A number of you in the LYS Nation are now Twitter
users. If you haven’t done so yet,
we want you to join us. To let you
see what you are missing, here are the Top 10 LYS Tweets from the week of March
24, 2013.
1. You should start every campus meeting with
this quote. "It is amazing what happens to rigor when you let students
talk to each other and write."
2. Ms. Peters’ kindergarten class (RES) is
writing and discussing in small groups. So why can't we do this in secondary?
Oh, she also is a Recognition and Reinforcement machine.
3. Rigor is driven by high quality instruction
and higher order thinking. Rigor is not driven by testing. (By @Dr.
JerryRBurkett)
4. Using the Bloom's Taxonomy chart has been vital in planning my
Lesson Frames. Enjoying this new way of planning. (By @Dfaykus)
5. Here's an easy way to ensure that student
retention is always low! Never close your lesson!!!
6. How come when it is time for review,
teachers select the lowest yield instructional practices in their toolbox?
7. When did simple disagreement become hate? What message are we
sending to our youth? (By @cheadhorn)
8. The message we are sending is... You are entitled to one
opinion... Mine. (By @cheadhorn)
9. Want to ensure that you work harder than you
need to? Don't close your lesson. At least you'll know what you will be
re-teaching tomorrow.
10. If CSCOPE is from the devil, then the Texas Legislature should
fund a full Curriculum & Instruction team for each district. Texas
Legislature, your thoughts? (By @friEdTechnology)
Think. Work. Achieve.
