Lots of great questions here to ensure students are doing the thinking when conferring!

Check out Lauren Calvert getting the major kudos she deserves!! Our campus students and staff are SO fortunate to have her in our corner. She supports all she meets and does so with consistent commitment to improving learning for all. Congrats!!

I've been reading Atomic Habits and with each page I can see a new way to use this as a mentor text in the classroom! The intro for a memoir, the section on identity for informative writing. It even talks about the Latin root for identity! #mayde4ela amazon.com/dp/0735211299/…

Gators dove deep into their strengths through an article study and team building activity. The group dynamics and how each team uses their strengths was really amazing to see! #mayde4strengths #maydeusproud

Most people are taught to work on their weaknesses -- to fix them. But instead, they should be learning how their strengths can overshadow their weaker areas. #cliftonstrengths #focusonyourstrengths
