We are living in the ultimate Kobayashi Maru scenario (for those who are not Trekkers, that means a no-win scenario). There is no good situation that will help all working parents and keep all teachers and students safe. But teachers and their families matter. ♥️

With all of the fall planning going on, it is crucial for teachers to have a voice in the process. BOE members are people who care about education but they are often not educators! Teachers, please write to your BOE.

Karen's course on Assessment Strategies for Remote Learning is so packed full of example assessments, sample tools you can use in your classroom, tech tool recommendations and analysis - seriously check it out here: https://t.co/l1ZcYJCYE6

Karen (@msrazzchemclass) and I are loving hearing back from our course students about the courses we launched last week! I knew everybody was going to love Karen's assessment strategies! https://t.co/l1ZcYJCYE6

I keep thinking of things to add to my Teacher Prep Room Course: Planning for a Blended Classroom. Ever make a card sort type activity with Google Slides? https://t.co/xtvS91TNXC

It's Monday and it's the last day to save on our Teacher Prep Room courses on remote learning and assessment strategies! The teachers joining us will get access to all our lessons, walkthrough videos, worksheets, and checklists! https://t.co/59VAKgk1Vx today.

What if all professional development could be completed online at your own pace, included actionable steps and checklists, editable templates, and a private Facebook support group for teachers to collaborate with each other as they learn?

You know it's true. Even if the "cool" ones won't admit it. ♥️

I'm working on putting some resources together for teachers; what are your favorite ed-tech tools? Which do you wish you had more training on? #edtech #learningmanagementsystem #apps #educationalapps #education #learning #tech #edchat #innovation #elearning #appsforeducation

For a few months now during the pandemic, teachers and students and movie stars have been making videos and singing (mostly badly) the song from High School Musical "We're all in this together". Maybe this needs to be the theme song of 2020. 🖤🇺🇸

What will school in the fall look like? What are they saying in your school or district? Here in NJ, no announcements or guidance yet...

I'm looking for more science teachers to follow on Instagram! Who is your favorite science teacher on IG and why? Leave me a suggestion in the comments!

Have you designed your virtual Bitmoji classroom? I think there are a ton of ways that a teacher could use a hyperlinked-sectioned image for their classroom. Should I make one for science teachers to customize? What would you want to include in your "virtual classroom"

These dice are a real hit! Chemical nomenclature was never this fun!

At the end of the school year is the BEST time to get organized for the fall. Every May/June, I set myself up for my first two weeks so that when we get back in the building at the bitter end of August, I had a lot less to do! #linkinbio

Teachers, I wish I could send you all flowers or do a car parade for each and every one of you! You deserve it. Science with Mrs. Lau is celebrating Teacher Appreciation week with a 25% off sale starting today (Tuesday through Wednesday). https://t.co/t2j1Uq7az8

Literally the best biology year review you can do with your students to get them fully engaged in reviewing their biology! You can read more about it here on this blog post: https://t.co/laOWJPIfHc

Planning for biology full year review? This Exoplanet Adventure activity is a multi-station adventure where students use their biology knowledge to investigate alien life on a mysterious exoplanet! You can read more about it here on this blog post: https://t.co/laOWJPIfHc
