This. All of this video. I aspire to be more like #50 in all I do. #ReclaimingOurCalling
LEADERS!!!!! People won’t change the way they talk about schools until WE change the way we talk about schools. RECOGNIZE... ACKNOWLEDGE... EXTEND the incredible things that teachers and kids do. #1minwalk2work #hackingleadership #leadfromwhereyouare
My apologies for the weird @slideshare link I shared. I don't know why it wasn't working. I have generated another one. Here are all of the book recommendations that @ProfessorNana and I shared during our @TCTELA breakout session yesterday: slideshare.net/Donalynm/bring… #TCTELA19
#tctela19 @writeguyjeff emphasizes that the test practice kids need is reading, writing, and discussion every day. “best practice, not test practice”
Based on some conversations at #tctela19 this morning, it seems timely to share this blog post again: bookwhisperer.com/2014/08/12/the…
It’s time for the 8th annual Nerdy Book Club Nerdies, Nerdy Book Club blog readers’ picks for the best children’s and young adult books of 2018. Thank you to the... nerdybookclub.wordpress.com/2018/12/26/the…
Yes! We need to make sure we are setting aside time for kids to read whole books, and that we're assessing how they're comprehending those whole books (and where they could use support). Loved @CarolJago's @HeinemannPD podcast. Got & looking fwd to reading The Book In Question.

3 principles for fostering intrinsic motivation in students: -- Autonomy is more effective than control. -- People who set their own goals outperform those who have goals foisted on them. -- Knowing why you're doing something helps you do it better. washingtonpost.com/news/parenting…
Once more for the folks in the back row, if you claim you are giving kids reading choices, but you restrict and define every book they are "allowed" to read, you are not giving them choice at all.

Okay everyone quit playin’ around and get this man on a squad! Overlooked and underrated! Retweet, share and show some love! @AdamSchefter @DraftDiamonds @notthefakeSVP @DanWoikeSports
One read aloud at a time. One conference at a time. One book talk at a time. One mini-lesson at a time. One small group at a time. Every minute we have with them is precious. They all count.
Build relationships! It's not an idea, it's essential. #ISTE18
