A1: collaboration across grade levels expands the knowledge base of all involved. Ts bring their professional experiences to the table and can share perspectives perhaps not considered when Ts collab only within their own level. #EducationNeverDies

A2: In order to enable creative collab between Ss or Ts, it would be helpful to build vertical schedules to allow common times to come together. Proximity of vertical classrooms could also be explored to facilitate collab. #CrazyPLN #EducationNeverDies

A3: Leaders should explicitly communicate the goal of a collaborative culture. I’ve been in meetings where leaders have deliberately assigned cross grade seating and Ts get upset. Communicate the purpose and seek common beliefs @ the benefit. #EducationNeverDies #CrazyPLN

A4: My most beneficial collab was my team’s professional goal setting when we dove into Ss choice and Ss voice and passion projects. As Ts we learned SO much and it positively changed the way I interact with my Ss. #EducationNeverDies #CrazyPLN

#ThoughtForTheDay The most effective educators not only SEE the best in all kids, they EXPECT the best from all kids. #Culturize

A1: from my experiences the spring, the biggest inequity I saw with my Ss was the amount of support my Ss had at home and the differing degrees of importance that families put on remote learning. #leadupchat

A2: I tried to support families by communicating with my parent group every morning to share things pertinent to them and communicating separately with my Ss. I made personal connections, asked questions, commented with my Ss like I would in person. #leadupchat

#ThoughtForTheDay Always remember that if you are in the right place with the right people you will always feel inspired. If you are not inspired don't lose hope. It just means you are not in the right place...for now. #LiveYourExcellence

A1:We will ask Ss to bring 3 items that are special to them in a paper bag to share. We will also have a Dialogue Circle every morning w/ a question posed by the T so we can get to know one another. #moteacherchat

A2: Although we are starting in person in 2nd grade, my biggest Q or concern was how we would form bonds & relationships if we had to begin virtually if we had never met one another before. #moteacherchat

A3: I really like the Schoology assignments that I have learned to create. I love that they are forced to make a copy that I can then provide feedback about & get notified when the assignments are completed. #moteacherchat

A4: I will differentiate w/small groups, 1-1 work, and individualized, modified assignments, and personal goal setting with my students. #MoTeacherChat

BQ: I wish people knew Ts are not lazily sitting back looking for excuses not to teach; that Ts are no happier @ decisions being made than they are; that we know how high the stakes are; that it breaks our spirit when we hear the teacher bashing. #moteacherchat
