🧵Feedback is an area that often unnecessarily burdens teachers and steals too much time.

Feedback doesn't need to require a teacher to sit for hours and write comments on pages. In fact, that's often one of the least effective methods.

Ideas to try instead.

JUST IN: An arena in South Dakota is holding a “Dash for Cash” where teachers get on their knees and fight for one dollar bills that they can use for classroom supplies while spectators watch and cheer. (h/t @AnnieTodd96)

This idea of not wanting students to read books that may be upsetting is so unsettling. We should read books that challenge us, upset us, and push us in our thinking. Once we start reading only texts we agree with or make us feel good, we are entering dangerous territory.
