Moon to align with 3 planets on Friday evening accuweather.com/en/space-news/…

Phenomenal chat today with @OakGroveSD leaders and @StandTallSteve ! #advancingOGSD

Mr. Moreno is the absolute best! @IndigoProgram

@MrSteaches_1 Haha! Every. Single. Meeting. 🤣

Brandon - MS ILA teacher/coach. #makeEdReal

@Shapiro_WTHS Love coming in to a meet where music is playing!

A3 - lots of Q and A - technology - music - just being positive - smiles - getting them to take ownership. #makeedreal

A3.2 I also had fun with hosting a student led assembly for MLKJr. Day. I got such great feedback from teachers and students. Students miss each other - any way we can create spaces for them to interact gets them coming back. #MakeEdReal

A3 - Virtual Recesses, Teachers do Fun Friday, breakout rooms just to chat and get to know each other, @nupurssethi does games with her kids every Friday. We send home materials to still do hands-on building projects. My daughter says she loves @Flocabulary. #MakeEdReal

A2 I'm just trying to figure out how best to use my gifts and skill in this setting. I've really been focusing on listening to the experience of the teachers and students so that I may be responsive to their needs. I've been working on supporting and encouraging . #MakeEdReal

@DennisDill @pe_parr @Shapiro_WTHS I go back and forth on this too. It's a matter of recognizing what each student needs to feel safe and learn. - Discussion of agreements through dialogue with individuals...

A1b - We must explain to kids the importance of getting involved. I give a letter out that goes over keys to success. Listen - engage - take risks - camera on - ask questions. #MakeEdReal

@devmaxposlead Yes! I love how this has been a priority for most - even from the top down.

A1. Engagement is now much more about meeting students in an empathetic manner. #MakeEdReal

@BenTalsma Yes. Here too. It seems like those up and down cycles are much more frequent. It's hard to sustain energy.

A1 - I feel like engagement now is just flat-out harder. Everyone is so fried and stressed out, and so much of what makes school rich and rewarding is on hold.... #MakeEdReal

A1: Engagement looks like kids participating in breakout rooms, in the chat, doing work asynchronously, and showing up. Give them a chance to talk with each other, make stuff with each other, and have fun. #MakeEdReal

Good Evening, I'm Genvieve, Principal from California.. #MakeEdReal

@kteaches5th @ElizRussellEdu I love this! After this year we could all do with practicing more of both!

@ElizRussellEdu Gratitude and Grace! Two words I would love to start now and continue remembering to give myself, colleagues, parents, and students gratitude and grace! Everyone is doing their best! #MakeEdReal

Q2: What are your goals for 2021? #MakeEdReal

A3 I plan to sleep, get some exercise, and just soak up every moment with my kiddos. They want to make gingerbread houses. I'm not excited about it, but I'll get there for them! 🤣 #MakeEdReal

@ElizRussellEdu Thanks for tagging me! Working on my EdD has taken me away from twitter for a while.

@GenvieveD Yes! Don't we all! Thanks for joining us, Genvieve! #MakeEdReal

A2. I want to re-find balance in 2021. #MakeEdReal
