This is what unfettered capitalism is all about. In the past 30 years the top 1% increased its wealth by $21 trillion while the bottom 50% lost $900 billion — and the pandemic has only made the inequality worse. We need an economy that works for all, not just the few.

You've heard that you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink." I say that you can always make the horse drink! How? Put SALT in his oats! As a teacher, we must find the salt that will make the student want to learn. How do you season your lessons?
Last week we participated in a STEM Mummy Construction Challenge after our lesson about Ancient Egypt and mummification. Real learning can be observed through challenges that evoke critical thinking and collaboration. I never regret doing this activity with my students!

"If you don't sit around in the lunchroom talking about how awesome your kids are and amazing their work is, change your lesson design." by @jcorippo. Preparing for #cuerockstar#simischools#powerupsimi!
I’m really glad my Academic Coach @Kmunioz captured this moment @WMSofBCSD and reminded me that this is success! #BeMighty🐝 #teamBCSD https://t.co/THoi0SkLRc
You can't just throw students (or adults) together and not have expectations in regards to collaboration, communication, and decorum.
I LOVE this poster in @lrmwilliams3rd's classroom! She even went over it & modeled prior to math stations!
