@MsDadaTeach Awwww. I so rarely go on Twitter that I didn't see this til now. I'm honored to be your Mrs Ravenswood. There is nothing better than freshly baked bread! ❤️

@MrsBoyensELL thank you for being my Mrs. Ravenswood ❤️ You have always made me feel like a loaf of freshly baked bread 🍞

Why admins should cluster language learners! So many benefits. Having small groups of 5-8 per class provides more time for the lang specialist to provide support instead of running to 5 classes w/ only 2 LLs.

@KKrzyszkowski @ms_taamallah check it out. QSSSA via Zoom.

We may read or observe the same thing but interpret it differently. Individual experiences shape comprehension. 🔎Background knowledge 🔎Lived experiences 🔎Prior knowledge

@SearcyPrairie2 @Naperville203 This is hilarious. I may steal it next week!

Keeping engagement. “For participating, great thinkers, and killer ideas, I’ll put a sticker on my face” 🤣🤣🤣#TikTokteacherpd I wish I remembered he teacher that shared this idea! #prairiepride #youmatter #203unites @Naperville203

@mrseberlyteach @MsDadaTeach That bossy Mrs. Boyens has your back, Suh-Fuh.

@MsDadaTeach @MrsBoyensELL Once @MrsBoyensELL told me I try to say it right every time! And tell others! 💛💛

Hearing my name pronounced correctly by my coworkers is music to my ears every day! How are we, as educators, making sure we are pronouncing our students names correctly? instagram.com/p/CGbJT5-huBz/… #representationmatters #diverseliterature #diversebooks #bookstagram

@MsDadaTeach Awwww. 💕

S/o to @MrsBoyensELL for being the teacher mentioned in my IG post who not only made sure to learn my name, but made sure all our colleagues did as well ❤️

As we prepare to return to in-person school, I thought these free books were worth a share. #covidteaching autismlittlelearners.com/search/label/C…

@MsDadaTeach @contiveros203 Yay! I'm so glad you're enjoying it!!!

@contiveros203 🥰🥰🥰 let me know if you want to borrow it once life gets back to normal! @MrsBoyensELL gifted it to me for my graduation so I know you will totally love it. You both are such inspirations ❤️

Thank you @MsDadaTeach for being a strong advocate for your students and an inspiring colleague to us all! Can't wait to take a look at this resource! #naperville203 #BetterTogether

Great article highlighting common assumptions about family #engagement during #remotelearning: tinyurl.com/ybmgsyg2. Thx @Tolerance_org!

@WT3rdGraders @MsDadaTeach And then celebrate the heck out of the kids that do something with the feedback!

@MrsBoyensELL @MsDadaTeach What’s your secret? I’m using Google Classroom and Seesaw and spending A LOT of time writing comments that seem to be written to the Bermuda Triangle. 🤷🏼‍♀️

😁🤩🤗 <-- The feeling when one of your newcomers reads your feedback from the last assignment and REVISES her writing during remote learning. This student does NOT have the support of an English-speaking family member at home, so this is huge! 🎉 @MsDadaTeach #together203

@WT3rdGraders @MsDadaTeach We also created step by step videos about how to write each section with lots of visual support, sentence starters, and a model paragraph for each day. We are only teaching one paragraph at a time. The kids watch the videos as mini-lessons. Slow and steady... Hope that helps!

@WT3rdGraders @MsDadaTeach What language are you writing the comments in? I will NEVER claim to have the secret sauce, but what is working for this student is writing the comment in English, translating it into her home language, and putting that FIRST in the comments.

A great way to heal a teacher's broken heart after receiving news about school being closed for the remainder of the school year is to participate in a bday caravan for a student. #together203 #TogetherWeCan

@missbrothers4 @mrseberlyteach This is really funny. Very clever, Stacy!
