So much excitement in the IDC over our new duck friends that just hatched!

Watch a teacher make roughly ~1,000 instructional decisions in about 45 seconds. Only a few of them are about the lesson but the lesson depends on ALL of them. This is one of the hardest things to explain about teaching to people who have never taught.

I have an extra class set of Nat the Cat Takes a Nap that needs a new home. Teachers and librarians: to win these books, RT/like this tweet and follow me. I’ll pick a winner next week! *I will never DM you to ask for personal info related to my giveaways. Beware of scammers!*

@bkshelfdetectiv This book is a fun one!

HELP? What are some other picture book titles in which kids hold the power of turning the page or not? I can only think of this:

@SharonEsswein @JamesClear Needed this 💗

"Simple mindset shifts: - I'm not hurt, I'm healing. - I'm not losing, I'm learning. - I was not rejected, I was redirected. Negative things happen. Negative mindsets make them harder." – @JamesClear

@SammyAlthouse Agree!!!! Soar Eagles Soar!

Eva Mireles and Irma Garcia were two of the greatest teachers Uvalde, TX has ever known. Their classroom was full of fun, growth, giggles, teamwork, and, most of all, love. Their legacy will live in the hearts of our community forever. #uvaldestrong

Getting all our ducks in a row with principal @paige_canale for the end of the school year!

@SammyAlthouse Way to power thru, B! 💕👏🏽

It should have been a disaster. She is the biggest Harry Potter fan. Her brother liked the movies😏 He was the chosen one during the wand ceremony. Walking into the park, we talked about E+R=O. She pressed pause, shed some tears, then selected her own wand. O ✅

@Deblairson Looks beautiful!

Let’s play “I spy” - but you can’t say 124. I’ll go first. I spy 62. Do you see it? (I used all the blocks!) Your turn.

If you know me, you know I look to include place value in everything! So...what do you get when you cross place value with the wonderful @SteveWyborney's Splat! You get place value Splat! (or as we call them at our house 'Plats!')

Submitted an article yesterday that I've been working on for 8 years! 8 YEARS! Rejected 3 times. Each rejection took me 1+ year(s) to process before I could revise and submit again. Man, this academic journey. Time to celebrate another submission! #academia #professorlife
