When the first movie was really bad it rarely leads to a successful sequel.
A few helpful tips for teachers on how to avoid burnout and taking it out on your students. “4 Ways Teachers Can Stay Grounded edutopia.org/article/4-ways…
Culture beats strategy. Strategy is important but it is your culture that will determine whether your strategy is successful.
Tell me some adults in your school aren’t really good at pouring gasoline on a little tiny fire. I’m not saying the kid isn’t at fault, disrespectful, rude, etc.. I’m simply asking do you pour gasoline or water? Goal = Defuse. Every time. #thatonekid
If education is really “all about the kids” then why does it generally: *limit physical activity, play time, the arts, socialization *focus only on standardized tests as success * give students little voice/input into learning * focuses on their weaknesses not strengths
If we're more precise in our own understanding of mistakes and in our communication with students, it will increase their understanding, buy-in, and efficacy as learners. @MindsetWorks kqed.org/mindshift/4287…

A sign of a good culture in schools is when students walk up to the adults instead of away from them.

Schools across the country say they’re seeing an uptick in disruptive behaviors. Some are obvious and visible, but others are quieter calls for help, like students putting their head down and refusing to talk. @kalynbelsha @Chalkbeat kqed.org/mindshift/5857…
