Merry Chrismakkuh to all the blended families out there enjoying two holidays today! 🎄🕎❤️💙

YES! Also AI isn’t always right so you need foundational skills first to understand when/when not to use it as a tool.

This year, English teacher @heymrsbond will enforce a strict no-AI-use policy in her classes. Why?

To encourage her students to develop original ideas, write in their authentic voices, & build critical thinking skills, she told Edutopia’s @borywrites. ✍️ https://t.co/KnTi04Vz7e

[HISTORY @HISTORY]

Juneteenth marks the day in 1865 when federal troops publicly read the Emancipation Proclamation in Galveston, Texas. The troops had arrived in Texas several days earlier to take control of the state and ensure that all enslaved people were freed. The troops’ arrival came a full two and a half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. #Juneteenth honors the end to slavery in the U.S. and is considered the longest-running African American holiday. https://t.co/KIwPikRzsa

Happy #InternationalWomensDay, a global celebration of the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women.

We celebrate the incredible achievements and resilience of women worldwide, from historic trailblazers to everyday heroes making a difference.

@RLSD_CCR @LamuthMS Book fairs are the best!!!!

[edutopia @edutopia]

If you've heard a student say, “I’m not much of a reader,” we’ve got you covered. These diverse books and series recommended by Edutopia’s audience are sure to engage even the most hesitant readers.👇

Yet another great day for 8th graders to read their dystopian novels!!!

[Riverside Schools @RLSD_Beavers]

We apologize for the late notice, but due to the dangerous road conditions, all schools in the Riverside Local School District will be closed today. We began transporting students to the Campus today and several buses got stuck. Those students are being transported back home.

[Ms.Kriwinsky (formerly Bissell) @MrsKriwinsky]

8th graders, another snow day, another great day to curl up with your dystopian book!!

[Chris Rateno @C_Rateno]

Due to the forecasted storm lasting throughout the day, the Riverside local schools will be closed on Friday 1/19. Stay safe and have a great weekend.

[Ms.Kriwinsky (formerly Bissell) @MrsKriwinsky]

I’m so glad our 8th graders read this before visiting the Holocaust Museum in DC. Everyone should read this book at some point in their lives.

[US Holocaust Museum @HolocaustMuseum]

Elie Wiesel and his father, Shlomo, were sent on a death march that left Auschwitz #OTD in 1945. Shlomo didn't survive the Holocaust.

Elie became an advocate for Holocaust remembrance and warned about the dangers of antisemitism and hate—including in his memoir, "Night."

[Ms.Kriwinsky (formerly Bissell) @MrsKriwinsky]

Hey 8th graders! Want a great thing to do on your cold day??? Curl up with your dystopian novel 📚 Happy reading!!!

[Ms.Kriwinsky (formerly Bissell) @MrsKriwinsky]

An absolute MUST read for middle (and high) school teachers! Very accurate and offers important pathways for addressing them.
