Ever heard a student say, "When will I ever use math?" P @kellyparksocs's school community offers these real-world examples to spark answers!

Disappointment comes from knowing things could be better. Gratitude flows from knowing things could be worse. We don't control events, but we do choose our outlook. Where we focus shapes how we feel. For most people in most places, this is the best time in history to be alive.

Students are different and differentiate instruction makes a difference… as do healthy snacks! Engagement matters - teach to their interests Momentum matters Reading a whole book matters Reading makes it possible to take care of yourself The world opens up for students who read

Our students come with a big bag of negative feelings about reading so we have to keep pluggin away to reshape their beliefs I’m seeing improvement from last year Ability to read improves confidence

Our @KKPCA1 Read 180 Teachers are gathered today and these are our beliefs about reading: All students can all get better All students can grow, and it helps to have a growth mindset and openness to know they can learn

This #MentoringMonday wisdom seems timely! Many classrooms are now comfortable with One Teach/One Assist - now it's time to heat it up a notch! Two teachers increase our options to teach and assess - let's use manpower wisely! #SPEDucatorsrock #inclusion #spedchat
