At tonight’s emergency Board of Education meeting, several changes and implementations were approved by the Board of Education. This includes updates to the school calendar and discussions around closing the digital divide. Here is a synopsis of the updates! #PGCPSProud #StaySafe

To all the folks trying to recreate school at home, with highly structured schedules & worksheets: we teach that way in schools because of CROWD CONTROL, not because it's the best way to learn. Kids have a rare opportunity here to engage in deep, authentic learning instead. 1/

For any educators trying to reach your students through remote learning during #Covid_19 #schoolclosure
You get 5 minutes of record time free with @Screencastify which is great. I try to keep each video to 30 seconds. Make another! You have unlimited storage space in your school Google drive.

If I view my students through the lens of, “This is your fault,” I’ve failed them. If I view them through the lens of, “You just can’t help it,” I’ve failed them. I must see them as their best-selves, hold them accountable, and help to get them there.

As a working mom this resonates so much with me: “Instead of seeking balance, seek harmony instead.” #foreverseekingmyharmony #workingmoms

Led an awesome PD with @NorthviewES teachers in Grades 2-5 on MAP Data. Teachers left with new knowledge and a plan to rework their small groups and challenge students!

Have a student you're struggling with? Try the 'two-by-ten' strategy: For two minutes each day, 10 days in a row, have a personal conversation with the #student about anything the student is interested in. Wonderfully simple and wildly effective. #edchat #education
