Schools scared to death.
The truth is, one education under desks,
Stooped low from bullets;
That plunge when we ask
Where our children
Shall live
& how
& if

My father was a drum major for justice, not for a colorblind society.

There’s a vast difference.

@valruckes @RCSVirtual Love this book as a read aloud for firsties!

[Timothy Allen @tca1978]

COVID learning gaps? Maybe.

But my 5th grade daughter can cook herself 3 meals a day, responsibly logs in remotely for her education, and has technology skills beyond anything I can comprehend. These are life skills that the past year created.

FINALLY! RICH TEXT in GOOGLE CLASSROOM! - https://t.co/yhjUsjDtpK

[MindShift @MindShiftKQED]

Right now the gap between what researchers know about learning and how classroom educators are applying this knowledge is still too large. Teachers don’t need millions of tips to improve their practice. They need to know the ones that work. @EdSurge https://t.co/QQQGjCG0bi

@alicekeeler Maybe just delete out from the previous grading period? I’d like to know more details on this too.

[Melissa Williams @1frameofmind]

Brilliant!

[Alice Keeler @alicekeeler]

In #googleClassroom I use MATERIALS to leave myself my lesson plan and notes to myself and just leave it as a draft. This way it's organized on Classwork for me to easily find in the context of my class organization. #googleEDU

Did you know? When sharing a link to a YouTube video - add a Hyphen (-) after the 't' and it will share an "add free, full screen, view only" link. Try it out!
Great for Seesaw, Slides, Classroom, emails...

Jamboard is my jam! Is it yours, too?

[Julia's #STEAMing up Learning! @GiftedTawk]

This Peanut butter & JAMboard matches parts of compound words, but could be used to teach any skill, e.g, matching equations to solutions. Whadya’ think? Interested? Love this song purchased from https://t.co/NLfMDBNn44 by Charity and the JAMboard. *Song sold separately.

[Melissa Williams @1frameofmind]

@GiftedTawk Hoping you share this soon! So fun!

[Melissa Williams @1frameofmind]

@GiftedTawk Love this! How can I get this too.

[Google for Education @GoogleForEdu]

Educators: if you use #Jamboard and #GoogleMeet in your classroom, you’re going to love this new update! Jamboard is now integrated with Google Meet, allowing your class to share ideas collaboratively in real time. Get your jam on in video calls: https://t.co/3wSI3VqDTo
