[JR Renna @RennaTech]

The #digitalequity goal of bridging the #homeworkgap just took a big step toward reality. The @FCC, under acting chair ⁦@JRosenworcel⁩ voted 4-0 to subsidize high speed internet for low income households and close the #digitaldivide. 👏👏👏 https://t.co/72zoNlZGa1

Service Learning allows students to take action on real life problems in their community. When we bring this into schools, we can help our students create a deeper understanding of their community and develop authentic life skills.

Learning more about #visualliteracy this week with #edtechteamonline. @mistersill has me thinking deeper about bias and how authors may bring in possible intentions of manipulation.

My heart goes out to all of our #RedHillElem families affected by the #GrizzlyCreekFire and the evacuation notices in Dotsero. This is getting scary.

When redesigning your learning space make sure to figure out your WHY. Why are incorporating the elements you are? Once you understand your why, you can share it with your community, the parents, admin, students. Let them know this is something worth supporting. #edtechteamonline

Teachers, this fall don’t underestimate your abilities. Your strengths and talents are more than enough for you to bring your best. Your best is what your students need. And if things do get overwhelming don’t be afraid to lean on your admin and teammates. You are a team!

Does anyone know good tools/resources I could use to help kinders w/#research? I was mostly thinking about doing various read alouds and whole group KWL charts. Are there any age appropriate digital tools to use for research with #kindergartners #PBL #remotelearning #kindergarten
