"Community can be built every day, in every interaction with another person, when you listen, bridge differences, and embrace healthy conflict. Know what kind of community you want to be a part of and to create, and then move to build it." (Onward, p. 122)

When you miss out on TCTELA but your boss brings back books you fall in love with, you know you've got the best job ever! Seriously can't get enough of this read tonight. #storymatters @AmiLRuby @CFISD712ela

Teachers must feel SAFE - emotionally and physically - in order to create a safe environment for their kids. (How) Do we show we care about them? (How) Do we encourage them to ask for help? To make mistakes? (How) Do they have the right to say no? #CultureOfSafety

Great question!
Students who know what they are learning are more likely to actually learn it (William, 2011). Do your students know where they are going EVERY day? #DailyLearningIntentions #education #PLC #AskFisherFrey
