My students have *LOVED* taking a break from the tech and illustrating full color graffiti pages to correspond with their take-home reading assignments. Only requirements: 2 big mages, 2 big words, 4 key quotes (w/ page numbers). Here’s Gatsby and 1984! #sunchat

The more I teach the more I believe that flexibility is a magic bullet when it comes to easing student anxiety &, in turn, increasing achievement & success. Every. Single. Time. Flexibility puts kids at ease & gives them a sense of control. It brings humanity to education.

Hands down, this thread wins the internet today.
For the people advocating we open schools five days a week ‘as normal’ please immediately host a gathering in your home for 36 children for six hours. What? That’s too long? Okay that’s make this easier, three hours. Put on a movie give them some snacks...

Best SEL lesson so far!
This has become routine. Before every assessment. Kids take it seriously and now have requests for particular mindfulness activities. Doing my best to combat math anxiety. #weared34 #mtbos #calm #iteachmath
