Some students are off-task not because they are attention seeking or malicious, it's because they are sleep deprived or hungry. Know the story and you can better know how to help!

Teachers engaging in peer or instructional coaching isn't adding to their plates. Its supporting them with what's on the plate that can best impact student learning. Critical for teacher agency.

When you want to be a teacher more than anything and your mom and her teacher friends ask you to “co-teach”New Knights, but it’s pajama day too…what is a girl to do? Teach in her jammies of course 😊

Independent reading is not about a level; it’s not about a certain number of minutes. Independent reading is that reading we do that helps us develop independent thoughts - not thoughts directed by anyone else.
