There is NEVER a time when we should be discussing if we should arm teachers. And if that time ever comes, we should not be reevaluating how we save our schools, we should be reevaluating how we save our society. #teachers

@CBSMMiller @48hours He deserved life behind bars

[Nicholas Ferroni @NicholasFerroni]

Being a teacher is like trying to tread water and, instead of throwing you a life preserver, the people on the boat (administration and society) are throwing you things to do WHILE you are treading water.

@steven_nahmias @DavidCutcliffe @Coach_G_Frey @DukeFOOTBALL I am so very proud of you, Steven! I think of you often and love you very much! You should be very proud of your accomplishments thus far. Hope you're having a great summer!

A3 Ask students where they see themselves in a picture book. Just did this with Matt de la Pena’s Love and Milo Reimagines the World and their responses floored me. #G2Great

A1. Currently using black history month as a way for books to be windows as I highlight a different person and book each day. Today was Ruby Bridges. #G2Great

A1 books serve to open doors to conversations you never knew you’d have, recently around Radiant Child #G2Great

@jmattmiller @DitchThatTxtbk @burgessdave @burgess_shelley @TaraMartinEDU @dbc_inc Can't wait to read this book! I've been so excited about Jamboard and now my tech person says we can't use it because there's an age requirement and my kiddos are 4th graders. So disappointed!!! Why is there an age limit?
