You ever be around kids and just think, “Man, I legit love y’all” ?

[Kathleen Murray @MrsMurrayDZ]

@mrsjjee My first day back from maternity leave I had a new student who told me he was “bad”. He hasn’t said that for a long time now, and has had lots of success in my class!

We might think they don’t like reading. False. They like reading about things they like.

@caitteach Second everyone who mentioned Jasmine Guillory, and Alexa Martin is also great for fun, fast, gentle romance novels!

[Kathleen Murray @MrsMurrayDZ]

@doonesburyj @caitteach Completely agree! Not trash, lovely romance novels where everyone resolves conflict in a healthy way and then is happy!

Praying for the thousands and thousands of educators starting school this week...with continued prayers for those already in the trenches. Heart-wrenching reading the news of schools already closing, and so concerned for the mental health of our parents, students and staff.

@NicholasFerroni Considering a HEPA air filter to help with ventilation. Masks and face shields.

Wondering whether you should require students to turn on their videos during virtual class meetings? Here's an infographic to help you rethink that idea #remoteteaching #edtech #isteten #remotelearning

@DrBradJohnson And let’s not have kids be on their computers from 8-3. We can not replace school with a google meet minute for minute.

Good teaching is modeling discomfort. it is sitting with what you are struggling to articulate and letting your students/peers/family watch you struggle... & eventually overcome. This is especially important for White folks as they engage with each other around race #HipHopEd

Why should we talk about race with children? I've gotten a lot of questions from White educators & parents about when & how to talk to their students/kids about race, racism, power, privilege,etc...The following is directed towards educators,but it also rings true for parents.1/

Ready for a thread of 100 Must-Read Children’s Books by African-American creators? Buy these books, read them, have them in your home and classroom and school and city libraries. Follow & support these creators. We can only learn and do better if we do the work. #blacklivesmatter

To my white educators: Today, you’re posting about social justice, buying antiracist books, following brown folks, and temp changing your profile pictures. (thread)

Here’s what I need you to do tomorrow:

We need to be careful not to micromanage teachers, parents, or students right now. Everyone is doing their best in a crazy situation and probably feels completely overwhelmed at times. Adding unnecessary pressure isn’t going to improve the situation.

Can we PLEASE stop calling what we are doing "ONLINE TEACHING" already?

We are not "online teaching." Why? Because we would never teach online courses unless we knew how to teach online courses.

We are crisis-driven-global-pandemic-emergency-response teaching. Big difference.
