When Trump accuses Kamala of being a “communist”, I roll my eyes.🙄

Only one candidate running, has attacked the free press, installed his relatives in government jobs, and refused to accept the results of free and fair elections - like dictators do.

It’s NOT Kamala Harris.

At the start of 11th gr Advanced English, I remember the exact student who rushed into class: “Ms. Bevino, did you hear? The Challenger exploded!” We ran to the library to find a TV and stared in disbelief and silence. After 35 years, it’s still shocking.

[Michael Beschloss @BeschlossDC]

What is your memory of the Challenger catastrophe, thirty-five years ago today?

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Michelle and I are heartbroken over the passing of our friend, Elijah Cummings. May his example inspire more Americans to pick up the baton and carry it forward in a manner worthy of his service.

No test a child takes this month will measure their:
📍Passion
📍Gratitude
📍Grit
📍Creativity
📍Fitness
📍Resilience
📍Leadership
📍Self-Discipline
📍Curiosity
All of which will carry them farther than their state test score.

So many of us need this reminder! Thanks @Wes_Kieschnick #BoldSchool

[Weston Kieschnick @Wes_Kieschnick]

Friendly reminder that “doing your best” does not mean working to the point of a mental breakdown. Work. Pause. Rest. Recharge. Repeat. You can’t fill from an empty vessel. #BoldSchool #edchat #satchat #SaturdayMotivation #SaturdayMorning

So true @alicekeeler that getting students up front often in small groups with everyone delivering a small part makes a huge difference in building speaking confidence. #edchat

[Alice Keeler @alicekeeler]

Have students present often. Make small group presentations a norm. We've all sat through a bad presentation. It's not a natural skill to make a great presentation, that is the result of doing it often and getting feedback.

[Ann Bevino @AnnBevino]

Can’t beat this for a good Monday morning kickoff!Thanks @SteeleThoughts

[Danny Steele @SteeleThoughts]

We don’t know what a week will bring... but we know what WE will bring! We will bring our energy, our patience, our sense of humor, and our passion. We will bring the AWESOME!

We will teach... we will lead... and we will make a difference for the students!

In our polarized society, stories invite us to see more clearly those who appear “foreign.” Such reading may entail discomfort. But it is a bridge to somewhere—to a more empathetic world.

#BannedBooksWeek reminds me of all the great books that were banned at times. My favorite has to be Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. But The Scarlet Letter and The Things They Carried would be high on my list too. Your favorites?

[HMH @TheTeacherRoom]
