Your advocacy has paid off. Today the Senate voted unanimously to repeal Best and Brightest.

Thank you Sen. @Rob_Bradley for sponsoring SB 486 to end this flawed program!

Hot off the press: Issue 3 of Core Connections magazine. Make sure to read this colorful, dynamic publication-- it's not only full of helpful resources and ideas, but it also features lots of ways to respond and get involved! https://t.co/BXCvdL2bBH #ownthelearning #edchat

@rjlCardinals #VCSScientists observing unique characteristics of #NativeFlowers to infer types of #pollinators they attract/use then making @PicCollage to share findings Thx to @flawildflowers @PawpawChapter for thriving blooming #NativeGardens! Only in FL can we do this in Feb!

@DrKChilds I’m wondering why @EducationFL thinks it’s “BEST” for 4th graders to use stem & leaf plots? Never have seen those outside school setting 🤔 Have seen box/whiskers is data reports.

[Dr. Kristopher J. Childs (he/him) @DrKChilds]

When was the last time you used a box and whisker plot outside of school?

Our new teacher-designed math modeling task is called Super Fill and can be used to address six high school math standards. Huge thanks to @RBobinchuck, @ALajinian, @mymathsoul for creating this task! Find it here: https://t.co/tp9KZ6yju0 #iteachmath #teacherchat

How important is to formative assess Ss and use the data collected to DI? @BrowardMath Ts went #BeyondtheBubble & deppen their understanding on the value of effective feedback, experienced strategies to formative assess Ss to DI & applied the learning during our #PDtoPractice 😅

These @rjlCardinals are legit mathematicians! Their visual representations, conceptual understanding, & equations of multiplying whole # & fraction were 🤯 S reflection in #Journal said it was due to #PowerOfYet! All the 🧠 sweat earned them the chance to make & enjoy the mix!

A5: When instructional materials don’t support teaching or learning of the standards I find materials that do match or create my own from my understanding. Thankfully I use @IllustrateMath for my grade level and don’t have to worry about that. #coreadvocates #iacoreadvocates

The Senate Education Appropriations Subcommittee will meet at 9:00am today.

Among other things, they will discuss SB 1220--a bill to further expand vouchers.

What they won't mention is these voucher schools don't guarantee a quality education, or even a valid diploma. 1/7

I have to say that one of my favorite tools is the Achieve the Core Coherence Map, knowing where this standard was first introduced and to what were the expectations #coreadvocates
