I just had this conversation with my 6th grade #EBs today. We did a 'shelf walk' of our classroom library. If they didn't see one for them, they headed to Google and I'm making a list of books to purchase!

Education is not something you can finish because learning is a lifelong process. The world is constantly evolving, with new discoveries, technologies, and ways of thinking emerging all the time. We must always keep learning to stay informed, adapt, and grow. #CelebrateMonday

End of year is when I start reminding my #newcomers about News in Levels. I want to make sure they know what they can be doing every day without me to continue their language acquisition. Here is a blog post I wrote about that.

Creating a safe classroom culture & building relationships w/students will help to determine the function of a behavior. I believe understanding their needs & why they need access to/escape from something is essential for supporting them NISD SEB #SEBChallenge13 #SkyhawkPride
