@Catlin_Tucker I am reading Blended Learning in Action and appreciate your description of BL and the implementation recommendations for districts. Which of your BL books contains the most practical application of BL practices for teachers? Thanks! And thanks to your co-writers!

I am looking for examples of redefinition (SAMR) in ELA? The examples I am finding redefined learning 5-10 years ago, but are now substitution. Has the goal of Redefinition become engagement to enhance learning. Does the model need to change?

@CarolJago Somehow we need to get away from language the suggests a lack of ability and instead, encourages. Kids need to know they are smart, and that there are a variety of reasons why they missed out on learning, and that our job is to give them another opportunity.

With so much in flux for the new school year, it seems a perfect moment to revise core reading lists.

Does yours include:
Jesmyn Ward
Colson Whitehead
José Saramago
Ilya Kaminsky
Edwidge Danticat
Terrance Hayes

Happy to offer other suggestions. [email protected]

Three years ago, @pennykittle and I created book clubs for our HS students around the theme of social justice. Here were the titles we selected at that time. Any suggestions for updating the list?

Denfeld is offering "Hunter Pride Community Wide" signs for sale for $10 to the general public starting tomorrow and running daily from 10:00 to 1:00 at the main entrance while supplies last. Exact change preferred. Thanks for helping to spread the Hunter spirit! @ISD709News

@RyanmBurke @JulieAn54724 @pennykittle @MarisaEThompson @BetsyDeVosED Do you teach in an affluent community? I am completely comfortable teaching online, but teaching in impoverished communities with underfunded schools restricts a teacher’s ability to provide online content to students and doesn’t motivate teachers to spend time learning OL pltfms

Remember that teachers who are delivering distance learning from home are also caring for their own children. This won't be like a typical school day.

@chrissyerickso Like repetition and humor to make an emotional appeal in order to get your way?😀
