Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science! I’m so proud to celebrate women around the world who are breaking barriers in #STEM – including Betty, a member of the
@girlsalliance from Kenya who gives girls with disabilities access to #STEM education.

From Alma Thomas to Jean-Michel Basquiat and Augusta Savage, here are eight remarkable artists to talk about in class—and art projects inspired by their work. #BlackHistoryMonth https://t.co/MlDh7LNDZp
“Thus grew up a double system of justice, which erred on the white side by undue leniency and the practical immunity of red-handed criminals, and erred on the Black side by undue severity, injustice, and lack of discrimination.” -- W. E. B. Du Bois, Souls of Black Folk (1903)
Going into the weekend with my head full of ideas, inspiration, and curiosity of how this rich learning will translate into our teachers’ classrooms. My colleagues and I @LincolnElSereno are gearing up for some deep learning with our community! #NCTE21

Lies My Teacher Told Me was one of the first books I read in college that completely shifted my thinking of my role as a teacher. Thank you @JamesWLoewen for #teachingtruth
We will miss James W. Loewen's scholarship, wit, and dedication to ensuring that history be taught accurately because, as he said, “Telling the truth about the past helps cause justice in the present.” His work inspires generations to #teachoutsidetextbook

Welcome back to school LAUSD! Here’s our opportunity for a fresh start!
“As students return…there’s a valuable opportunity to reconsider—and ultimately retire—some of the stale literacy practices that research suggests aren’t the best use of limited instructional time.”
