CJ McDermott @cmcdermott625.bsky.social · 27/11/2024100%. I’m revamping our 7th grade curriculum this year and in the second year of building our district Native education program from scratch. It’s okay for good things to take time! 220
CJ McDermott @cmcdermott625.bsky.social · 27/11/2024My biggest advice is anything new you want to implement should be easy! Instead of asking 10-15 questions in a lecture, choose 2-3 beforehand and build in that time. 110
CJ McDermott @cmcdermott625.bsky.social · 27/11/2024This is a challenge! I work with my team how to balance the pain and sorrow that comes with studying our discipline to focus on the joy that still existed. Humans have always had joy within the fight for justice - and hopefully, by showing this in our classrooms, students take that into their lives! 120

Folks - we’re all in our 30s and 40s now. It’s no longer a competition. Go buy your favorite pie with your adult money and let people enjoy books however they want. 626160731235

CJ McDermott @cmcdermott625.bsky.social · 21/11/2024Coaching win today: A teacher wanted to increase engagement and classroom community. We created a plan to increase the use of turn and talks to give students time to “chew” on content. Observed today and the classroom was ELECTRIC with discussion, community, and laughter! #EduCoach 150

Reposted by CJ McDermottMarcus Luther @marcusluther.bsky.social · 18/11/2024If we were re-designing the education system from scratch, one thing I’d love to see is the destruction of the linear career ladder out of the classroom. Cyclical would be better, I think. Out-of-classroom positions, such as building leaders? Temporary. Then back into the classroom for a stretch. 2416415

Those same agitators we’re fleeing in that other place NEED our outrage & engagement to be impactful. They’ll arrive soon. Block immediately and never engage with anyone who slips thru. It’s gonna be on us to maintain whatever peace can be found on a social app. 23663268
