A tweet from Eric Sheninger saying, "To build powerful relationships with all learners:
1. Love your kids more than the subject you teach and/or the grade level you work with.
2. Use feedback and positive reinforcement as the main learning motivator, not grades or marks.
3. Be empathetic." I really liked Eric's tweet because it is very important to build powerful relationships with your students. Building relationships with your students gives them a sense of trust in you as their teacher. Giving feedback and positive reinforcement to your students gives them the motivation that they are able to achieve more than they think they can, which will most likely get them excited about learning your content. If you are empathetic towards your students they will also get that sense of compassion from you, which also makes them trust you.

Steven Anderson tweeted a link about blogging about the WEB 2.0 connected classroom. (http://bit.ly/2ILO3tZ ). For this website provided there are several things to consider when looking for technology use in the classroom. One suggestion was always remember your purpose. This means does the purchase align with the mission and goals of the district? Does it support attainment of the discipline standards, ISTE Standards, and learning targets? Another suggestion was keep the students as the center, meaning have a differentiated classroom, inclusive classroom and accessibility options. I will make sure to have a classroom where the students are the center and pick technology that focuses on students. An important suggestion is to keep data safe and secure. I will make sure that the technology is secure and safe for students to use.
George Couros had a quote that says, "We forget that if students leave school less curious than when they started, we have failed them." I like this quote because it makes you want to teach your students things to get their minds wondering and get thinking about what you taught them. If they leave school forgetting everything they learned that day then you would have to start over the next day basically and fall behind in your teaching. Making your students curious is a good thing because it makes them continue thinking about topics and maybe they can research it themselves at home and learn more before school the next day.
