Literacy Coach at Pershing, BSD100 :) "There are many little ways to enlarge your child’s world. Love of books is the best of all." ~Jacqueline Kennedy
“Guys guys! We’re at the Parthenon!!!” …so grateful to have such incredible community partners at @BerwynLibraryIL that add so much joy and magic to our learning journeys! @d100inspires#teampershing@Ms_Bazz
I have found that certain habits lead to the deepest coaching cycles. One of my top essentials is a weekly meeting. Here is my go-to routine! The more we foster these habits & evolve as needed based on our partner, the more sustainable this work can be. #d100inspires
Two examples of quick ideas teachers came up with when they noticed a challenge: 1. not sure who really grasped the lesson & 2.always being asked how to spell words. Teachers are the best problem-solvers!💯 #d100inspires#teampershing
Started my day greeting students with this gem of a human before she heads off to the 1st gr field trip. Anyone wanna sign my petition that she’s not allowed to retire? 😉 @rmbtowner_tech#d100inspires
When coaching, I always have an at-a-glance anecdotal page ready to jot down observations based on what a teacher is focusing on. A simple “what evidence do you want me to look for today?” can go a long way! #d100inspires#teampershing#instructionalCoaching
Coaching in the midst of a new curriculum adoption can feel overwhelming. Together with your partners, always focus on a goal with a clear plan. Check in daily, communicate constantly, & focus on evidence of learning. We've got this💪 #d100inspires#coaching
I wish I had a picture of the amazing room I presented to yesterday- the energetic buzz was so invigorating for me! Thank you, to all 80 of you, who shared that space with me. 💫 I will forever look back at that experience with a grateful heart.🤗 #ICIC2024
“This is hard, heart work, but goodness gracious it is THE WORK.” - @KatieNovakUDL - thank you for your overview of firm goals & flexible means today. Excited to dig into the UDL resources! #ICIC2024
Feeling all over the place? Inspired by #StudentCenteredCoaching, we’re organizing student evidence that aligns with our focus standards into folders. This simple step helps us anchor our work in STUDENTS👏🏻 any other tips on focus & alignment in a cycle?
These #teampershing teachers are keeping me on my toes and I 👏🏻 love 👏🏻 it 👏🏻! Excited to analyze student work with the what and the how in mind with Ms. Lopez … our eyes are zoomed in on text evidence🕵️♀️ #d100inspires@Ms_Bazz
TFW a coaching cycle comes together, connects to the SIP, is research-based with room for creativity, and has specific ways of tracking student progress to keep a student-centered approach… 💫 here we go! 👏🏻 #teampershing#d100inspires@Ms_Bazz@samshuman24
