A5: I just video taped myself teaching and watched. Too much me time. Too much explaining. Need to start student work faster. #scitlap

JesseGreenej Jan 27 @ 9:37 PM EST

#scitlap I think about the larger mission. Teaching kids that they can think and solve problems and accomplish great things.

SarahBosch1 Jan 27 @ 9:37 PM EST

A5: Kryptonite. Tapping noises. Little constant noises. I can handle loud. No ticking clocks for this pirate. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:37 PM EST

@SarahBosch1 Wow, great idea, but kinda scary to watch myself. #scitlap

Kpalmerscience Jan 27 @ 9:39 PM EST

#scitlap A5: my krypto is usually outside the classroom: paperwork, lack of communication, meetings...kids bring me back up

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:39 PM EST

A5) I download with a colleague. Listening is a great skill. Also, learned to let it go. But that took lots of years of practice. #scitlap

8blahblahblah8 Jan 27 @ 9:39 PM EST

andreakornowski - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:42 PM EST

A6: "The Look" is all it takes. #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Jan 27 @ 9:43 PM EST

@JesseGreenej @daleyscience Pressing play was scary, but it was informative. I let myself cut things while I watched #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:43 PM EST

A6) HA! A deep breath, sometimes followed by a stepping out in the hall for short convo. #scitlap

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:44 PM EST

A6) I still struggle when getting caught off guard. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:44 PM EST

@andreakornowski Ahhh, the "teacher look"! #scitlap

JesseGreenej Jan 27 @ 9:44 PM EST

A6 I don't sometimes. I go way over dramatic hulk! Regain attention and don't lose it. #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Jan 27 @ 9:48 PM EST

@Partain_Science YES! And take something for a stuffy head or stay home. They don't need to suffer from my grumps. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:48 PM EST

My family always buys tickets on opening night for all of the Marvel movies...the next question is about TICKETS! #scitlap

andreakornowski - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:48 PM EST

A6: Frozen's "Let it Go" also helps. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:48 PM EST

@pentaclethra We all lose it sometimes, I think. #scitlap

8blahblahblah8 Jan 27 @ 9:48 PM EST

Not an issue. But 🚔 accused me of becoming the Hulk 😐. Thus the accusation - he opposite of what I'm really like. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:49 PM EST

Q7: How often do you ask yourself "Would I buy a ticket to my own class?" And what is your answer? #scitlap https://t.co/quJTIKbjVp

JennaLSnow Jan 27 @ 9:49 PM EST

#scitlap A6: i usually resort to laughter: "Really?"

daleyscience - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:50 PM EST

A7: This is one of my favorite questions from @burgessdave. I ask myself this everyday. Most days, it's a yes. #scitlap

8blahblahblah8 Jan 27 @ 9:51 PM EST

A7: The V Principal brought any impromptu visited to my ClassRM. It was always organized. Kids were focused and having fun. #scitlap

JesseGreenej Jan 27 @ 9:51 PM EST

#scitlap definitiely a question that I think about a lot. Some days are better than others.

pentaclethra Jan 27 @ 9:51 PM EST

A7 I ask this frequently. I have a few lessons I could sell tickets to. Liquid nitrogen day is one example. #scitlap

JennaLSnow Jan 27 @ 9:52 PM EST

#scitlap A7: yes for tomorrow - extracting our DNA from cheek cells!

8blahblahblah8 Jan 27 @ 9:52 PM EST

@JennaLSnow Exactly. It's a much better way of redirecting attention without losing that energy. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:52 PM EST

A7: This is also what makes me a bad student. I like my learning to be challenging, but fun! I have high #tlap expectations. #scitlap

lisaomeeks Jan 27 @ 9:52 PM EST

A7: I love this question, ask it all the time! Just need more time. #scitlap

daleyscience - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:53 PM EST

@JennaLSnow That is cool - I have only done onions and peas! #scitlap

JennaLSnow Jan 27 @ 9:54 PM EST

#scitlap A7: my goal every year is to build in more 'yes' lessons.

JesseGreenej Jan 27 @ 9:55 PM EST

#scitlap I want the kids to want to buy tickets too.

8blahblahblah8 Jan 27 @ 9:55 PM EST

#scitlap I didn't mention my SuperPower. I used to spin around hoping to turn into WonderWoman. Went to UCSB to be a 🍎T. Close enough.

SciTeach7Davis - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:55 PM EST

A7) I need to build my "ticket repertoire" for sure! Some are great, but not sure I've got a season's pass worth... #scitlap

SarahBosch1 Jan 27 @ 9:55 PM EST

@JesseGreenej After watching myself, I have a few things to change. #scitlap I'm much better in Sept. Oct. Takes time.

daleyscience - Moderator Jan 27 @ 9:56 PM EST
