authentic learning students need to use inquiry and application to push through failure to succeed!
-
-
This---> the power of "yet" https://t.co/dP4mffLZAy
-
-
A1: Resilient learners, regardless of age, embrace a growth mindset. As Carol Dweck explained, they believe in the power of "yet."

-
A1- Resilient T's & S's work through challenges and see challenges as motivation to keep trying. They don't expect immediate success.
-
kids do as we do not as we say! They will model Ts learning!
-
How do you help learners build that network?
-
Hi Sarah! Thanks for swinging by to the Nutmeg State =
-
resilient educators need courage- crazy amounts- to try again and again
-
A1 Instilling resiliency in your students is key for them to grow as a learner. A difficult but achievable task/skill.
-
I don't think so. Negative attitude usually keeps Ts and Ss from trying again.
-
Resilient educators try again, maybe a little differently.
-
success take times. Resilient teachers recognize this. Great model for kids to see us growing, too.
-
How do you help others learn to fai up?

resilient students find the desire to learn,grow, and broaden their horizons....even when we as educators sometimes get in their way

Need support to build Resilience. https://t.co/kl0ku6UYLJ

-
A1: Currently obsessed with the quote: "F.A.I.L = First Attempt In Learning." All about growing resiliency through growth mindset.
-
That is impo b/c resilient Ts have a tendency to work very hard.
-
admin needs to make it a safe environment to take those risks. That's the key! Permission to try!
-
Failures: "SHARED OPPORTUNITIES" https://t.co/DAE5LpjHhD
-
-
Failures = shared experiences and opportunities to learn from
-
We are resilient when we believe the work we are doing matters to us and to others. Purpose in learing.
-
no doubt about it. Eyes are always watching. We must model a growth mindset and resilience.
-
So, do we need to avoid the failure that is truly catastrophic? Or can we learn from that too?
-
Inquiry - one of my fav words!
-
Next question coming up in 1 minute
-
Resiliency in Ts breeds resiliency in Ss...great role model!
-
A1 Resiliency just like social competencies must be taught and experienced early on. The learner whether teacher or student succeeds

-
-
A1: resilient learners strive for improvement, embrace challenge and hard work, & truly embrace a
-
A1: A Willingness to find a way out of the quagmire. We can try and fail but never fail to try

Thinking differently allows you to keep going perhaps in a new direction that is unexpected or not traditional.
-
think it starts by providing opportunity-safe space 2 discuss issues-this has to be part of any curriculum https://t.co/1UGxlcFUhS
-
-
How do you help learners build that network?
-
love this...especially the altruism. 👌🏼
-
A1 resilient educators don't give up on students who have given up.
-
The challenge is always welcomed. Look at life as a puzzle that needs to be put together.
-
-
-
Velia joining in for a little, working on exporting data from a survey
-
Q2: Give an example of an experience & how resilience helped your students/school overcome.
-
fail within limits! Hahaha
-
Yes. The courage to go out on a limb, to try new things, to be willing to "make a fool" of yourself. . .
-
we need to model and guide to resiliency for our Ss when needed. I don't think it comes automatically, especially for younger Ss.
-
I like your responses... keep that word "students" in there. That's why we do what we do.
-
-
A1 Resiliency in a school community for everyone who has a stake in it is key to the success of it.
-
Yes. That different thinking helps us see the world through different colored lenses!
-
Resiliency leads to problem solving, deeper thinking and questioning.
-
A2 I was resilience when I learned I had to move grade 2 weeks before school started and I was only in that grade for 3 years.
-
Do read The Zen Teacher. Paths to resiliency.
-
A2: My 10th grade Bio S's in 2010 struggled w/ my inquiry instruction vs. state assessment. Resilience = 18 of 22 S's At-Goal
-
Nice response, Ms. Gati!
SMS in the house this evening. https://t.co/idTZXWl7Fo
-
-
A1: Currently obsessed with the quote: "F.A.I.L = First Attempt In Learning." All about growing resiliency through growth mindset.
-
How do we remind ourselves to do this?
-
key is thinking in different ways-when confronted with stress we may need alternative ways to cope https://t.co/koFMm7HCLK
-
-
A1: Resilient educators and students keep trying and don’t give up. They think in different ways to solve problems.
-
I think they go together because often doing the same thing over & over doesn’t work & you need to try something new.
-
according 2 my post-it perception surveys it takes about 5 weeks for a HS class 2be comfortable learning differently.
-
A2: Starting a 5th grade program from the ground up was an amazingly awesome, yet high pressure time for me.
-
thank you for the kind words. I learned that from many mistakes along the way 🤓
-
A2 My #1 experience: finally teaching S with severe dyslexia 1:1. His resiliency is my happiness. Better late than never.
-
problem-solving... yes. Higher-level thinking begins with resilience!
-
Do you use memes to help give feedback to students? How? Share your fav memes! Help me for a future post
-
-
-
I think you just need to promote an atmosphere where failure isn't seen as a negative. Praise any attempts at ingenuity.
-
We use & to help Ss work through their problems, direct their learning.
-
Q2- New standards and higher expectations have added a greater challenge to Ss- AVID Elem has helped our students learn resilience
-
T's at my school are teaching mindfulness in part thru meditation; embrace the moment to make the most of learning opportunities
-
A2: Transitioning to for staff was a challenge. But year 2, and and are just part of the day!
-
A2- Everyday that students and teachers start off the day with a fresh slate even after a tough day the day before shows resilience.
-
I feel my students are resilient every day. We make mistakes, we get better.
-
I love to collect data and analyze it! Shift gears of it doesn't work!
-
Not my classroom, but I appreciate "My Favorite No" https://t.co/P9q1eYlosY Mistakes are validated, credited, respectfully analyzed
-
A2 Anytime in general there is a "tragedy" small or large, a school community rises to help one another, we all know examples.
-
Does anyone have a set of best practices to build resiliency?
-
A2. When Ss are take risks, push themselves. Last year, a S at my school worked on instituting a maker space. Shark Tank proposal.
-
I agree. But, I think we sometimes need failure that is "negative" too. It serves as grounding and makes us dig deep.
-
or even for us adults! So important to model gaining and using resiliency for our students.
-
Resiliency is modelled, and at times, explicitly taught, he benefits are great
-
-
A2: Overcoming challenges happens daily.Teachers are resilient by nature. Meeting the needs of all Ss, both academically & socially.
-
A2 unfortunate to have experienced loss of student at a couple of sites-never easy & key is take time to listen to Ss & families
-
A2: modeling for Ss that lessons transcend the tools we use. Learning happens whether the wireless shuts off, or your pencil breaks.
-
A2: trying to shape a school's culture takes resilience...lots of it ... but each day small gains keep you focused on the goal
-
I think we all have used the word "push" in our responses this evening. This is "good rigor" https://t.co/sJ8VfxsIQ7
-
-
A2. When Ss are take risks, push themselves. Last year, a S at my school worked on instituting a maker space. Shark Tank proposal.
-
A2: economics unit Ss did not bring enough supply of the items were selling - learned fast they needed more product!
-
Right. Must model that have the success of risk-taking is taking it.
-
A2: work w/ readers who struggle--I have 1 girl who works so hard to break the code & it doesn't stop her; always rdg & shrng her bk.
-
Right now, learning that exporting data from a survey on O365 is not as simple as pushing a button,
-
hey Sara and Ann! Great response.
-
that's a tough job. I've seen it first hand. Small incremental changes can and will happen over time.
-
A2: Teams of teachers who trust each other no matter what = resiliency. We got each other's backs.
-
Sometimes resilience is taking a new path: new certification, new course, new school; find supportive and challenging peers
-
A 2 disruptive behavior can interfere with learning; patience & flexibility have led to improved behavior even in extreme cases
-
-
Yes, exactly. And I think it is good have experiences doing that so you have those alternatives ready.
-
Can't forget about school culture.... https://t.co/dVv7B3Qlq5

A2: trying to shape a school's culture takes resilience...lots of it ... but each day small gains keep you focused on the goal

-
-
If you have not read Fish In A Tree by CT's do so..amazing book. Amazing read aloud
-
A benefit of resilience is that it forces us to go it slow. Our world is fast, but change isn't.
-
So many life lessons to discuss!
-
being in Ed tech forces one to be resilient- constant assessment, experimenting, and starting over. Need to be humble to the work.
-
A2 I think about how many times a day Ss gets frustrated trying to work through something & don't give up. Resiliency all day long!
-
-
-
Q2: Give an example of an experience & how resilience helped your students/school overcome.
-
Keep at it! The small gains matter so much! That's what keeps us trying.
-
A2: Difficult student relationships in one classroom for a year. Kept working to structure the day to maintain peace and safety

Today, I had to put the hard stop on a project I've been working on for a month and say,"I need to start over.This won't work as it."
-
60 seconds til the next question.
-
-
I teach ELA and put a huge focus on what you're saying. It's definitely my passion.
-
-
It is hard, but much easier to do it now than do it 5 months from now

A3: Understand that your S's have feelings & that it's OK to express them. Reach out to support staff & teach coping skills.
-
Hello, everyone! Jumping in for a little bit of the chat.
-
-
"small incremental changes" and "grow" key words for sure, Boys.
-
I had someone apologize for an "error" along the way & I thanked them for what I learned. Truly. How else would I have known?
-
A3: give them examples of success show them it possible, be real with them & tell them they may fail but the have to learn from it!
-
Where rigor meets wellness, students are resilient; take care of the whole person; remove what you can that causes permanent defeat
-
what grade level is this Reading program?
-
Takes courage and strength to recognize and start again. Good for you!
-
but great to explain that to Ss too! Teach them to reflect and evaluate their work, decisions, etc

voxer friends -- this is what we were talking about! resilience and kindness for adults & Ss https://t.co/SYzt2okDqE

Model and teach persistence give opportunity- model effort- to learn resilience students need hope

This right here. https://t.co/xqTUGYaPLx

-
A3 in order to promote resilience,the T must model.It's all about have a community of learners who embrace failing forward for growth

Q3- Recognizing hard work & celebrating small steps with reflection matter more than praising the end product- learning is a process
-
A3 back to having time built in to talk about issues-also pull in literature that highlights resilience-allow Ss 2 make connections
-
A3: I once walked juniors who said they couldn't learn that way to another classroom where the freshmen were learning & enjoying it!
-
-
make your thinking visible- good and bad. Suspend judgement. Wonder along with them.
-
"reflect... push... praise... challenge... celebrate" Thanks, Jimmy. I am making a bumper sticker now. https://t.co/DLwAMjXFd4

Our final question is right around the corner.
-
transparency is soooooo important! People are always afraid there is a catch?
-
A3 Showing students that if they set goals/objectives and work toward succeeding hard work will pay off. The smiles abound.
-
Failure and loss do help you resiliency unfortunately.
-
show them that it's ok to fail,to be unsure, to take a risk. Then show them how you get back up again and keep pushing forward.
-
Listen to Ss, know who they are, support . Tell them that and that .Ss will soar
-
absolutely, sir. absolutely.
-
A3: I have found it important to teach students the power of radical honesty. My eval of UR work does not impact our relationship.

This is a great opp for Ss to see Ts as real people as well as engage community members in the convo

It was an absolute pleasure guest moderating this evening's chat. The topic of is my & has personal meaning.

words of wisdom for sure!

A4: yes but only through the environment and experiences offered to Ss.They need to have choice,voice and time to grapple w/thoughts
-
A4: We teach resilience when we are honest and real with Ss. When we fall flat on our face, reflect, and get back on track.
-
A4: You can't teach resiliency, you have to live it. Make risk taking the culture. Make failure an opportunity to learn.
-
I'm ok, I was doing homework- I'm working on my 092!
-
A4. When we don't focus on grades + instead on growth, we build resilience -check out book on teaching Ss to self assess
-
A4: yes! I watch Ts shift their practices everyday & work with those resistant Ss through the shift! Transparency & Relationships!
-
How many times have we seen the word "failure/fail" in this chat-- don't you see it's a good thing.. https://t.co/mZurjw3Blf

-
show them that it's ok to fail,to be unsure, to take a risk. Then show them how you get back up again and keep pushing forward.
-
A4 Challenging S's to own their own success, set goals, and go for them, works so well. A student did 0 pushups pre-test today did 5.
-
A4: u can model, guide, but teach I am not too sure. Maybe it is something you have to go through in order to truly understand.
-
A4.You bet! Make connections, build relationships, inspire Ss to provide service, model how to take breaks and return to task
-
Q4 model it authentically

A4 inquiry-based, project-based, student-centered learning; provide opportunities to problem solve, and then let them solve away

A3: I have found it important to teach students the power of radical honesty. My eval of UR work does not impact our relationship.
-
Amen! Ss are our center and purpose
-
Hey Travis! Welcome. Be sure to follow the recap storify that I will post a little later..
-
Maybe by modeling and guiding and pointing out in literature etc we are really teaching it.
-
Standards-based grading can help Ss discover what went wrong, what went right. That can propel them forward. https://t.co/cNdkyailJc
-
u bring up a good point! Kids respond to proof & data & evidence just like adults do! Use that to teach!
-

A4: You can't teach resiliency, you have to live it. Make risk taking the culture. Make failure an opportunity to learn.

-
YES! they learn best from another-allow space & time for these conversations-these are life skills https://t.co/tkg2Pc7NpK
-
A4: We can model resiliency and teach Ss what it means, but Ts also need to be committed to the whole child.
-
-
Q4- Taking the focus of grading & placing focus on learning helps Ss focus, respond to feedback, and grow learning from mistakes
-
I'm ok with failure as long as student can recover in full- Students need hope
-
-
A4: the first day of programming classes I talk about the importance of failure and perserverence as a part of learning.
-
YES! YES! It's not about grades. It's about the process of learning. I wish more teachers thought like this.
-
Students can inspire you too as an educator and person. Many do amazing things.
