I've worked with thousands of teachers in every content area preK-12 on boosting our practice for an ever-changing world.
Here are my top 3 low-lift, high-impact shifts. 🧵
Students do not struggle because they cannot learn.
They struggle because learning does not transfer.
If knowledge only works in one format, it is fragile. Teaching for concepts helps ideas stick and travel.

The biggest shift happens when students see learning as something they can use.
Not just for school.
For thinking.
Concepts give students a lens for making sense of the world.

One-time only professional learning doesn’t make a lasting impact. All learners—adults included—need time and space to integrate new knowledge into existing frameworks, practice, receive feedback, and reflect.
Happy Monday! Let's crush the week. What are your routines for getting in a good mood? Mine are music, inspirational coffee mugs, hugs from my vivacious children.
Happy Monday to all risk-takers who are in the arena! Let's crush the week. 😎

Teaching strengthens understanding. It leads to thinking critically about how to teach concepts and communicating ideas to students in different ways. These skills are important to model for students as we strive to equip them with the tools to do the same with their learning.🙌
When we ask students to explain their thinking to their peers in their own words, they have to thinking critically and deeply. It's a powerful strategy that is worth the time spent!
