@TNedu Maybe give teachers a raise with that money instead of buying yet another literacy program that will cause frustration in both students and teachers.

@GovBillLee Shouldn't this matter more than a growth score? #teachertwitter #education #tnteachers

[𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐝 𝐉𝐨𝐡𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐧 @DrBradJohnson]

I think teacher evaluations right now should focus on the following questions:
How are you doing?
Are you taking care of yourself?
How is your family?
How can I best support you right now?

[Bekah Beyer @BekahPBeyer]

@GovBillLee If we expect students to take these tests seriously this year after everything we've been through, you are clearly worried about the wrong things. #onelc

Is everyone listening? We need to allow for processing & free time! We may, in fact, need an education reboot! Anyone else already have this thought?

Finally watched #Hamilton on @disneyplus 🤩😍. It's AMAZING!!!! I know King George is the bad guy, but I just loved his songs! 😆

[Bekah Beyer @BekahPBeyer]

I think we should all model how to be positive (or at least calm) in situations like this, so our kids will know how to react to possible situations in the future. #teachertwitter #teacherthoughts #QuarantineThoughts

Shelby Co. Schools Superintendent Joris Ray plans to ask the Tennessee Department of Education to cancel state testing for the 2020-21 academic year as students and teachers return to a school year full of uncertainty this fall. https://t.co/7PumwgNebZ

[Tennessee Education Association @TEA_teachers]

Tennessee’s simmering debate over standardized testing is heating up during the pandemic as key education groups clash over whether the state should remove the burden of testing from school communities for a second straight year. https://t.co/wE4ul6CJAV

What does a mask do? Blocks respiratory droplets coming from your mouth and throat.

Two simple demos:

First, I sneezed, sang, talked & coughed toward an agar culture plate with or without a mask. Bacteria colonies show where droplets landed. A mask blocks virtually all of them.

[Dwayne Reed @TeachMrReed]

Parents, please model for your children how to properly wear face masks. Also, parents, please wear face masks.

Signed,
A teacher, thinking about school in the Fall.

@Kirstin_Schultz My lowest prices item are these highlighters. I love the colors and these are great to keep at the VIP table! https://t.co/7Yd3noupD4

[Bekah Beyer @BekahPBeyer]

I don't normally ask this of total strangers, but it seems the financial strain on Tennessee Teachers is not looking up. So, if you can, a little help to #clearthelist would be much appreciated! #teachertwitter #teacher #Kindergarten #tennesseeteacher https://t.co/tgVO2hmkbt
