Individual student math progressions start today! The goal is mastery at every step of the standard and complete transparency in learning and assessment. @PersonalizeSC @GriggsRoad

@CathleenLacey @SC_ATLL So true. Discernment is powerful, knowing when to engage and when to let something pass is a real act of self-respect.

A5. I’m learning that not every situation needs a response. Sometimes honoring my humanity means noticing something, understanding it for what it is, and choosing where my energy is best spent. #LoveSCSchools @SC_ATLL

I can't wait to see you all at the @SC_ATLL conference next month!

@CoachGrase @SC_ATLL Absolutely this. When students feel heard, everything changes.

A3: My 1% amazing is listening to students and meeting them where they are. Students often express not being heard by their teachers or administrators. I give students space and ensure their supports are implemented with fidelity. #lovescschools @SC_ATLL

Q3: Each educator brings something unique to their school community. That small “1% amazing” can make a powerful difference. Reply using A3 and remember to include #loveSCschools and tag @SC_ATLL in your response.

A5: I took a sick day Friday after a 101° fever Thursday night. My son was shocked, I’ve averaged <1 sick day per year since I started teaching, and usually for my kids. No guilt about taking care of myself this time.

A4: I think when students see authenticity, boundaries, and growth, they feel safer to learn, struggle, and succeed. My students have a safe place to struggle and grow when they see me authentically struggle.

A3: Creativity. If my students can dream it they can do it! @SC_ATLL

A2: In a profession where burnout and a lack of boundaries are often treated as measures of excellence, I’ve entered my villain era. I have boundaries. I won't tolerate bad leadership. #loveSCschools

A2: The pressure to be more than human is the expectation to always be “on,” to be everything a student needs - not just a teacher, but also a motivator, mentor, counselor, mediator, tech support, advocate, a nervous system regulator, a trauma responder...@SC_ATLL #loveSCschools

A1: Deciding when rules and data don't tell the whole story. #loveSCschools @SC_ATLL

Happy Sunday! Brittany Terry 5th grade math and science teacher in Clover, SC #loveSCschools @SC_ATLL

Throwback to last year’s amazing conference with John Hattie and @VisibleLearning @SC_ATLL John Hattie is coming back next week! Join my session on Making Math Visible and let’s turn research into classroom practice. #VisibleLearning #EduConference #MathInstruction #Sketchnotes

I’m happy to share that I’ve completed my Doctor of Education - EdD at University of South Carolina in Innovation in Education with a Curriculum Studies concentration.

So inspired by the innovation happening with @knowledgeworks around AI for personalized learning. 🤖💡 The ideas flowing are next-level. The future of learning is here and it’s student-centered.

Built a fun student-facing AI chatbot today with help from Kim Nordin! Students enter their interests, the math standards they want to grow in, and the type of project they like—then it generates project ideas 🤩 Here’s the link: student.magicschool.ai/s/join?joinCod…

Thursday marks 24 school days until Winter break. I ordered one of these advent calendars so we can do a mini science experiments every morning during morning meeting.

Tonight is the end of an era. Thank you for the music Clover. And thank you more for who you shaped Austin into. We couldn’t have done it without you. ☘️💙

Tuesday!

@KyleNiemis This is fantastic! Thanks for the tag!

Moraine Lake has been a bucket list item for years, unfortunately I can’t check it off because I just added at least ten more trips.

Progress being made on Mrs. Terry's 5th graders building a Little Free Library. Can't wait to see the finished product!
