So much fun today talking intervention instruction, data, scheduling, goal-setting, and more with @hollydalerocks interventionists. ❤️ how these Ts continue to seek professional growth opportunities @Kmj1001 @cobbplp #WeGet2theHeart
So inspiring to be in Dr. A's class @hollydalerocks. Ss formed words w/ magnetic letters, engaged w/ adaptive digital platforms, and rotated through individual reading conferences with the Tt. Oh, and an interactive whole class lesson to boot! #WeGet2theHeart @cobbplp @Kmj1001 – at Marietta, GA

I want to print and laminate this so I can post it in my classroom. It is so good and such a great visual of #GrowthMindset

Jigsaw has an effect-size too big to ignore. All too often, the traditional model fails. Here’s how you fix it!

Literacy in math? Yes, please. Ms. Akinlabi's class finds books to match math lessons, reinforcing concepts in differentiated ways. @TeamBryantES @CobbMathDept @Kmj1001 @cobbplp #WeGet2theHeart – at Mableton, GA
How many ways can you solve a word problem? In Ms. Akinlabi's class @TeamBryantES Ss choose mental, concrete, or visual using manipulatives and function tables. Last step is explain and justify. @Kmj1001 #WeGet2theHeart – at Mableton, GA
Literary pumpkins abound @TeamBryantES! Super Mario, Minnie Mouse, and even the Grinch were spotted getting in some reading time on the kindergarten hallway. @COBB_ELA @CobbLibMedia
Have taco piñata, will travel🙂...so excited about today's Read for the Record! So much fun experiencing literacy as community. #ReadfortheRecord2023 @COBB_ELA @CobbLibMedia – at Georgia, USA
Ms. King's class is putting in the time to build background knowledge and vocabulary prior to reading about soybeans. Do they grow on trees, plants, or bushes??? Inquiring minds wanted to know.🙂 #WeGet2theHeart @Kmj1001 @AustellEagles @cobbplp – at Austell, GA
Ms. Ramsay's class @Team_AcworthES practicing shared writing techniques. Great modeling of reading fluency and prosody as well. Building on foundational skills and improving each day! #WeGet2theHeart @Kmj1001 @EmanuelTorralba @cobbplp – at Austell, GA
Grateful for time spent with @CobbSchools reading/math interventionists and presenters yesterday at our annual kickoff! Collaborative conversations, data-driven instruction, innovation...Cobb= best place to teach, lead, and learn! @cobbplp @Kmj1001 #WeGet2theHeart – at Marietta, GA
Love the reflective practice and intentionality in building team amongst adults in the bldg. Go, Spartans! – at Marietta, GA
Campbell High School has got it going on! Leadership is gearing up for a powerful start to the year. @CobbSchools @mandertons
Great convo. Schmoker = favorite, and Steve Graham is his "neighbor and friend??" Think of the around-the-pool talks in that neighborhood! 🙂 ❤ the focus on Ss reading & writing time w/ meaningful discourse. Also appreciate the call to seize opportunities and avoid inertia. – at Fair Oaks, GA

Here's the basic shift we need to make in the simplest way I can say it.
Instead of asking:
"What am I going to teach today?"
Ask this.
"How will I design class to produce evidence of learning?"
That's how we start to change Tier 1 instruction.
Learning is the job.

If you teach Middle School Advanced Math classes in Cobb I’d love to see you today at my #STEMapalooza Mindset Mathematics sessions and give you your copy of your book. @CobbAlp #lovetothinkhere

Yes! #CobbCoaching
When people feel like their opinion matters, they’re much more likely to succeed. Learning how to be an effective listener is crucial to making others feel heard and making them feel like they have a voice. 🗣️🙌

For those leaders that have started at a new school I highly recommend having one-on-one conversations with each and every staff member! Today I finished number 88 and I have learned so much that will help guide my transition! It takes time, but it’s worth it! – at Smyrna, GA
Ts sharing "one good thing" with a colleague at @COBB_ELA's Skilled Teachers Build Skilled Readers. Great way to attune the brain toward the positive to start the day! @elizabethcobia @jen_shiers @BethTeaches – at Georgia, USA
