Today I checked a lifelong goal off my list. I presented at #NCTE24 and had a blast learning from other dedicated educators around the country. I am so grateful for this opportunity!

I voted! Have you? #Election2024 #VoteBlueDownBallot #VoteTexas

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Here's my message to young people: you wouldn't let a bunch of old people decide what music you're going to listen to or what clothes you're going to wear – so don't let them decide your future.

Teaching demands an underrated amount of acting.

like we’ve never heard a kid share that idea before.
like we’re excited about a moment in a text for the 3rd period in a row.
like that project hasn’t been done many times before
like we are not tired, frustrated, annoyed, etc

@MarcusLuther6 I really want to know why so many of us feel the situation is going better than expected. Is it a policy change? Something else?

Literacy is a fundamental human right. Today, on #InternationalLiteracyDay, we acknowledge the collective responsibility to ensure every child has access to the literacy education they deserve.

@MarcusLuther6 I’ve always done a “Silent Conversation” to start a unit, but I like this idea better. I’m going to try engaging families by having these statements on the board during Back to School Night and comparing what adults said to my students.

Admin: You know the saying "Maslow before Bloom"?

The teacher version of that is "PD AFTER room."

It is really tough to focus on any PD, no matter how valuable, when we know there is a mountain of furniture stacked in a corner of our room.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

[Tyler Rablin @Mr_Rablin]

One of the most important questions I find myself asking as I head towards another school year is, "How can I make is easier for students to see evidence of growth?"

It's a simple question that has spurred profound changes in my classroom.
