@FED_Catherine @CartinLisa I love using SIOP.

I am currently studying to become a special education teacher, but I am also very interested in #TESOL. Any advice on how to connect those two passions? Or tips in general for how to support language development in special education classrooms? Thank you! #PSTPLN @CartinLisa

@BrianRSmithSr Thanks @BrianRSmithSr as a per-service teacher I really appreciate the reminder that it is okay when things done exactly as planned. #nearpodchat @CartinLisa

A6: Actually, I would encourage new teachers to embrace flexibility and honor the need to pivot when it comes to routines. When you are building relationships and creating equitable opportunities for learning, things change as needed. Be Ready! #NearpodChat

@CameronDMoon2 Hi Cameron, I think it is awesome that, as educators, we have opportunities to learn from and grow with one another. Teaching can be hard and no one teacher will know all the answers, that is why it is so important to have this community. Thanks for sharing! #PSTPLN @CartinLisa

I learned that teachers have a special community where we can all learn from one another to help our teaching careers be the best they can be. #celebratemonday #pstpln

Today I had the awesome opportunity to meet some high school students from Iraq and was reminded that sometimes as teachers our students have more to teach us then we do. Also, the most important lessons aren't always taught in the classroom. #PSTPLN #CelebrateMonday @CartinLisa
