All pre-evacuation orders for the Arvada area to include Highway 93 to Alkire St, from 96th Ave south to 82nd Ave, have been LIFTED for the time being. Please remain prepared should conditions change. There are NO pre-evacuation orders in Arvada at this point.

Thank you to the board members, presenters, and planners of this year's conference! Not gonna lie, I wasn't looking forward to spending my Saturday"working" but I have no regrets, I feel amazing and excited to get back to work! #cctm21

The Illusion of Mastery:
when we only have block practice, the students don't need to wonder about the best way to solve the problems.

We need to intentionally build and support community throughout the entire school year.

We co-develop classroom norms with our students and revisit them throughout the year.

We value the struggle of learning in most of life: learning to swim/drive/walk/etc. We help our children learn by providing structure/supports to help it be productive.

Our job as teachers is to help the struggle to be productive.

Sometimes it's maddening to watch our students flail about and struggle to find patterns. But... it's vital to the learning process. #CCTM21

Thank you @kdykema for a great kickoff to our conference!!
