“6 weeks pregnant” = 2 weeks late on your period.
Most of the men writing these bills don’t know the first thing about a woman’s body outside of the things they want from it. It’s relatively common for a woman to have a late period + not be pregnant.
So this is a backdoor ban.
If a fetus is a person at 6 weeks pregnant, is that when the child support starts? Is that also when you can’t deport the mother because she’s carrying a US citizen? Can I insure a 6 week fetus and collect if I miscarry? Just figuring if we’re going here we should go all in.

This year some students will have over 26 exams to sit over a month! Add 26 marbles in a (clean) jam jar (or however many exams they have) and after every exam take one out and put it in another jam jar. Having a visual representation of achievement is key to staying motivated!
Had to stop at Rite Aid for work & a teenage girl with her baby was crying. She was in trouble for shoplifting a small bottle of infant Tylenol for her baby who was very sick. I was able to convince the manager she was my daughter & I paid for the medicine & they let her go💜💜
The misconception is that student centered learning reduces the importance of the teacher but it’s quite the opposite. The teacher facilitated the learning while promoting critical thinking, problem solving and the opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with students!
2 of 2 Phoneme deletion and phonological memory are the strongest predictors of later reading achievement. Yet, too many schools are not directly and explicitly teaching PA !Let's dig into this important work and reach every reader! Ch-1-4 on 3/27 #PAlearning@everyonereadste
