Leadership is about making people and situations better. Leadership isn't about your status, talent, position, title, authority, role, or age.

More reasons to not forget about Social Studies! @JamillahSimpson
Replying to @mandercorn
Research offers clues: 1️⃣ Teachers' use of academic vocabulary is directly linked to student vocab growth (Wanzek et al). 2️⃣ More Social Studies time boosted reading comp more than extra ELA time, especially for MLs! (Tyner & Kabourek '20). Content matters! @KnowledgeMatrs

Students celebrate their learning around famous athletes who overcame adversity and the factors that contributed to their success. Throughout the course of this project, students also made connections and comparisons to factors that contributed to their own personal success 🎉

Rigor is not synonymous with hard. Rigor is about making meaning for self, using individual skills to create a process, and applying what you learn. Elementary team is sharpening our saw on understanding rigor!

You must make clear to the kids in your life that what they think and how they feel matters JUST AS MUCH as what you, the adult, think and feel. That’s the key! Relationships, especially in schools, must function in this way in order to thrive. My book: a.co/d/4nfVodz
