I've always had a gift of reaching the tough Ss. It's tiring but building great relationships always is. I had 6 of them hang out in my room because they were having issues in other rooms. Knowing I'm not returning next yr made me 😭. I hope their new teacher ❤️ them like I do.
This right here 👇
Don't give up. Don't give up on that 1 s who pulls their hoodie over their eyes. Or the 1 who sleeps in class. Don't give up on the challenging behaviors. All kids want the same thing. To be seen, heard & loved.
Reminded by this, this week. My sweet cousin(41) lost her battle against cancer, on Sunday. She left behind a 13y/o, 15y/o & 19y/o. She will be missed terribly.
How did we go from State testing in 1-2 days to now an entire month? Our district basically tests the entire month of April. We have one week in between ELA & Math. Make up testing &Sped Ss are on those "off" weeks. So, basically we are finished with teaching any new content.
It's important to teach Ss to advocate for themselves & peers. Step 1 =communication skills. A student was struggling with big emotions & walked out of class. I gave him space to decompress. When he returned, he apologized then clarified what upset him. Baby steps = progress.
Hope you have a great weekend. Remember to carve out some time for self-care. Take a walk or take a much needed nap. (Teachers know this is the hardest part of the school year) Whatever you do, recharge for the week ahead.
State testing. The ENTIRE testing system crashed yesterday. We had to pivot. Ss had to adapt. It was rough.Not as rough as today. Had a few meltdowns. Pressure kicked in. Spent the rest of the day managing behavior w/o a break to eat or run to the RR. Teacher life. 🤪
It was so worth the wait! We experienced 100% totality! Please share your pictures or videos if you have any. Amazing experience!
We are finishing the year with reading The Giver. I want to make this a fun project for my students. If you have taught this novel, please share any projects/fun activities you did. TIA
Well that went fast! Last day of Spring Break. 😞 Today, I promised myself I wouldn't spend the day prepping for school. We all know how easy it is to get sucked into the abyss! 🤣 I hope you have a great Monday! Let's make it count! 🥰
Mommy dropped the ball. Didn't think she would care... Boy was I wrong! 🤣 Happy Easter everyone!
Hope all of you have been able to unplug from school life and spend quality time with your family and friends. 🫶🏻

3K Followers 3K Following Mom, Wife, grandma, 3rd grade teacher, curriculum geek, active, passionate, reader,believer, and adventurer. https://t.co/GKrGzwwpvR…@Anchored2911 A real celebration would include everyone, regardless of growth or grade level. People who didn’t grow can still celebrate those who did. This was a reward, not a celebration.
@Anchored2911 Our district policy is to not use food as a reward or punishment, but many of our schools do this same type of activity. I called it out to district level admin.
@Anchored2911 If they met grade level standards, they actually grew from last year. No one suggests meeting the grade level standards of year 12 means zero growth from year 1 standards.
@Anchored2911 yeah my school no longer celebrates honor roll. they have an award assembly but the awards are essentially kindest kid, teacher’s favorite, most improved, etc. No awards for top grades. They said it makes the other students “feel bad.”. But they celebrate every athletic win.
@Anchored2911 Unless the suggestion is that this was the only academic celebration of the year, then I’m not sure this differs very much from celebrating musicians or athletes. Every one deserves their moment in the Sun
@Anchored2911 Yesss! This would’ve been my son too, if AR was part of his elementary years. But also as a spec Ed teacher, this program was so harmful for my kiddos. 😢
@Anchored2911 Unless the suggestion is that this was the only academic celebration of the year, then I’m not sure this differs very much from celebrating musicians or athletes. Every one deserves their moment in the Sun
@Anchored2911 My son consistently scores several grade levels high on tests. We didn't expect growth in academics for him. He also is autistic, and would not accept that he would be excluded from such a celebration.
@Anchored2911 This sounds as bad as those miserable AR parties they used to have at the schools I taught at in the mid-to-late aughts.
@Anchored2911 At or above grade level should show growth during the year also. That is why we enrich for them. They may just have a slower rate of growth. Sounds like a test flaw.
@Anchored2911 Actually, S's who at or above grade level might see it as a reward not to have to take a standardized test! Why is it such a positive that S's had to take the test? All can still be celebrated - even those exempt from taking the test because they are already doing well...
@Anchored2911 This should’ve been a whole school celebration. Period. Also, my daughter has been honored twice this year at her HS by her teachers. It was an event after school hours, and parents were emailed privately about it. That’s how you do these sorts of things.
@Anchored2911 @mayak46 Agree! Our StuCo is working on ice cream for all when the number of assignments on the Zero List is below a certain number for all 7-12. Let's win together.
@Anchored2911 I don't like this stuff. They would have class dojo parties and leave my child out for some infraction he didn't understand. Building comaraderie with achievement is way more important in my opinion.
@Anchored2911 The person who made this decision has no understanding of tests and measurement. I assume this was iReady or another adaptive assessment. I can easily predict the 5 Ss that will make the most/least growth on iReady in September based on the fall score and previous years' scores.
@dylanwiliam @Anchored2911 Dr. Wiliam, what are your thoughts on looking at median classroom growth scores on adaptive tests like iReady. I understand issues with individual growth scores. Thoughts on looking at median classroom growth scores?
@techknowmath @Anchored2911 I absolutely agree. Belonging means creating a space that honors and celebrates everyone.
