#growthmindset I don’t understand why it is that an “honors” student is exempt from this practice. Educators are more willing to let a Non-Honors student reassess but somehow the actual “honors” student isn’t? Thoughts @Ron_Martiello

As the year ends and I begin thinking and planning for a new. I only wish this was a mindset more people had. #growthmindset seems to be a topic that many people like to talk about but few are willing to embrace and put it into practice.
Yes I will give a student a second, third, forth.......chance! As many chances as it takes for a child to succeed! That’s my job, that’s what I signed up for - to be the difference, to go one more round! #relentless

@McDonalds⁩ this is not acceptable. I don’t eat fast food often but when I just want some fries, come on now don’t rip me off. #mcdonaldssucks

It saddens me to think that @Ron_Martiello and I have had to put #AMPclass a little towards the back burner bc of State Assess. Can’t wait to get back to what truly matters and the kids too. #edchat how have State Tests ruined your Ss learning and Environment?#Mathchat #PAedchat
When we did we get to pt where Systems of Eqs are considered to be more valid than understanding linear growth for an 8th Gr State Asses? The Saga of American education a mile wide and an inch deep continues. #edchat #mathchat 3 behind Malta!?!? #PSSA why?

#teaching #edchat As a once Art Ed turned Math T, I think my biggest struggle is having a mind that wants to thinks outside the box and encouraged to do so in one sentence, then only to her the word Dale Carnegie said to never use, BUT...and then you are tossed back in the box.
#edchat #mathchat @gcouros posted an article about retaking tests, I can’t stop thinkn bout how the other sides stance is always. Ss need to learn to take it seriously the 1st time. Any1 willing to Argue MJ didn’t take his 1st tryout seriously? 2nd chance 2 greatest of all time

This idea that there are no 2nd chances in life is an Ed myth created to try to get Ss to take is serious the 1st time. I just don’t agree. I’d rather hear the more honest opinion that we are time strapped and when there is no time in the day to make or grade 2nd Test. #edchat

Showing different sides of the issue in this post makes it a compelling read. Would be great for a staff discussion - Letting Students Re-Take Tests: A Classroom Dilemma Over Goals for Schools* ino.to/6QzyPX1

#edchat #AMPclass #mathchat Great podcast! Fav quote When talking to Pasi Sahlburg- he says best ideas come from the US the difference is we do something about it and the US doesn’t. This PC says a lot of things I’ve been thinking/feeling for awhile. itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/…

It’s a BIG part of a teacher’s life. Tell us about the best grading advice you’ve ever received.

A1: I would tell them the only true classroom management tool is developing meaningful relationships but also being firm and fair. You don’t have to yell for a kid to understand their are consequences for their actions. #TellYourStory
