Dot Winter and Tracey Hechler are presenting “How to Consider LRE for Students with Significant Disabilities” to a standing-room-only crowd at TCASE this morning! We are so lucky to have partnerships like this in NEISD. @txcase #theNEISDway

Have a student you're struggling with? Try the 'two-by-ten' strategy: For two minutes each day, 10 days in a row, have a personal conversation with the #student about anything the student is interested in. Wonderfully simple and wildly effective. #edchat #education

I love this so much! Y’all are rockstars!

Model the behaviors that you expect from your students. #TrainerTipoftheWeek

It's time for our #TrainerTipoftheWeek! This week, learn about #ProactiveTeaching.

Shoutout to the schools and educators who approach poor student choices and poor behavior from the lens of 'how can I help you’ and ‘how can I help meet your unmet needs’ rather than going immediately to punishment.

"First, Then" often helps!

At this point in the #school year you may feel you’ve tried everything when it comes to connecting with a challenging #student. You may feel you’ve exhausted all your options & it’s time to throw in the towel. This child has no doubt seen others throw in the towel. Don’t.

George Sugai: A simple way to incorporate mental wellness into schools is to start greeting each student as they walk through your door. This strategy has been shown to build positive relationships with students & reduce situationally inappropriate behaviors. #APBS2019

One of the best ways to learn a new concept? Teach it to someone else. It's why peer-to-peer learning is so powerful—and the research agrees. One of the pieces I recently edited for @edutopia #TeachingIsLearning

The skill that connects to this week's Power of Love is Positive Intent. 😍 Two powerful quotes from this clip: 1-“Children cannot act differently until they are seen differently.” 2- The powerful words we say to kids: “You wanted…” #iHeartCD #consciousdiscipline #positiveintent
