If your child has a phone, the world has access to your child. That's the reality...

Your brain starts to sync up with the brains around you while learning, new research says. How can you put that to work in your classroom? 🤔

Our first #SuncoastRemakeDays is this Saturday and it will be EPIC! Come join us for this FREE fun family event. #RemakeDays.

Avoiding labeling kids (ES= 0.61 or 1.5 years' learning) isn't about fairness; it's about potential. Every child deserves to be seen for the learner they can become, not the label we stick on them. Let's nurture potential, not limits.

Today, we remember and honor the legacy of Harry Wong, author of 'The First Days of School,' a timeless guide that has inspired educators worldwide. His insights continue to shape the way we approach teaching and learning. Thank you for everything Mr. Wong. 🍎 #HarryWong #RIP

This #NationalCareerDevelopmentMonth, empower your students to identify their interests and potential career paths so they can work toward them with intention and determination.💪 You can encourage career awareness with these classroom ideas. bit.ly/3FPiyNR #K12 #STEMed

#STEM is not just a name we put on a school... STEM is not a curriculum we buy… STEM is not dependent on getting a grant… STEM is not something just for special days with some of our students... STEM is about making learning relevant for EVERY kid in EVERY classroom EVERY day

If you follow the 5E Model for planning and add technology to it, you end up with a very powerful way to bring the curriculum to life for all students. sbee.link/8e97mjkahf @tceajmg #teachersoftwitter #educoach #learning

Scaffolds are meant to be TEMPORARY. Otherwise, we'd still be looking at the Statue of Liberty like this... It's no different for learning. Scaffolds were meant to be used & then eventually taken down.

Often learning & growth requires us to unlearn what we always accepted. It's awkward. It's hard. It's uncomfortable. It's identity-challenging. But it's also how we improve & make things better for all. Unlearn to learn.

Scaffolding has a weighted effect size of 0.52, as of the latest research, and has the potential to considerably accelerate student learning. Learn more about scaffolding techniques in this webinar led by @jtalmarode and @NancyFrey: ow.ly/1cKQ50PGU4z

It’s been fun helping staff recognize each other! @WilkinsonSCS #WilkinsonRising
