@rdibbxsh @GamecockSoftbll @espn @UCLASoftball Yep! Reminiscent of the 2010 CWS when we beat
UCLA and the announcer wore a light blue shirt and yellow tie. He was clearly unhappy that things were going our way.#WinAnyway

Holy Toledo. Banning cell phones in class is equivalent to adding 5 extra days of instruction to the year. And substantially boosts learning for the lowest-achievers. Get those hanging things with the individual clear pouches for 30 phones up pronto in more classrooms.

Holy shit. VP Kamala Harris just responded directly to Ron DeSantis in Florida now: "I will tell you there is no roundtable, no lecture, no invitation we will accept to debate an undeniable fact: there were no redeeming qualities of slavery." THIS is how you handle a racist.

@votetimscott Did you think Ken Starr was a weaponization of the DOJ and Special Counsel Office? Oh wait, probably not. I suggest you sit this one out.

Joe Biden and Jill Biden were seen reading books on the beach today.

Be honest: when was the last time you saw Donald Trump reading a book? The correct answer is NEVER.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

August 8, 1982. A line drive foul ball hits a four year old boy in the head at Fenway. Jim Rice, realizing in a flash that it would take EMTs too long to arrive and cut through the crowd, sprang from the dugout and scooped up the boy.

He laid the boy gently on the dugout floor, where the Red Sox medical team began to treat him.

When the boy arrived at the hospital 30 minutes later, doctors said, without a doubt that Jim's prompt actions saved the boy's life. Jim returned to the game in a blood-stained uniform. A real badge of courage.

After visiting the boy in the hospital, and realizing the family was of modest means, he stopped by the business office and instructed that the bill be sent to him.

This is what a sports Hero looks like! ❤

"Falling in Love With Teaching Graphic Novels": a reflection on not just how and why teaching a graphic novel went so well this year—but also how it became an incredible opportunity for students to tell their own story creatively.
