I teach 6th grade math and science. What's your super power?

[Beth @BethGillis]

Truth and beauty.

[Ms. Nielsen @Ms__Nielsen]

I have had some fantastic interactions with students during our first few days of #shelteringinplace #remotelearning. It's heartening to see half my 6th graders all show up in an @zoom_us lessons, mostly just to say hi to each other, but also to ask questions and get work done!

#MTBoS #iteachmath what are middle school math teahers assigning?

[Dawn Brailsford @dawnb3m]

@ddmeyer Any suggestions for something similar for middle school math classes?

@Mr_ColinJames Go easy on yourself. Teaching is tough. Find mentors and keep in touch with them. The one resource I wish I'd had in my first year that I found later was the book Conscious Classroom Management. It didn't just say what to do, but also explained the how.

I feel exactly the same! #MERITcon with #MERIT19 was awesome!

[Ms. Young (she/her) @msyoung428]

It was amazing meeting the wonderful #merit19 cohort! Love the energy. Thanks again @LisaTeachesTech and @bribriggs for giving me the opportunity to present and grow as an educator! Can’t wait to see, share, and collaborate with many of you! #meritfamily @krausecenter

@innovatocreato @molapus Thank you Merve @molapus and #merit19 for the opportunity to build community while we think critically about technology and equity in our worlds. Inspiring!

[Ms. Medrano 💖🤙🏽 @MissMLMedrano]

Back for #MERIT19 with @Ms__Nielsen and myself representing #merit18 🙌🏽

I'm team #GIF. How do you pronounce it?

[Ms. Nielsen @Ms__Nielsen]

@MrVaudrey I'll be brave & not lurk (which was my instinct). I am mostly in the awareness phase, but trying to find ways to make changes. It's hard & scary. Privilege is being able to step back & "take my time" facing #equity & making changes. As I understand, PoC don't have that choice.

@ManzanedoT @kohli2_kohli Let's consider this for next year: having middle school students help judge elementary STEAM projects.

[8th Grade AVID 2k19 @buSTEAMante]

Spending time at Ryan Elementary judging the @AlumRockUnion STEAM showcase projects #ThisIsAVID #collegeready #AVID2k19 #alumROCKit

@kairyssdal Permanent daylight saving time would result in *more* people getting up in the dark more of the year. I'm all for skipping the time change, but I'm in favor of permanent standard time, like Arizona and Hawaii.
