There’s something so exciting about brand new teachers’ classrooms and watching them get it ready all summer long. So much wonder. So much self-drive. So much innocence. The sad part is when we see a new teacher lose that because they don’t feel supported during their first…

Adults in the classroom, If you are the one doing most of the talking today, chances are you are teaching. If the students are doing most of the talking today, chances are they are learning. Which outcome do we want the most?

A long, hard look in the mirror moment... If more & more kids are falling behind, not growing, under achieving, not "getting it," that's the sign to look at Tier 1. Don't look at the performance of the learners. Look at the preparation of the learning. Design Tier 1.

Have you seen samedifferentimages.wordpress.com from @bstockus? Same or Different? is a routine that provides students opportunities to construct arguments when comparing objects, such as numbers or shapes. #MTBoS #iteachmath

Make Tier 1 the priority. Make Tier 1 the priority. Make Tier 1 the priority. Tiers 2 & 3 are a direct reflection of how effective your Tier 1 is working. Design Tier 1 so that it is all is should be for learners & teachers. It's the only way things change.

If we provide the same Tier 1 learning & remain frustrated w/ Tiers 2 & 3 seeming to increase, maybe it's time to stop & study what is (& isn't) working. Stop the "tried & true" not showing results. Start designing intentional impact on learning It's our choice & our job.

Homework does little to improve achievement and can actually have negative effects, especially at elementary level. Recess however has many positive effects such as improved self regulation of emotions, improved interpersonal skills and focus! And should never be taken away.

There's no “can’t” in math! We'd love to hear what's working in YOUR classroom to help Ss persevere when they’re solving a math problem. #MathFam #ITeachMath

Something I learned from a mentor teacher many years ago was to view the curriculum as something we explore and discover rather than something we cover. There’s a big difference.

I have people in my DMs concerned that @Desmos is helping students learn tricks to pass their state's end-of-course exams. I spent some time looking at their concerns, and the exams, in my latest newsletter. danmeyer.substack.com/p/are-we-teach…

Even the best teachers who seem to have it all together still need encouragement, support,and to know they’re appreciated and the same is true for administrators too.

I'm all about patience and grace. As of now, my ~172 student roster has >750 missing assignments through the semester. Y'all want me to accept all late work, with no penalty, through the end of the semester, *and* keep my family-time boundaries and mental health? Mkay.

My warm-up question for students after the weekend is usually centered around: "what is one thing, big or small, that brought you joy while we were away? I want to celebrate that with you." Gotta start doing that for myself. It makes me smile to celebrate students' responses.

School leaders: I'm not sure what PD you have planned for your teachers in the next few weeks, but one suggestion I'd make is to give teachers the chance to see a high quality live lesson. Teachers need exemplars of what good remote instruction looks like in action.
