I can't believe it's already time to start preparing for Kindergarten! She got her first chance to see her new school thanks to the @hcpsnc Kindergarten Readiness Rally and she is so excited about being an @Upwardeagles !!
3/3 & process it at my own rate. I would highly encourage other educators to work through this #NCCATBookTalk for a wonderful, in-depth study that challenges you to think beyond yourself.
@NCCATNews 1/3 Thanks for the opportunity to read and study Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man by @EmmanuelAcho. I learned a lot about our society, our country's history, the lived experience of people of color in our country, and about myself. I appreciated the ability
2/3 to work through the book with other educators and to process our thoughts. I loved the opportunity for discussion and to talk with those who may have differing viewpoints or backgrounds than my own. I really enjoyed the #NCCATOnline format because I could read the book
I don't know the Jesus some have paraded and waved around in the middle of this treachery today. They may be acting in the name of some other Jesus but that's not Jesus of the Gospels.
The same for @thejohnmbryant and @JanKingNC ! To hear you speak about staff & students & to know that you want the very best for everyone means so much! This is such a difficult decision for everyone involved, and so I appreciate you all for being the ones to do this for us all.
Hearing @bo_caldwell talk about @HCPSNC students and staff at the school board meeting has me tearing up! Thank you for your support and trying to make the best decision for everyone involved. And thank you for being solution-oriented in all of this craziness!
SOCIAL JUSTICE EDUCATION CAN NEVER BE REDUCED TO AN "ADD-ON." Instead it must be woven into the fabric of everything that happens in a classroom. It is an inherent component of teaching and learning.
