We all know that kids in the school have “reputations.” Well… the adults have reputations too. I hope to be known as the one who always brings positive energy, the one who supports my colleagues, & the one who is all about the kids. How were you known this year?

We can't expect our students to do something that we adults don't do. x.com/justintarte/st…

Tice Creek Spirit Day! #tcspirit Tice Creek

Can you guess my favorite sports team? #TCSpirit Tice Creek

Thought for the day: 1. Focus on what S's are doing rather than what they aren't doing 2. Kids who frustrate us the most are the ones who need us the most 3. Believe all kids are good even when they don't believe it themselves Be the catalyst that sparks a change..via #Culturize

I'm comfortable giving the student who needed 4 attempts to master a skill the same grade as the student who only needed 1 attempt. 'If' a student learns is more important to me than 'when.'

Terrific read Leslie Beatson Years ago I shifted to 50% as the lowest grade, no extra credit and allowing redo. It dramatically changed my class environment and student success. x.com/lrbeat/status/…

Can you imagine going to a job interview and saying "I don't learn things very fast. I like to keep doing things the same old way. I need lots of help" ??

Why does it matter if it takes a kid 100 times to learn something, the point was to learn it. Steve Isaacs

Thought for the day: Educators who are dreamers & disruptors live in a "What if?" world. They encourage staff & students to focus on the part that asks, "What if we went for it? What if we did this instead? What if we allowed ourselves & S's to be different?" ...via #Culturize

The concept of a lesson plan makes little sense since a teacher executes a lesson within the context of a set of lessons that serve a common purpose. It's an ineffective practice to plan one lesson at a time. We should plan from the perspective of a unit. #NASOT
