Have them move someone’s cell phone; to a safe location of course, and see how fast that individual goes through each step.
Turns out if you have not ironed a pair of pants since March 13th that is a motor skill that can be lessened in that amount of time!!! #sendhelp
How to take the stress out of the CRAZY school year to come:
🔸Watch the sunrise at least one day during the week
🔸Support that poor soul that is beginning their teaching career this year
🔸Support that veteran teacher struggling with online instruction
🔸TAKE TIME FOR YOU!
Beginning Teachers,
Do👏Not👏Hide👏In👏A👏Bubble👏This👏School👏Year👏
This school year will be rough for even veteran teachers, but the technology courses that you have taken are GOLD right now! Be confident, be kind, and don't hold back!!!

This is your year to try something new!!!
Smaller Class Sizes ✅
Zero Expectations For Testing ✅
And Students ACTUALLY Wanting To Be In School ✅✅✅
COVID sucks, but make the most out of this school year and step outside of your “comfort-zone”.
3 simple tips for an awesome STEM unit:
* Share personal adventures
* Design the unit around what students need to know not what the State thinks the students need to know
* Don’t fear failure
Don’t be your own worst enemy in the classroom and let those students grow!!! #STEM
“Beautiful things can come from broken pieces when you give your broken pieces a chance”
This school year will be full of broken pieces, but don’t let that stop you from making a difference in someone’s life.

I’m in the search for good books for school administration. I am beginning a post-master’s program in the fall and I am wanting to gain all the knowledge I can before, during, and after the program. Any book suggestions?

#NCGA House unanimously passes SB374, which lets NC school districts seek State Board of Education permission to open school year using remote instruction instead of in-person instruction due to #coronavirus. Uncertain if Senate will concur. #nced #ncpol

Admin, while we expect our staff to do their job well as professionals, its still important to encourage and show them appreciation. Be quick to praise and slow to criticize. How you treat your staff has a major influence on school culture!

Sometimes the right opinion is not always the liked opinion! With strong leadership like that I am envious of your staff and the positive impact you must have on them!!!

Regardless what fall brings relationships will be more important now than ever.

Dear New Teachers,
Not every minute of class has to be focused on standards based instruction!
Sincerely,
A Teacher that wishes they had heard that their first year teaching

Throughout the pandemic my eyes have been opened to the STEM possibilities growing right in my back yard. Gardening will definitely be added to my STEM playbook when/if we are back to school in the fall!
