@ctovani I use book clubs and the students enjoy them. My biggest barrier is accountability. Nothing stops meaningful discussion like having students not ready to read!

Bezos (worth $160+b) will fund homeless charity with donations he can deduct from his taxes after forcing Seattle to repeal a tax on his company that would have funded help for homeless. Seattle, meet your feudal lord.

A5: Invite Ss in on- level Eng10 to look into Lang when we invite Honors Ss in the spring. #aplangchat

[Victoria Willson @Victoria__W_]

A4: Going to try breakfast this year as a boost! #aplangchat

[Victoria Willson @Victoria__W_]

A4: Looking at growth, discussing preparation, and snacks! Ss lose steam with all the AP tests prior to Lang. #aplangchat

@FCHSDugan Is the article available on the internet?

[Victoria Willson @Victoria__W_]

We are doing a unit on language and culture. Delving into power/language. #aplangchat

[Victoria Willson @Victoria__W_]

@bethbasinger We read this for the summer assignment, too. Great discussions about culture!

A2: Conferences with students help individualize instruction. Many ways to approach analysis. My biggest challenge! #aplangchat

[Victoria Willson @Victoria__W_]

A1: We are now using AP Potential to connect Ss to AP courses. Casts a wider net than Honors tracks. #aplangchat

[Victoria Willson @Victoria__W_]

A1: Our school does not have barriers for Ss, yet most are Honors track. Only one 504 student took Lang. #aplangchat

[Victoria Willson @Victoria__W_]

Rethinking writing rubrics. Smaller, focused. 25+ blocks don't provide real feedback.
