I am a BIG believer in this!. Learning how to work with and lead multi-generational teams is a valuable skill that is transferable across industries! . And as a former global communications teacher, knowing how to deliver messages to these different audiences is magic too!.

Have you ever heard a colleague say, “I like the older kids bc you can be sarcastic”. Yeaaaaaa. No. IF that works, it’s only AFTER you’ve established TRUST with a student. Strong-willed Ss who do not trust adults will never respond positively to sarcasm. Trust comes first.

What do you do with those Exit Tickets, post-it’s, and note cards? Data Driven Instruction isn’t limited to pie charts and bar graphs on a LMS platform. 📉📊

How do you teach classroom procedures?. I don’t. 😆. Students went on a scavenger hunt to find what makes our classroom work! .Thanks @BrandySheltonN1 for the idea! 💡

Setting the tone for the school year with MY own children is significant work and I pray us educator mommas do not forget to prioritize that. Do not cease to sustain that work. This was tonight’s bedtime story! #TheMagicalYet
