@CMSBTSuccess A4 Even though scary at times, I tried to always be willing to try new things! I had great mentors that helped me navigate new teaching strategies. I did a lot of visiting classrooms of veteran and new teachers in order to keep adding new strategies to my tool belt! #cmsbtchat

@CMSBTSuccess Q2 ASCD shared an interesting article, "Manage Your Classroom with Strong Relationships" last year that I like to share with teachers! They offer strategies for establishing relationships with students, parents, and other educators! ascd.org/ascd-express/v… #cmsbtchat

@CMSBTSuccess Relationships are critical! #cmsbtchat

@CMSBTSuccess A1 Compliance is easy. Authentic engagement means that students do more than just answer a question. It means they have dialogue with us, ask questions at the same time they're engaging in giving us an answer. Students are talking as much as we are. Peter DeWitt #cmsbtchat

@CMSBTSuccess A4 Strong relationships mean everything! Put in the time to develop and it will pay off in the end! #cmsbtchat

@CMSBTSuccess I can't wait! #cmsbtchat

@CMSBTSuccess I have seen only two maker space areas this year and I was so excited by the products and the creativity! I have heard that many more schools will be adding maker spaces to their media centers. I can't wait to see even more next year! #cmsbtchat

@CMSBTSuccess This is a great time to reach out to media specialists for planning for next year. I can remember even when I was a counselor, planning with the media specialists for upcoming group sessions. They were able to help me start book study opportunities for my students! #cmsbtchat

@CMSBTSuccess I have seen great work in media centers when I visit schools. The media specialist is a valuable partner especially when teachers want to expose their children to a variety of resources on a particular topic! Takes a little pre-planning but the result can be fabulous! #cmsbtchat
