Five questions to ask students when inappropriate behavior happens: 1. Why do you think that is ok? 2. Who in your life believes that ok? 3. Where did u learn this (behavior)? 4. How can you help fix this situation? 5. What can we/you do differently next time? #thatonekid #edchat

Relationships matter!

I remember having a 15 minute "break" in between periods in middle school AND high school, usually between 2nd and 3rd period. A downtime to socialize. Anyone else?

What an incredible 2 days of learning! So very grateful to learn alongside Jamie Fieldhouse as we build our capacity to coach our teams in a more effective way. Thank you @mjmaffoni64 and Solution Tree for you a great workshop!!

Readers in Ms. Schneider's class were hard at work identifying powerful moments and identifying author techniques in their book clubs. Great work!! #everypanther

Will this fix every behavior problem? No. Will it help with some? Absolutely. Not every off-task behavior needs a complete stop in instruction. #pickyourbattles

You always have a choice. #choosegratitude

Do it. Be brave. Do the scary thing. Was it perfect? No. Was the experience worth it? 💯% Thank you lead4ward for allowing us to have this opportunity to speak in front of educators today! Thank you Pamila.Nicholas for asking me to be a part of this with you!

Structures, systems, and processes are so important to help all students AND all teachers grow to their maximum potential. #believeit22 #think22

Always be humble and kind.

I loved seeing 6th grade social studies students participate in a socratic seminar today. What great discussions!! #everypanther Vista Ridge Middle

So excited to start our new positive behavior incentive here at Vista Ridge Middle!! Students are nominated by teachers and staff when they are caught doing great things on campus, and then names are drawn each week to pick an item from our vending machine! Congrats! #everypanther

It was pretty spectacular seeing Jamie Fieldhouse in action today! She has a way explaining science concepts in a way that is easy to understand, but will stick. Vista Ridge Middle is lucky to have her! #everypanther
