Okay, @carlameyrink.bsky.social I am SUPER jealous of that view right now!! We have a tundra outside and hopefully we will thaw out soon for the spring and summer! #sunchat

Good morning #sunchat! My name is Melissa and I am a middle school science teacher in New Jersey. I hope everybody had a fantastic week! We are looking forward to a little bit more warmer weather here in Jersey this week.. fingers crossed! How is everybody doing this morning?

🌞Thanks @susankotch.bsky.social ! We are the best team and the best crew around! I only learn from the best! #sunchat 🌞

🌞 Okay #sunchat crew, @susankotch.bsky.social and I hope you have a good rest of your weekend and we will start fresh next weekend πŸ˜„. Anyone in the way of these passing storms keep safe and I hope everyone is a good week ahead! 🌞

Many of us struggle with being effective communicators, but I feel as an admin that is one of those non-negotiable traits. Always thinking before you speak! #sunchat

When I was long-term subbing over a decade ago I wasn't sure where I wanted to go... I remember being in a post conference with an admin who scared me and she told me I didn't belong here.. It broke my heart.. But she readjusted her statement and said I was meant for middle school 🀣🀣 #sunchat

This is what I love as a teacher.. I put so much time and effort into my lessons and getting students involved and I like to be recognized every so often (even if it was a side conversation in passing. I always wonder if I'm doing enough for my students in that small gesture helps a lot. #sunchat

Since moving over to our Middle School in our district, I've seen more administration walking through hallways than I have before. Our principal pops his head into our classrooms to say good morning to my students and myself. So far I have felt supported, especially when there are problems. #sunchat

This is definitely something that can have benefits and disadvantages... As a teacher that's very involved with curriculum and with her students it would drive me crazy with all the work I was doing and others were a long for the ride! #sunchat

@carlameyrink.bsky.social , as an admin I can see the changes and the involvement that you have with your students and your staff. What do you think are the most important qualities and administrators should have that would be on your team? #sunchat

Okay .. administrators... Some teachers I talked to on here have said their administration is a ghost... While others say their administration is present and always looking to help... What are your thoughts! #sunchat

#sunchat topic of the day:

🌞 Good morning #sunchat! It is a rainy Sunday morning here up in New Jersey. We are waiting for a windstorm to be pushing through! How is everybody doing this morning? Please take a moment to introduce yourself to the group!

Join us for another #sunchat tomorrow morning at 9am eastern! Do administrators really know what goes on in the classroom? Let's talk about what makes a great administrator! See you in the morning!

🌞 Okay #sunchat!! It is that time unfortunately again for me to head off to get some housework done before the super bowl party heads our way! I hope everybody has a fantastic week and an enjoyable Sunday! It was great chatting with all of you!! See you next week! 🌞
