A7: I believe the message to teachers & students should be “less is more.” We cannot replicate the school day online, nor should we should try. Teachers need the space to navigate this challenging moment without pressure to keep pace w/a pre-pandemic pacing guide. #FETCchat

Stop!!!! Thank you for your good intentions but just stop. Everyone is freaking out. Trying to survive. Has a variety of internet access (hello? My 7 year old doesn't have his own computer) and need TIME to GRIEVE and adjust. Keep it LIGHT! No, LIGHTER. PLEASE – at Fresno, CA
Already hearing that student/parent anxiety is escalating with this new eLearning reality. We may be inadvertently making things worse by pouncing with work & trying to rush normalcy. Connect on an emotional level first; the learning will come. #bced #ATAssessment #GFIO

"What if every teacher tweeted one thing they did in their classroom to a school hashtag and took five minutes a day to read others?" If you follow @gcouros you have seen this in action and seen the difference it can make. Try it. @SD69Qualicum #BCSTAAcademy Also great school PR

Absolutely! It’s often harder for #math teachers to visualize but it can definitely work. If you or a math teacher you work with has any interest in writing a guest blog describing how they’ve moved feedback into a station rotation, I’d love to share it on my blog! – at Sonoma, CA
Sending this one out to my #NPMathKnights. This assessment strategy can work for Station Rotation in Math as well. Small group learning can create space for meaningful feedback and authentic assessment opportunities. #NPSDPD
