Roses are red
Violets are blue
I am a math person
You are one, too

In math class we don't say "I love you," we say "Don't forget to double-check your work" and I think that's beautiful.

I do equity & bias reviews for kids books & mostly I get hired to read for race & gender issues. But there is one area of representation that I flag in almost every book I review.

We need more fat people in kids books.

“Turn and Talk” in the lower (and maybe upper) grades often ends up being two Ss talking AT each other. To encourage real engagement/listening, I’m moving to “Turn and Learn”: “Turn and learn your partner’s thoughts on ___”. Then asking Ss to share out what they learned.

Although I'm loathe to have kids stay on screens for breaks, the timer counting down may help some perfectionists work through the task with "good enough" drawings...

Today is the International Day for the Remembrance of the Slave Trade and its Abolition. It's important to center the humanity and voices of enslaved Africans in honoring that remembrance. This resource can help.

#ICL101 When the dust settles on our educational experience, what remains is a deeper understanding of who we are, who we want to become, and our place in a complex world-- i.e. our identities. #IdentityCenteredLearning centers on this core and designs education to support it.

[Learning for Justice @learnforjustice]

Teaching students to recognize privilege isn't about feeling guilt or blame due to their identities. It's about examining the power people have in different situations—and helping them recognize opportunities to advocate for others.
