Violet Band started the Math Block yesterday and today with a conversation about communication. This was a conversation, not just a quick lesson delivered by Kaylie. She asked questions, listened to the learners, and thought about their contributions to … instagr.am/p/CjTVSa3pDhJ/

We’ve been in an inquiry about the phrase "intellectual fearlessness” used by the psychologist and economist Daniel Kahneman in his book Thinking, Fast and Slow. Earlier this week, learners in Sage and Crimson bands joined the conversation. We captured s… instagr.am/p/Ch6zZJxuP_S/

The language we use as teachers, educators, leaders, informs the way we think. As we go about our day to day work, it is important to take time to think carefully about how we talk about teaching, learning, our learners, and the mathematics we teach. I… instagr.am/p/ChYfdoxt0PJ/

Come join some of my awesome colleagues for an interesting discussion about being an innovative math educator!

Reading with accuracy, reading with fluency, reading with meaning, and reading with pleasure = the big four from Kathy Collins @TCRWP Supper Club

Hmm, Kathy Collins was just talking about the idea of connecting fluency to engagement! Interesting. Of course, this would be important, yet I've alway focused on fluency only in terms of comprehension. #reading

Kathy Collins is the beloved coauthor or author of I Am Reading, Growing Readers, and Reading for Real. She works in schools all over the world to support teachers in developing high-quality, effective literacy instruction in the elementary school grades. #TCRWP

Excited to join @TCRWP Supper Club tonight with Kathy Collins!

Your first job doesn't have to make the world a better place. It just needs to make you better. It's not selfish to invest in your own development. You do that when you go to college, and it applies to your early career too. Learning today prepares you for more impact tomorrow.
