As education leaders plan for multiple options at a district level, they could be tapping into teachers’ knowledge and experiences to generate ideas that “lead to actual positive outcomes for education rather than simply mitigating harm.” @KaraNewhouse ow.ly/kMpe50ACvBN

Dear Governor Reynolds - Should your decision on opening schools in Iowa hold, please be prepared to take 100% accountability for the sickness, death and political fallout that is going to undoubtably occur. Our beloved teachers are about to become front-line workers.

I think I am more exhausted working from home because I draw energy from being around my students and my colleagues. Zooming everyday is a good substitute, but the spirit of spontaneous energy in the physical school environment is something I love.

A bad five minutes is just that—a bad five minutes. It’s not a bad day unless you choose to make it a reason to have a bad day.

- Instead of “Calm down.” Try “Breathe. I’m here to help.”- We love these helpful ideas of how to rethink our use of words to help us adults empathize, relate, & reach kids whether in or outside of the classroom. #ThinkKids #CPSapproach #SEL #KindnessMatters via @WeAreTeachers
Our words really can impact our students' success. 💚 #SEL #KindnessMatters A few small adjustments can make a BIG difference: weareteachers.com/positive-l…
