So great to hear from 2 lovely ladies who are using their Educator Voices to impact their schools and students! Great to see all the #NCAEILI Year 2 peeps on the Zoom call! @Ms_Lumsden @peacock_sabrina @ShemikaBanuelos @Ms_Troxell @Saletta_Urena @MsG1023 @PhoenixElon99 @ncae

Y’all, take this Opportunity Checklist! It matters. pages.email.nea.org/your-school-ch… @MsSchneiderWF Spread the link!

Coffee is necessary, but my “why” is because every child deserves the opportunity to be literate which, in my not-so-humble opinion, is the key to a successful life. #ncaeili #mywhy

Best parts about returning to ILI are seeing all the friendly, familiar, smiling faces and getting excited for this school year! #NCAEILI

Back to ILI! Brooke Gartley, WSFCS, English classroom teacher #NCAEILI

@kalee_hill @Ms_Arithmetic @TheMsValente @StoneTangie @enbiggs @RoyalEdutainer @teach27529 @HLRteach @Shannonstaley3 Agreed! Self advocacy is paramount. I actually only call parents for upperclassmen after I’ve had a few conversations with the student and given the student a chance to improve a bit. I also call if I see a dramatic change in behavior.

@Ms_Arithmetic @TheMsValente @StoneTangie @enbiggs @RoyalEdutainer @teach27529 @kalee_hill @HLRteach @Shannonstaley3 When it comes to secondary, I often get parents who tell me that their child is grown and can make their own choices. It’s a tough attitude to combat! Bridging that gap is not easy. It’s something you have to approach on a case by case basis.

@Ms_Arithmetic @TheMsValente @StoneTangie @enbiggs @RoyalEdutainer @teach27529 @kalee_hill @HLRteach @Shannonstaley3 @MrThompson3 I struggle with this one!! I send some personal emails out but this is tough for me.

@Ms_Arithmetic @TheMsValente @StoneTangie @enbiggs @RoyalEdutainer @teach27529 @kalee_hill @HLRteach @Shannonstaley3 @MrThompson3 With the exception of Remind, I usually stick to school email and phone. Easier to trace and provide evidence if something goes awry! My administration also prefers email/phone contact.

@TheMsValente @Ms_Arithmetic @StoneTangie @enbiggs @RoyalEdutainer @teach27529 @kalee_hill @HLRteach @Shannonstaley3 I use Remind for my classroom as well; parents seem to get more involved with that!

@Ms_Arithmetic @StoneTangie @enbiggs @MsG1023 @RoyalEdutainer @teach27529 @kalee_hill @HLRteach @Shannonstaley3 I do think social media helps a lot today to engage parents and the community with the school. I do not use any type of social media in my class with my students. Although when I am doing something for a great lesson I will tweet it out. How info is communicated can make a diffe

@Ms_Arithmetic @TheMsValente @StoneTangie @enbiggs @RoyalEdutainer @teach27529 @kalee_hill @HLRteach @Shannonstaley3 A2: I use this Twitter account but I don’t do much with it if I’m being honest! #ILIBees

When you dodge the group pic and then lie to your coach, you have to take a pic by yourself for the Internet. 😂😂 #shelooksthrilled
