"I've seen _______ make great strides throughout this year."

Regularly asking students to anonymously nominate their classmates for how they are living out our classroom values and making our space better?

One of my favorite traditions in our room:

Reason #192391 that I continue to love connecting with other teachers here:

1️⃣ found a poem activity from @thevogelman.bsky.social
2️⃣ had students to read/annotate/discuss
3️⃣ then asked them to write their own "ingredients" poem
4️⃣ each student shared one line to create our "classroom ingredients"

The lesson I'm taking from Friday and into this week?

I don't mind that the "pile of stuff to do" will still be sitting atop my desk as I walk into the classroom tomorrow.

Having those kneel-down conversations mattered much more, and every single one of them was worth it.

Cell phones have been an academic distraction and a source of social drama in schools for almost as long as they’ve been in existence. State legislatures are taking action.

Starting up our Writing Story reflection documents with sophomores tomorrow—and as I tell them, this is probably the most important artifact in our room over the year (because everything else is tied to it!)

Yes, it's heavy right now as a teacher.

But moments like this? It makes it a bit lighter.
