@clc1820 So sad. I LOVE talking to my students about making mistakes. That's where the best learning happens. I encourage mistakes in my classroom. It's hard to get past the insecurity that follows when you're wrong.

A7: We discuss "getting things wrong". I have found more so since moving to third grade that they are afraid to answer incorrectly. We discuss how we ALL get things wrong from time to time but its how we react that matters. We move forward together. #VCSGreatTeachers

@AcademicAnnVCS Yes they need to know their voice matters. That definitely encourages them to buy in.

A7: Actively listen to them and hear what they have to say. I want to know why they do what they do. It helps me to know them better and how I can help support them to achieve academically or even in life. #VCSGreatTeachers

A8: number 14! Intentionality #VCSGreatTeachers

A7: I tend to lean toward the "doing nothing is boring" type of vibe. Getting engaged in the lesson is way more interesting and fun! It makes the day go by faster too 😉 which is what I say to kids that are on the fence #VCSGreatTeachers

A6: I loved this chapter. Schools that did well didn't just focus on the value of the test scores. They understood the scores mattered but had a significantly broader perspective of student learning. #VCSGreatTeachers

A5: at my previous school we actually did learning walks which were pretty interesting. We went around to observe different classrooms during small group/whole group/math/ELA and then compiled what we got out of it. It was cool to see how everyone did things. #VCSGreatTeachers

A4: teaching people skills is my favorite part. I've always been interested in that part of what we do. I try to integrate it organically when things come up. Which they always do 😂 #VCSGreatTeachers

A3: I hardly ever generalize critiques to families. I'll mass message about important reminders but I try to keep things positive. #vcsgreatteachers

A2: looking to the best makes you better! #VCSGreatTeachers
