@MsMKHistory Go straight from school before u get to think about tiredness or hunger. Its the only thing that works for me.

Question for teachers: how do you find time to work out during the school week? I’m usually so exhausted at the end of the school day it’s impossible to force myself to go to the gym

@thewhitmore Family, busy, celebrations

Great to see the world returning to normal in Ireland, confident @DHA_Dubai won’t let other countries beat us. Come on Dubai, we’ve got this!! #newnormal #covid #recoveryplansbringinghope

I love teaching geometry. So easy to make real life connections and get students up and moving. Here is my class making parallel lines. @GEMS_ME #WeRGIS #Grade3 #reallifeconnections

Super impressed with this group of students & their mentor @emzystjojo for their great focus on #SharingThePlanet; looking at ‘Human activities impact on marine life’. A particular area of interest & passion of mine. Great work guys!! 🌊🐬🐟🐳 #PYP #PYPExhibition #PYPChat #EdChat

Effective teachers are not naive about their challenges… but they focus on what they can control -- the quality of their instruction to students and the quality of their interaction with students.

So nice to see students getting creative in thinking of new safe ways to enjoy their Daily Mile time. #balance #creative #agency #DailyMile #WeRGIS @GIS_Gems

Tuning In! How can we build a tower that will hold a tennis ball? What process did we use? What would we do differently next time? @GIS_Gems #howtheworldworks #WeRGIS #thinkingskills #reflective

Ms. Diana came to read to 3C today for #WorldReadAloudDay. Students loved it and nice to hear someone else's voice for a change! Thanks to @ReadJaguarsRead for organizing. #community #WeRGIS #promotereading @GIS_Gems

One of the best thing an educator can do in the course of the day is to have a conversation with a student about something other than school.

Chalk Talk is one of my favorite preassessment tools to use when Tuning In to a new concept. @GIS_Gems #WeRGIS #tuningin #multiplication #grade3 #PK #socialdistancefriendly
