@DeputyGrocott This actually helped! And wrapping them to prevent spreading. They left faint scars on my daughter too. https://t.co/If2D64Xu3D

Serious post:

100% of the mothers I’ve spoken to (countless, over the years) have told me that being a good teacher and a good mother is at best a heart-breaking struggle, at worst impossible.

It’s so sad.

Can someone fix the system?!

How much of our students' reading difficulties is due to poor instruction? And how much is due to legitimate reading disorders? And how much is due to our shoving 5 year old boys in desks and telling them to sit still for 7 hours?

This is without a doubt the most culturally competent Spanish language ad I have ever seen a presencial campaign release in my lifetime. Kudos to Team Harris for finally listening to boricuas! #SomosMásYNoTenemosMiedo

WL friends: Sharing a brand new high interest lesson I created for you based on authentic resources and the topic is "No More Nomophobia" (It's all about cellphones and stress). Ready for you with resources for multiple languages: https://t.co/HFA1iWSTnM

I love using "because, but, so" in the classroom.

1. Estrenar (verb) —

To wear (something) for the first time.

If you ain’t on team “teacher autonomy” you FOR SURE can’t be on team “blame teachers”

Can’t give teachers boring stuff to do then be like “why the kids bored?”

A single ping from a student's phone can break their concentration. Most students are getting hundreds.

A recent study of 11- to 17-year-olds revealed that on a typical day, half received 230+ notifications from their phone—about a quarter of them arrived during school.

Executive functioning is so much more than colored folders and checklists. However, this is usually how this work manifests in schools.

Here is a crash course in executive functioning. Be ready to tell me what you learned at the end of the thread.

100%. Every school through secondary schools ought to be phone-free, excepting extremely limited and specific situations. They are not helpful nor useful for any academic purpose I’ve ever seen and have only ever caused problems. #edutwitter https://t.co/asAtqjxEgg
