A1 @MrPStrunk for always giving encouraging, wise beyond his years, words of wisdom! My buddy @_on11 who makes jokes and tells me to get my tail back in gear when I feel like giving up! And of course @CristinaDajero who is inspiring all day every day! #champforkids

I have a few Ts on my team who continue to push me with their kind words. I’m very tough on myself but they always reassure me that it is much better than it used to be. Keeps me going. #ChampforKids
REDCARPETCLASS Nov 20 @ 8:11 PM EST

A1: It is my Ss who truly motivate me to keep going each day. They remind me frequently of all the things I took for granted growing up (and now). They remind me that they NEED me to be that #onecaringadult in their lives. #champforkids

Q2 - Who is that friend that you are able to disagree with and know that you will not have to "go buy new friends"? What is it that makes everything come back together? #champforkids
MissKRafferty Nov 20 @ 8:14 PM EST

Same! The work of a teacher is never done and it's so easy to procrastinate.#champforkids

khoggardGRT - Moderator Nov 20 @ 8:15 PM EST

A2 I'm going to go with my friend @Tpet27 on this one. She & I are both passionate and have had a few "discussions". Though we haven't always agreed on everything I think it is safe to say that we respect each other and recognize the passion is always for Ss! #champforkids
MissKRafferty Nov 20 @ 8:15 PM EST

A2: Again, @MrOverstreet101 As much as we bicker like an old married couple on social media, I know we have each other's backs. #champforkids
MrsHankinsClass Nov 20 @ 8:15 PM EST

A1: The friend that always pushes me to keep going even if I want to give up is my principal, @O_L_Mayers & does so w/her encouraging words—“You were meant to do great things.” Others who have encouraged me: @burgessdave @_on11 @michelelkelly @mradamwelcome #champforkids
Mr_ESievert Nov 20 @ 8:15 PM EST

A2: That would be my co-teacher. Her and I have similar personalities and teaching styles but different methods when dealing with behavior. We know we can disagree and not get all heated and away from the focus..our students! #champforkids
Shapiro_WTHS Nov 20 @ 8:16 PM EST

A2 - My friend Mike! He is a fellow teacher who has the best interests of kids. We don’t always agree, but we have a mutual respect that’s helped us to become best friends. He is also incredibly positive. #champforkids
MsJachymiak Nov 20 @ 8:16 PM EST

A2: I would say my sister. We do not always agree, but we still support each other. #champforkids
Lisa42Slp Nov 20 @ 8:16 PM EST
A2: This is a friend that I literally have known since the day I was born. She came to visit me in the hospital when I was born and we have been best friends since. I don't see her much now because of distance, but when we do it is like we have never been apart. #champforkids

heARTISTatWORK Nov 20 @ 8:16 PM EST

A2: this would be my best gal pal. We can agree or disagree and no matter what we see past our views and it only makes our friendship stronger. She’s a good grounding force when “I’m off my rocker” so to speak and vice versa...unconditional acceptance for each other #champforkids
MissKRafferty Nov 20 @ 8:16 PM EST

Mutual respect is so important. It's so much easier to 'go buy' new friends when there's little respect between the old ones #champforkids

A2: @MicahStuder is a friend that I love to “disagree” with! His passionate fight for equity and bridging the digital divide has led to some wonderful debates. Love him like a brother! #ChampforKids
MrsHankinsClass Nov 20 @ 8:18 PM EST

A2: The friend that I am able to disagree with and know that I will not have to "go buy new friends" is @MsGalyensClass. We may see things differently at times, but I know I can always count on her for ANYTHING. Why? Because we respect & love each other. #champforkids
LindaEdwardsi Nov 20 @ 8:18 PM EST

A2 My hubby is my best friend who supports me but sometimes doesn’t agree #champforkids
MrOverstreet101 Nov 20 @ 8:18 PM EST

Same with my coteacher. Being too different content areas we have to have that mutual trust and respect with very different ideas. #champforkids

Q3 - Which friend within your #PLN has a “big heart” that has touched you or made an impact on the work that you do everyday! How will you pay it forward? #champforkids

A3 - It is impossible to name one person. Sorry. @MrsHankinsClass @ChristineBemis2 @khoggardGRT @LevineWrites @iluveducating @PHausTech @_on11 @CristinaDajero I will post more! #champforkids
MsJachymiak Nov 20 @ 8:22 PM EST

A3: This is the same person that I mentioned in A1. @MrsHankinsClass is because she has such a big heart, and she is one of my biggest cheerleaders. I plan on giving back by continuing to encourage others. #champforkids
heARTISTatWORK Nov 20 @ 8:23 PM EST

A3: ah this is so hard but it will be my first twitter “friend” @tracyscottkelly. He is constantly there if I have a question, for a good that, and motivating words on a daily basis...and my partner in crime for #boomerangofawesomeness #champforkids
LindaEdwardsi Nov 20 @ 8:23 PM EST

A3 There a lot of my PLN with big hearts that influence me everyday #teachpos #ChampForKids #bekindEdu #fcpslearn #champforkids
Mr_ESievert Nov 20 @ 8:23 PM EST

A3: This lady is my "go-to" @PegGrafwallner. She recognizes my passion, connects to me being a SPED teacher, and encourages me to do better! I'll be paying it forward by reviewing her new book coming out at the end of this month! #champforkids
Greg_Moffitt Nov 20 @ 8:23 PM EST

A3: I don’t think anyone has as big of a heart as @MrsHankinsClass. The love she has for students - all students - and the energy she has to make them know they are loved, is inspiring. Every tweet. Every photo. It’s amazing. I want to be a student in her class. #ChampforKids
Hahne_Elyse Nov 20 @ 8:23 PM EST

A3 One of my former paras @MrBannerman has the biggest heart for kids and will be an amazing teacher soon! He never leaves a room without making someone smile and rocks the support train. #champforkids

REDCARPETCLASS Nov 20 @ 8:24 PM EST

A2: I’m going to go with my Ss again. My Ss all have emotional/behavioral disorders and are victims of trauma. I’ve built relationships with them. Even on their worst days, they still show respect and apologize for their Bx. Each day is a new day. #champforkids
ChristineBemis2 Nov 20 @ 8:24 PM EST

Every peep on #champforkids #teachpos #122edchat @melanie_korach & so many more ... I will continue to support their tweets & spread all the good we as educators are a part of ❤️❤️❤️❤️

MissKRafferty Nov 20 @ 8:25 PM EST

A3: @MagicPantsJones has the biggest heart for his students and fellow teachers. He's the kind of teacher and person I want to be when I grow up. I can pay it forward by striving to be half as positive and encouraging as he is. #champforkids
pattersonaubrey Nov 20 @ 8:25 PM EST
