Tough loss for Georgia. But with Kirby Smart at the helm, you know Georgia will be back in this SEC Championship

Thank @mc_willis3 for sharing your worm castings with our class! We loved learning about the benefits of adding the castings to our hydroponics plants! Now we sit back and watch them grow! 🪱🌱@FordEScobb #thebestisyettocome

My favorite quote from @LucyCalkins at @tcrwp - “If you think your students can’t, they won’t.”

It’s good to know the content. It’s great to know the pedagogy. It’s imperative to know the kids.

When I think back on my teachers that made an impact, what I remember is their joy, their sense of humor, and their enthusiasm.

My favorite part of the day was watching my students’ amazement when they realized the mineral, magnetite, is magnetic! #exploringscientists #fordeschat

Some parents judge schools by the test scores. But there are a lot of parents who judge schools by the attitude of their child when they get home in the afternoon. We need to be working to raise student achievement… but we also need to be creating good experiences for kids.

There are 101 ways to connect with your students. But none of them work if you don’t begin with care. And if you have that… you can make almost any strategy work.

I think effective teachers are not driven by the standards; they’re driven by the needs of their kids. They understand their curriculum and they teach what is required... but it’s always in the context of understanding where their students are... and what it takes to move them.

It’s important for veteran teachers to take the rookie teachers under their wing… to support them, to encourage them, to remind them that in spite of some hard days ahead, it is a great profession… a rewarding career… and a noble calling.

These scientists and mathematicians used string art to create animals from the Georgia habitats and Regions. Their animals were created using polygons! #FordEsChat #cobbstem @techyteacher25
