“The world around us has evolved, and education is not exempt from needing to evolve as well.” - Richard Culatta, CEO of ISTE-ASCD #EdReform @EL_ASCD Richard Culatta Who’s ready to be a changemaker? 🙋🏻‍♀️

When we consider the human needs of highly effective PLCs, how might we use these questions to assist in rebuilding our teams and, as a result, positively affect the culture of a school?

Struggling w/classroom mgmt? Probably need some T-S strategies. Pete Hall Kristin Souers have been helping T’s use trauma-sensitive strategies since pre-covid #aheadoftheirtime #wildlycurrent #coolbeforeitwascool

Strong Tier 1 Instruction w/differentiation is key.

Asking educators to buy in to something, without truly supporting their human needs to own it for themselves, is like having a circus bear ride a bicycle…it might look like the way you wanted it to, but isn’t it just a show?

In education, our workload is directly tied to the needs of our students. Knowing much of their needs are beyond immediate our control, what CAN we do, as a system, to make our responsibilities more manageable?

Educators: as we get ready to greet our students this year, some with unfinished learning, let’s remember that “meet them where they are” does not mean walk alongside them…it means give them the ladder they need to climb this year. Let’s get ready to grow!

Could not be more proud of the AMAZING work of our team as we welcomed RHS newest teachers! #ReadytoRock #RockSolid @RockHillSchJob Rock Hill Schools

What an awesome first day of ‘23-‘24! Smiling faces, pre-planned routines, and a #RockSolid start! Proud of our teachers, admins, students & parents for making it happen! @RockHillSchJob Rock Hill Schools

When greeting students at your door: Say the student’s name, make eye contact, give a few words of encouragement, ask how their day is going edutopia.org/article/welcom…

Get to Know You Jenga and Fishbowl conversations were the highlight of today’s PLC meeting for our Deans of Student Leadership! The collaboration, camaraderie, and community were on point! #RockSolid Rock Hill Schools @RockHillSchJob Rock Hill Schools Professional Learning

We talk about the impact T’s have on Ss. Ss impact Ts, also. This sweet lady introduced herself on my 1st day Ting an 8th gr class midyear & said “Hi, I love to help!” That one intro told me it was going to be ok. Now she’s studying to be a nurse. #RockSolid Rock Hill Schools

Loved #ThinkAgain so much and has changed the way I approach all things. Can’t wait for a copy of #HiddenPotential! Adam Grant always has insight to provoke and empower.

There’s something super satisfying about seeing your students become experts at offering considerate, detailed & impactful peer feedback. 🤝 Copy + use my Peer Feedback #ChoiceBoard to watch the magic happen: bit.ly/46cSSWI #StudentFeedback #EdChat #EduTwitter

To keep students motivated, teachers are better off avoiding knee-jerk responses to disruption. The most effective classroom management strategies are based on building relationships, research suggests. 🌟 Learn more: edut.to/3FHZQru
