Presenting here in @FCPSMaryland today on retrieval practice. Here is a 🧵on some of the insights I will be sharing. Very quickly we begin to forget new learning we are exposed to. When spaced out retrieval practice helps to slow the rate.

Remarkable words by @KHarris_FCPS at our leadership meeting about trust and leading through times of change. A thread 🧵 Often times we overestimate threats and underestimate our ability to handle them. When there are times of uncertainty it often feels like danger and we try to find answers or solutions that can be difficult to come upon—and without clear answers we make up stories to settle our reaction and uneasiness. ⬇️

It’s here 🤩tonight is the launch of ELITE Amplify! So excited to amplify teacher leadership across FCPS. Love seeing the power of collaboration in action! Thanks to @kimberlybrande2 @KentWetzelFCPS @DThompsonFCPS @FCPSPLTS4 @ratkowskiFCPSPL Tim Snyder #FCPSLeads #FCPSELITE

What an amazing morning at our opening FCPS Connects meeting. We welcomed our system leaders today to get ready for our school year. What 1 degree shift will you make to increase psychological safety with those you serve? #fcpsleads

What an amazing opportunity to start the year with a great bunch of leaders! #FCPSLeads #CantWait #HappyNewYear @FCPSMaryland @Lead2Support @FCPSLeads

We were excited to launch our new LIFT Central Leadership Coaching program today with our coaches and coachees here in FCPS!

FCPS leaders this is a great opportunity for some quick evidence-informed learning, if you can’t attend the recordings are available to those who sign up!
