1. Dear "Cut All Taxes" Political Candidate: Either you're pandering, which is not leadership; or you believe the rhetoric, which is not smart. (By @LYSNation)

2. If you are not stepping on anyone's toes there is a good chance you are not walking the walk. (By @casas_jimmy)

3. Critical Writing in math is a must! Not just because the district says so, but because it is the right thing to do for students!! (By @fosterbkay)

4. "Our eyes are our biggest source of sensory input.  If you see change, you start to believe change." (By @MagnoliaJrHigh)

5. The one talking about the content is the one building improved understanding of the content. Who is doing the talking in your classroom? (By @LYSNation)

6. Encourage teachers to praise only the behaviors that deserve praise. "Good job everybody!" is not specific or accurate. (By @TinneyTroy)

7. When teachers are proactive, time spent on correction in the classroom should begin to diminish. Begin instruction by greeting students at the door. (By @TinneyTroy)

8. Beliefs vs Behavior is not a Chicken vs Egg question. Instructional cues matter. Beliefs follow behavior. (By @JasonJj7)

9. College athlete prospects: If you're going to post stupid stuff on Twitter, better learn how to fill out student loan applications. (By @CoachDPenrod)

10. Just notified that The Fundamental 5 (Cain & Laird) just passed 63,000 copies sold! Thank you, LYS Nation!! (By @LYSNation)
