Q2 #NGSSchat https://t.co/KMQWIEcvRS

screen is a starting point to look for key pieces, if key peices are there then cont. to EQuIP #ngsschat

A must read book, "Thanks for the Feedback" does a great job of helping us peel the onion and value all feedback. #NGSSchat

Yes. NGSS are ambitions. We all have so much learning to do. That's exciting. Especially when we do it together #ngsschat

A5 NGSS has moved Ts out of district bubbles & encouraged casting a wide net for collaborators. I love hearing others' ideas! #NGSSchat
