I find it incredibly frustrating that teacher-leaders who choose to stay in the classroom instead of going into administration are not rewarded financially. This devalues teachers and is one of the aspects of education that needs to be rethought.

Independent reading leads to an increased volume of reading. The more one reads, the better one reads. The more one reads, the more knowledge of words and language one acquires. The more one reads, the more fluent one becomes as a reader. ncte.org/statement/inde…
International #SELday tip one: Start the day with a check-in. Wherever you are, as your students/children how they're doing. Give them space and time to think and respond in whatever way means the most: words, drawings, stories.
