Thank you @TinkRworks for letting us pilot your Kindergarten eSTEAM Electric Art Project! #FutureReady

I had my first small group Zooms with my Kindergarteners today. I read to each group I Am Human by Susan Verde. I will say it provided me with a sense of normalcy too. I look forward to our next read and love the idea of incorporating Mystery Readers. #106learns @hes106hornets

“Just because a child can be trained in an academic pursuit doesn’t mean it’s what’s best for them....advantage gained by early academic rigor may not last long...research shows the benefits diminish by the 3rd grade” Burned Out in K? https://t.co/Y1DIa2zXEz via @WeAreTeachers
