If you’re lesson planning and don’t have 20 tabs open, are you REALLY lesson planning?🤔

📊 A zero should never be a proxy for missing work/data. It's not only harmful to kids, but it's also poor math/measurement. Missing isn't evidence of no learning. It's just no evidence. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #SBLchat #TG2Chat

Cooperative learning can be a powerful learning strategy, but only if it works well. These small changes can make group work more effective in your classroom.

Since the department of education is going away, how do kids that require federal student aid pay for college?

Pell grants are gone. Head start is gone. Special Ed funding is gone.

I’m just curious about the Plan B for everyone.

What happens with IDEA money from the federal department of education if that department is closed?

There are seems to be a tension in this message between parents’ rights and state-led education: which is it?

There are a lot of questions here with huge implications.

“I don’t really like the way you teach.”

I’ve come to expect and accept this.

On some level, I actually embrace it.

I work very hard to create an experience where kids own their learning, and it is music to my ears when they speak their truths about their learning, which must also include my teaching.

My approach is by design far different from the way they’ve experienced school for the last 12 years (I have seniors), and for some it is too different.

I get that. I accept that.

I embrace that…

…as an opportunity to share the responsibility of finding a better match between their learning and my teaching.

If I am asking them to own their learning, then I must own my teaching, which is where we discover our work, our shared responsibility.

We can do better.

The people in my autism parenting groups who are just figuring out what gutting the Department of Education is going to do to their kids, after they voted for Trump. Whew, chile. It’s a whole lotta, “They can’t do that, right?” Nah, bro. They can and they’re gonna.

Clothes have long been political. 🧵

[Deanna (Dee-na) @2darythoughts]

@dieworkwear Anyone who thinks clothes aren’t political, just step into education for a day during an election cycle.
