It was a fun day watching these guys present their @steelers STEM Powering Pittsburgh project today at Acrisure Stadium. Their innovation and dedication to their unique idea was inspiring. They were disappointed with the outcome but I’m so very proud of their teamwork.

I think teacher evaluations right now should focus on the following questions:
How are you doing?
Are you taking care of yourself?
How is your family?
How can I best support you right now?

I believe that time & experience will support what @Doug_Lemov has been saying about cameras being on during remote learning. Note the district-provided backgrounds. https://t.co/zd4mPYdWi9

The challenge we’re facing in our country is about more than the actions of a few. It’s about how to transform a justice system that doesn’t work equally for all.

Just poured my heart into an article to encourage teachers & it was bittersweet to see that this bitly link was not taken: https://t.co/4Dj7QjhPLE. It's got a free printable of this beautiful Rilke quote, even if you're not a teacher. #edchat #virtuallearning

A2 Our GT learners can really shine right now, and they'll need teachers ready to lift the ceiling to allow that to happen. To get ready, they need training. #gtchat

[Sara Miller @MrsSaraJMiller]

Love how this turned out. Thanks, all for humoring me with the idea, and @afitzpatrickCJE for putting it all together so perfectly.

[Sara Miller @MrsSaraJMiller]

I am so honored to have worked with this group of students since elementary school and to see their story come full circle at Freedom. I’m so excited to see what they do in their next chapters. Congratulations!

Reluctant gifted learners exist. Why? Because a gifted learner isn’t always a high achiever. Let’s make sure our expectations do more to support than harm.

Making Pierogis at St John the Baptist Catholic Church in Baden is more than just cooking, it's a social event in its own right as woman gather, tell stories and produce a very tasty Lenten treat.
