3 Things to Do Today: 1. Don't get caught in the comparison trap. Comparison is the thief of joy. 2. Focus on what you can control (your actions, effort, and attitude) and let go of the rest. 3. Be “The Seed” and make a difference where you are.

Good tips!
"Asynchronous" will be a watchword in the coming school year. If you're thinking of making videos to serve the diverse needs of your remote learners, here are tips to keep it highly engaging. Excerpted from the fantastic work of @kareemfarah23 and @barnett_tweets.

I love Leah Alcala's alternative method for grading tests. She found that when she put a grade on it, "kids would look at their grade, decide whether they were good at math or not, and put the test away." Here's her method: teachingchannel.org/videos/m… #iteachmath #MTBoS

Good read! Teaching online has some differences, but some aspects of teaching should stay the exact same!
This post had me from the first recommendation “1.The first weeks of school should be devoted to community building & digital competency” but the whole list is spot on! 9 Ways Online Teaching Should be Different from Face-to-Face #edchat #onlinelearning cultofpedagogy.com/9-ways-on…
Love these for helping students express their mathematical thinking through writing and even in their dialogue with one another.

This one is very special for me because I made it for my daughter & her classmates to have all their distance learning assignments & resources together -on the cover, instead of days, I put the different subjects. It was a hit among these 4th graders!🥰 slidesmania.com/a-weekly-pla…

Heinemann just posted K-5 math tasks/games on the Math in Practice website. They are posted by grade level so you can access games specific to your students' skills. Fact fluency games for grades 1-5 include a Spanish version. @heinemannpub #mathinpractice heinemann.com/mathinpractice…
