@sparvell @BreneBrown One of the best books I have read.

Enjoying #TheGiftsOfImperfection by @BreneBrown

Being very intentional about routines—and giving students a chance to practice them authentically—can set the stage for a fun and functional classroom all year long. 🤩

Joy and gratitude are deeply intertwined. #joyrevolution #bethejoy #findthejoy #spreadthejoy #gratitude #joyproject #SEL

Step One is to cultivate joy within. Before you can spread joy, it's essential to find joy within yourself. Practice gratitude, mindfulness, and self-care. Engage in activities that bring you happiness and fulfillment, and surround yourself with good people. #bethejoy #SEL

The name or names we go by are very much a part of who we are. Often there is a whole story tied to a person's name. Check out our new unit: 70e321.myshopify.com/products/my-na…

@sparvell @MicrosoftEdge The limitless potential of AI possibility in education is mind blowing. We had a student debate about chatgpt and kids were very rigid in thinking it leads to cheating. It will be interesting to watch how it is introduced. Creativity and critical thinking potential are endless.

Designer is built right inside @MicrosoftEdge , and it provides AI-powered design suggestions without having to leave your flow or site you’re on. microsoft.com/en-us/edge/upd…

Reframing our thinking is not easy. Our best version of selves responds, coregulates, and is calm. Yet we are human. Reframing our thinking is like treading down a walking path in a field or forest. The more it is used the easier it becomes.

@Karl_Mercuri @Self_Reg Way to go, Karl! Love Shanker!

I'm happy to share that I’ve obtained a new certification: Self-Reg Foundations Program from @Self_Reg

@Vaughters Go Derek!!

Funny story about Derek Gee. About 3yrs ago when a few restaurants just started to open post covid, I went to a new French place. The Canadian owner is cycling fan. He brought me the resume of a kid named Derek Gee… missed that one! Oops! #cantwinthemall 🤪

Help! Need a fast fun no-log in online warm-up for that meeting today in-person or shared screen! I got you! My current favorite wordwall.net/resource/26837… You're welcome

@sparvell @Office That is very cool!

@sparvell Love this one!

Happy Thursday …are you better than last Thursday?

@TrudyLudwig @MikeCurato @nidhiart To be perfectly honest, the majority of Trudy Ludwig’s books address relational aggression in a way that kids can relate to. They are the staple in my SEL collection and work in classrooms.

@MikeCurato @nidhiart Yes- "Confessions of a Former Bully" includes Empower Tools for parents to role play w/ young kids on how to respond to mean/hurtful comments. @nidhiart --this would be a good Mother/Daughter book read to help.

@TrudyLudwig @MikeCurato @nidhiart Such a valuable resource in a classroom!

A good starting point for introducing social and emotional discussions is to equip students with the vocabulary to identify what they are feeling. Check out our newest SEL unit: 70e321.myshopify.com/products/tackl…
