A shift I continue to really believe: having students reflect not just on strengths/growth areas but also choices they made as writers before submitting. (And also committing to balanced teacher feedback between celebrations and next steps—no matter how strong the essay is!)
I kept the innovative sentences resource mostly in my back pocket until our final unit—which is all about storytelling. Very excited to dive into this in the week ahead!
"I could work on [...] trying not to be so hard on myself." One of the reasons I really believe in frequently embedding reflection space in assignments: it gives students a chance to let you know how they're doing and what they need. (this is from our spiral notebook turn-in)
This episode w/@MarcusLuther6 is AMAZING! I became interested in what Marcus does with #reflection in his classroom when @Scandela9 interviewed him. Enjoy! @CAEddleman After listening, be sure to take a look at his feed!🔥🔥 ⬇️Listen Here⬇️ spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/f5jVywn16Ib

Teaching HS sophomores is magical because, during the last two months of school, they blossom into the ppl they’ll grow up to be. It’s not happening that way this year? They’re regressing to old behaviors that I was sure we’d squashed. Is anyone else experiencing this?
We do a memorized speech practice in Public Speaking in which students choose part of a poem, monologue, or song to commit to memory. Probably the most common selection: Kat Stratford's class poem from 10 Things I Hate About You. Classic.
@tbelmontedu But mine had to do a monologue from Macbeth. They had two or three choices, I can’t remember now. But most would choose “tomorrow and tomorrow”. During the month we did this, it was such a joy to hear kids reciting Macbeth to each other to practice - all around school.
@MarcusLuther6 Thank you for sharing, Marcus! I use something similar to this over the year (at end of each assignment/term & at year’s end) but mine is a bit longer and yours keeps it nice and sharp!
@MarcusLuther6 How wonderful this student was able to make such an insightful self reflection!
Just how much learning is lost when schools go through three weeks of state testing? I don't want to know what the answer is.
3/ Sit with ambiguity In complex environments we don't know for sure why something happened - complexity limits causal reasoning. We must spend time working out how we can best characterise the problem we are facing. Only then can we look for alternative actions to test.
Teacher learning and student learning - are they really so similar? Here's my take and why it matters for teacher training -🧵
There’s often a chasm between a student’s ability to master a skill and being able to show mastery on a standardized test.
I appreciate this question but it is clear a lot of the respondents are not working in classrooms
Is the phone ban at schools just another example of an older generation fear and prejudice against new technology? The same way our parents thought TV would rot our brains. Or is this a unique problem because of the addictive nature of phones and social media?
@MarcusLuther6 I always made them do a middle ranking explanation. It's often easy to explain why one is the top or the bottom, but justifying why one is higher than x but lower than y is a whole different level of rigor!
So many times recently I’ve watched an admin deal with something wild and said a silent prayer appreciating the relative simplicity (not ease 😅) of *just* teaching kids.
The bitterness toward Ed leadership roles… these roles exist for a reason. All leaders aren’t great, but some are and the roles are necessary for the function of a school/district. Ts don’t do payroll, etc. I’m sure Ts don’t want to given the many mandated tasks already.
@MarcusLuther6 Yesss another teacher using Yaa Gyasi! I'm stealing this activity. 🤌🏾
@MarcusLuther6 @mrbgilson Wow! Thanks for this share!
@MarcusLuther6 I teach AP Lang and use Richard III as the anchor text for a unit on misinformation. I bought a box of “What Do You Meme” cards and have the kids caption them with captions relevant to the play. I get funny results every time!
@MarcusLuther6 Hexagonal thinking is one of my absolute favorite activities in my history classes. My AP students request it as we finish each unit. They like how it forces then to process connections.
@MarcusLuther6 Just did hexagons on Friday. It always get the conversation flying.
