The Continuing Educator

Voicemails from our listeners! Teachers share their favorite motivators, props, and student compliments

NWEA

This was a fun one... because we got to talk to you, our listeners! In this episode: We see how Mr. Potato head can motivate students, one additional limb at a time. We open a big box of costumes in the middle of class. We learn about a teacher who calls students' parents to share good news, and how one student wanted to return the favor.  And finally, we get to hear some incredibly touching stories of students and families letting their teachers know how awesome they are. (Jacob and Kailey get a little misty-eyed.)

Special shoutout to all the teachers who called in! If you want to get in on the discussion, we'll be asking for new voicemails soon. Follow NWEA on your favorite social media platforms so you don't miss the opportunity to participate, and if you're headed to Fusion this summer, you can find us there as well. Thanks for listening!
