Sometimes independence is messy. As the adult in the classroom, I've got to be comfortable with the reality that independence will not often occur in neat little rows.

We wish for independence, but often we demand compliance. The two are not the same thing. A4 #tcrwp

We should name mass shootings the way we do hurricanes but after Republicans who accept payments from the @NRA.

@vogler3024 I loved it! Thanks for sharing

I wrote something! Hope folx find it useful. What are ways you check your bias in class?

[Learning for Justice @learnforjustice]

“It will take time to unpack and time still to revisit, revise and reevaluate your practice.” But your students deserve that effort. These simple tips can help you address your biases—conscious or unconscious—that may manifest in the classroom. https://t.co/RYTwNhIwZj

@Haver_Lisa @fundPHLschools @OtisHackney In my limited experience tchng here, they don’t pay for anything. And I say this after 10yrs in NYC public schools (where schools did actually buy materials)

[EFracTeach @EFrac]

@JasonReynolds83 Yes! Right here! Title 1 ELA grades 7&8 in Philly public. Can’t wait!

@RebekahODell1 Love this book. Saw RPC at Teachers College a number of years ago and have used it ever since (for my own writing and tchng my middle schoolers)

[EFracTeach @EFrac]

Saw that early literacy was # 1... given how much equity (or rather, inequity) informs so much — beginning with early childhood literacy, I’m more so wondering why it wasn’t the highest in importance.

[ILA @ILAToday]

Why do you think #equity in literacy education was ranked so highly in importance? #ILAWhatsHot https://t.co/R3MOprX25o

Good morning to all educators in schools with little to no resources. Things shouldn't be so drastically inequitable in a country founded on the notion of equality. But they are. So we have to find a way around the barriers and come together. We are all we've got.
