Spending the day designing great teachers because every student deserves one! #PlanPrioritizePractice @VolusiaLEADS @Hyacinth_TEACH @VCSNTA

Intentionally planning for next year’s mentees! @VolusiaLEADS #MentoringMatters #RelationshipsMatter #TeachingMatters

When mentors build relationships with mentees it enhances their sense of belonging and builds a community, which will lead to teacher retention!@VolusiaLEADS

@Jmdolich They sure do!!!🤣🤣

A4: teaching people skills is my favorite part. I've always been interested in that part of what we do. I try to integrate it organically when things come up. Which they always do 😂 #VCSGreatTeachers

More colleagues joining our discussion later. Be sure to check back in a few days to see what they have to say! #VCSGreatTeachers

Thank you for another great chat! We will see you next week at Beachside at 4:30 for our final meet-up! #VCSGreatTeachers

Modeling active listening also shows the other students you care....and that it is cool! #VCSGreatTeachers

@clc1820 YES!!!! The older students get, the more worried they are about getting something wrong. As teachers, we have the power to change this mindset in our classrooms. #VCSGreatTeachers

A7: We discuss "getting things wrong". I have found more so since moving to third grade that they are afraid to answer incorrectly. We discuss how we ALL get things wrong from time to time but its how we react that matters. We move forward together. #VCSGreatTeachers

Q8 #VCSGreatTeachers

@Spence5Lisa You are exactly right...all areas! #VCSGreatTeachers

A6. Schools who excelled focused on behavior and performance for all areas that ensure academic success. Success and progress each semester is based on teacher and student behaviors #VCSGreatTeachers

The words that keep repeating tonight are positive, students and colleagues! I am noticing a trend from week to week!! #VCSGreatTeachers

Q7 #VCSGreatTeachers

@AcademicAnnVCS Visiting classrooms is my favorite part of my summer school job! #VCSGreatTeachers

A5: Modeling for others comes easier with time; however, I still LOVE watching others teach. I learn so much from watching others. #VCSGreatTeachers

Q6 #VCSGreatTeachers

Peer observation can be a positive tool! #VCSGreatTeachers

Q5 #VCSGreatTeachers

Morning Meetings are so powerful. I wish they could be built into our master schedule. #VCSGreatTeachers

A3 This chapter really made me reconsider general communication notes/emails with parents and colleagues. I reworded an email I wrote this week because of this chapter! #VCSGreatTeachers
