#fcsvanguard is the home of the Vanguard team's Thursday Twitter Chats. It is also a great place to post success stories, updates, and so much more. It's a chat that anyone can join and a great way to find new ideas. Join the community today!
Megan Endicott, music teacher @DolvinES and associate lead coach for @FCSVanguard here! Except you'll be hearing from me through the @FCSVanguard handle tonight! #FCSVanguard See you there!
Looks like a lot of Vanguardians will be taking a moment to rest here in about a week! Hang in there! The last week before break is always the most fun! #fcsvanguard
I just bought some nylon fabric for my green screen. I'm going to spend some time during the break to make some @DoInkTweets lessons. My techie mind wont stop running with ideas to support my kids! @PowellinPrimary I need a tutorial!#FCSVanguard#collaboration
A4: Twitter chats are another gateway to learning. New ideas, new ppl, new perspectives...I love my PLNs and I have developed most of them from twitter #fcsvanguard
A4: For me the benefits are learn and chat from home, reconnect with others across the district, and if I can’t make the live chat I can just scroll through when I have time #fcsvanguard
A4: quick thoughts let us bounce ideas off each other in real time. So much information, on a platform easily accessible. Hallmark of good collaboration 👍🏻 #fcsvanguard
A4: You have an opportunity to share meaningful links, resources, videos, graphics (you name it) with the global community (and they can share with you, too!) #fcsvanguard
A4: Twitter is one of my top 3 sources of PD so communicating and sharing ideas with my little Twitter Fam PLN is always a learning experience. #fcsvanguard
A4 Twitter chats are a great way to expand our professional leaning networks beyond our buildings! I love learning how others are innovating around the district! #fcsvanguard
A6: my biggest take away... complaining is not going to get you anywhere. It is simpler to just do the work and in the end it is worth it even if you don’t see it in the beginning. Why use that energy on the neg and burn yourself out? #FCSVanguard
A6: Learning and Leading Intentionally....This is something I’ve always strived to do but with the different roles that I take on, I have to look at these two from a very different vantage point...growing pains sometimes, but worth it #fcsvanguard
A6- My biggest takeaway is how important mindfulness, wellness, self care & mental health & illness impact education. I’ve been able to see the impact mindfulness, deep breathing & focus play on both educators & students. #FCSVanguard
A6: Keep moving forward , change is good and necessary for progress . Do things because they make a difference, not because we always done it that way #fcsvanguard
I’m super excited about mentoring. I LOVE helping my coworkers expand on their technology usage. And making their lives a little easier. It’s even more fun when I turn a die hard OneNote teacher to a Google Classroom fan. 😂#FCSVanguard
A7: A New Year always brings me new perspectives and a time to reset and reevaluate...I look forward to personal and professional growth...if I’m well (prayerfully) everything around me will follow suit #fcsvanguard
A7: The challenges it brings, growth of my students, my personal and professional growth. Being prepared for the challenges but embracing the growth that will follow. #FCSVanguard
A7: I look forward to seeing the impact that Vanguard/Vanchise members can have on teachers and students, not only in my building by throughout the county. #VanguardProud#fcsvanguard
A7- All of the possibilities that 2019 have to offer. Impacting the world in a greater way. Walking in my destiny with my head in the air. 😃#fcsvanguard
A8: New Members—Pace yourself, thingscan pile on and up really fast so take small bites in the bite of time you have to get things done (talking to myself too🤷🏾♀️) #fcsvanguard
#fcsvanguard A8 - For new members - choose one new thing to try. Try to not get overwhelmed. Technology should be used to make things easier and more efficient. Not harder.
Q7: What I look forward to next semester is spring break! What I dread is testing season; it drains all the relaxation I got during spring break. #FCSVanguard
Learning how to be a good coach for our teachers. They need help, and I want to help them deliver the best to their students. Making me a better teacher, too, is a definite plus. #fcsvanguard
I’m Mr. Prather a 7th Grade Mathematics Teacher 👨🏾🏫 at Bear Creek MS. I’m a Vanchise Member, SGC Chair, and PBIS Team Member. #Vanguard#SouthLC#FCSVanguard
A8: advice for new members - don’t be afraid to try new things, find that one person at your school that shares your passion for technology and make it happen. #lightthespark#fcsvanguard
