How many teachers does it take to do a subtraction problem?
One, because it only takes one teacher to make a difference.
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!

“I always go around the class during group activities to discuss the task with my quieter students—so many more layers emerge with ideas and discussion. The quiet students have as much a voice as the louder ones.” —Dr. Elizabeth Heck, Educator and Researcher
How do you engage your quieter students in class discussions? 💬

On this road, a step takes you one space, such as from 3 to 4, and a jump multiplies your space by 3, such as from 3 to 9. The fastest way from 1 to 10 is 3 moves: 1 jumps to 3, 3 jumps to 9, and 9 steps to 10.

"After my students do something great I ask them, 'How proud does that make you feel?' And I love to hear their responses. I don't want them to make ME feel proud. I want THEM to feel proud of themselves." —Teacher Jessica Zacarias
Nothing makes a T prouder than seeing Ss glowing with self-confidence, says T Jessica Zacarias.

Frame 1: Scene from Toy Story, kid is holding what looks like a small present labeled "3 question quiz" Frame 2: Kid turns around and the present is really long. Labeled "1(a), 1(b), 1(c), 1(d), 2(a), 2(b), 2(c), 2(d), 3(a), 3(b), 3(c), 3(d)"
When the teacher says it's a 3 question quiz but it's actually 12 questions
