A1 Brilliance takes many forms. In math it could be recognizing a connection, solving a task, conferencing to share thinking. Sometimes it's the smile a student has when they have completed something or realized it was their thinking that everyone chose.

@ChristineLPercy A1 Having the tools and confidence to get unstuck. #elemmathchat

Q1: What types of fall events are you running in your schools? Assemblies? Challenges? Culture Building? #MEMSPAchat

QUESTION 1 on #MEMSPAchat will post in less than 1 minute, who is ready?

Welcome to #MEMSPAchat - STARTING NOW. I am tonight’s host, @MrDomagalski About Me: @MEMSPA Past-President, Innovation Chair, Board of Directors, Elem Principal, K-12 Virtual Principal. Who’s on? Let’s start with introductions & don't forget that #MEMSPAchat hashtag!

#CSP525 - I love learning from and with you all! :)

@wwolfe105 A7: The term gamification is NEW learning for me, but I love it and will explore it more #csp525

@MRSCR0SS Have you ever used the collaborate coloring "quilt squares?" #csp525

@wwolfe105 I love @BoddleLearning in my classroom. I can assign skills, see live results, and it shows me where a student is needing scaffolding and further practice. It's gamified and FUN with immediate feedback #CSP525

#csp525 - can you believe we're coming up to Q6 already????

A5 #csp525

@wwolfe105 A3: I like asking my students "why" and "how do you know", especially in math. Ride sharing with another teacher of an older grade has gotten me to realize the importance of how we get answers rather than rote memorization of facts #CSP525

#CSP525 • Thurs. 10.12 • Celebrating Ideas & Inspiration Welcome & glad you’re here! :) How would you describe your day so far? Let’s kick off with some good gifs…

#csp525 - getting ready for the final chat of our term??

@TXEDMod A3: As an instructional coach, I have been taking more time to have conversations about big and small things - everything from future goals to weekend plans. Teachers are needing connection to battle isolation and stress, just as our students are. #CSP525 #txed

@KarissaNic7122 @TXEDMod Truth! You are teaching Ss, not curriculum! #txed

@KarissaNic7122 @TXEDMod I loved doing this when I was in the classroom. I still had some control, but students also had some choice! They loved it!

The #TXed team: @PrincipalOgg @meredithakers @Tommyspall @CoachPullano @kali_saleh appreciate each of you joining us tonight. Keep making a difference, and remember #YOUMATTER.

Q4: We still have a lot of time to make a difference this year. What advice would you share as we move forward? #TXed Reply with "A4" and use the hashtag, #TXed

@KarissaNic7122 @TXEDMod Welcome to #TXed, Karissa. You will find that we are primarily positive around here. #TXed
