NL kindergartners practicing the letter sounds for l, h, & k in their Geodes book while learning how gardeners in Hawaii grow orchids in a green house to make a lei. So engaging! #Geodes @NewLebAP22 @NewLebAP @GreenwichPSELA

When educators are told to replace locally-relevant, responsive instruction for a packaged program, science isn't in use. A process of integrating new information with existing knowledge & assets is more scientific than replacing one with the other. youtu.be/zJbDuHjKcSo

NL 5th gr. IB Exhibition was amazing! Students shared their passion topics with younger students & their families about global issues.@NewLebPrincipal @NewLebAP @GPSDistrict

@JCSPrincipal @JCSEaglesAP @DrJones_GPS @GPSDistrict @ECarabillo JC teachers are very awesome!

Valerie Bolling author of #Letsdance an amazing new picture book presented to our JC students this week. Students were so excited, especially for the dance party!

New Leb 1st graders were so excited to get a sneak peek of our very own @valerie_bolling’s first published picture book, Let’s Dance! The kids learned all about different dances from around the world & the job of an author with Valerie. 💃🏾

The single biggest factor in reading achievement is volume of reading. And what’s one of the best ways to boost volume? Get kids hooked on a series! @missalissanyc #tcrwp

@WanderlustEdu This book is so good a must read!

Has anyone read this? Thoughts? Might be my next read....

JC 1st graders creating their own topic bins & filling them with books! #studentownership @JCSPrincipal @JCSEaglesAP @GreenwichpsCIPL @DrJones_GPS

According to Darling-Hammond (2009), for a teacher to learn a new skill to the extent that it will positively impact student learning, they need approximately 50 hours of professional development (which includes coaching). How might we transform adult learning with this in mind?
