"Before AVID I felt like I was doing more of the teaching. And I was worried about taking care of everything for my kids. I was almost spoon-feeding them. And with AVID I feel like it is reversed. They are organizing themselves." #ThisIsAVID Amazing video @qcusd #QueenCreek

Social norms are ideals and standards of behavior shared by a group. They can be used with students in the classroom and with adults during meetings. Establishing norms enables learning to happen more respectfully and efficiently. #ThisIsAVID

Exposing students to four-year universities is important, but that's just one post-secondary option. Work with your students to provide more options in finding their dream school and pursuing their careers. #ThisIsAVID
Going to be teaching summer school reading and writing classes. Here is an idea for a #QRBreakIN. Only designed the game board so far, but students will get to know different genres of writing and authors. I call it: Ticket to Read :). What do you think @MeehanEDU ?

To provide the resources students need to succeed, we need to understand them as individuals, not just their grades. Here are 4 personal stories where teachers found out something new about their student and the difference it made. @EdSurge #ThisIsAVID buff.ly/2TQkrUJ

If the instructor makes all the decisions, the students will never become autonomous note-takers. Here are some ways of making the note-taking process more student-friendly. #ThisIsAVID

"Being in your room helps them feel safe. Being in your room, where someone actually cares about them makes them feel needed. Being in your room is the best part of their day." Show EVERY student that you care and want to help. #ThisIsAVID buff.ly/2JBC9GX @Bored_Teachers

"At-risk students deserve more than being farmed out to a tech lab monitored by babysitters. They need someone like Flowers, who will fight and make uncomfortable phone calls and say, 'Hey, kid, you are worth something and we are going to take care of you.'" @EdSurge #ThisIsAVID

Why it's so important to have the "processing" part of focused notetaking and interactive notebooks...we've got to make the learning our own. #ThisIsAVID
Drawing is an effective way to boost memory, a new study finds. When students drew concepts, their recall was twice as good compared to when they took notes. edut.to/2TQgNcF
Start with the why, every time. #ThisIsAVID – at Petaluma, CA
"Until we understand the why of each of our students, we cannot be successful teachers..." #ThisIsAVID

College readiness and career readiness are skill sets that all scholars need! #thisisAVID @AVID4College – at Petaluma, CA

As a leader your job is to serve, not be served. Your team needs to know you care. Serve their heart. Your team needs to improve. Serve their talent. Your team struggles with doubt. Serve their mind and spirit. Your team has potential. Serve their growth.

Step into an AVID classroom and see for yourself what student centered, equitable, high engagement, critical thinking and problem solving teaching looks like! Thanks @rfishtrom and @SeqUHSD for leading the way with AVID Digital Teaching and Learning! @AVID4College – at Petaluma, CA
