🚨 Teachers, STOP writing lesson plans like essays! 🛑 It’s not about format—it’s about function. 🎥 A lesson plan isn’t a checklist—it’s a blueprint for real learning. What’s the worst lesson plan format you’ve been forced to use? Drop it in the comments. #Captivate #edusky #teacher #learning

When students are so worn down by rote tasks that they’d rather “just have a worksheet,” it’s a clear sign: school needs a cultural reset. @mrswilliams21c.bsky.social #edusky #Captivate #StateofEdPodcast #studentengagement

Throwing students into “groups” isn’t the same as true collaboration. @mrswilliams21c.bsky.social discusses agile project management as a hack for teachers to achieve group work with accountability and visibility. #edusky #Captivate #studentengagement #StateofEdPodcast stateofedpodcast.com
