Reminder to #educators get off X and go to Bluesky. It’s so much better there. I only come here to remind people to get off of this horrible platform.

💚💛 I brought some of my amazing Bilingual Ambassadors & ELD 1 students to attend Concord High’s incredible college and career fair together! Students helped to translate in Arabic, Dari, Pashto, Russian, & Spanish. My students gave me permission to post #MDUSDProud #CHSBears 🐻

Why are we in constant assessment mode. How about teaching first. Give explicit instruction. Give several examples. Give time to practice and make mistakes. Provide differentiated support for all students to access.

[Lisa Cattrone she/her @CattroneCHS]

There are no pure grading policies. There are always subjective elements and arbitrary elements to every grading policy. How does your grading policy serve your teaching effectiveness. Not very much? Change it.

[Lisa Cattrone she/her @CattroneCHS]

“F” grades don’t mean you have high expectations, it means your students aren’t learning. Why aren’t they learning? Maybe they just sit there and don’t want to work. Why? Is the judgement on them? The situation?

All languages at a school deserve equal support. Stop only providing support for Spanish -speaking communities, and bare minimum at that. 🛑

PSA: public school is supposed to be 100% free for everyone. Don’t gate-keep. It’s not about you and your classroom policies.

[Lisa Cattrone she/her @CattroneCHS]

Students go to school to learn, grow, and develop their characters and interests. They don’t go to school to be evaluated. Stop making your classroom about your grading policies. 🛑

🌟Language supports in the classroom are a student right🌟
