Students created poems to explore different aspects of their identity, including values, beliefs, and experiences. My favourite line, "I pretend all my doubters do not exist." 💥 @abbyschools.bsky.social @bookcreator.com

🔥 Success Hack: "The only way to do great work is to love what you do and surround yourself with people who challenge and inspire you." – Steve Jobs 💡 💭 Who’s in your circle? Drop a 🔥 if your crew makes you better! #SuccessMindset #EntrepreneurLife #SteveJobsWisdom #Motivation #LevelUp
To experience motivation, individuals must possess: ▶️ a reasonable expectation of success ▶️ a positive valuation of the task at hand Teacher actions: - set clear, achievable goals - give descriptive feedback - create a supportive environment - put a bow on it 🎀 @lindyhoc.bsky.social #ncce25 #ELSky
Parasocial relationships are one-sided bonds students form with instructors via digital media. These connections can boost engagement and motivation, even through a screen. @lindyhoc.bsky.social Embedding short instructional videos are an easy entry point. #PPT @bookcreator.com
Leverage the power & joy of picture books to make media literacy skills relevant, accessible, and engaging. #ncce25 #NAMLE @abbyschools.bsky.social ACCESS 🔘 ANALYZE 🔘 EVALUATE 🔘 CREATE 🔘 ACT
Why choice boards? ➡️ To give students ownership of their learning (voice/choice). ➡️ Leveraging your time to allow for small group instruction. ➡️ Choice boards are intentional, goal driven and data driven. #SteveMorris #ncce25 @abbyschools.bsky.social
Student engagement is equal parts attention and commitment. For students to pay attention they need learning opportunities that are: ➡️ relevant ➡️ authentic ➡️ meaningful "Entertainment isn't my job. But connection is." @ditchthattextbook.com #ncce25 #UDL
“What’s trending in the minds of your students? If they love it, use it!” @ditchthattextbook.com #ncce25 @abbyschools.bsky.social
Love @bookcreator.com's newest text to speech feature. Decoding every word can be overwhelming and effect comprehension. TTS allows students to engage with text more independently, providing valuable practice with word recognition and pronunciation. #ncce25 @abbyschools.bsky.social
