Mood.

[Ivan Coyote @ivancoyote]

I have officially run out of enough serenity to accept the things I cannot change. There’s simply just not enough fucking serenity to be had at this point. Maybe this is a supply chain thing too, I don’t know.

@TruckTrucks @HECSEducation @TED_CEC We have a 5 yr USDOE TQP residency grant! We use it to pay recipients 27K. They earn a credential, a bilingual auth if they want it, and a masters degree. With a three year commitment to work in our partner districts. It’s a start. It’s better than zero dollars.

@CoreyJPeltier I know we don’t know each other directly, but I’m going through this right now too and am happy to talk if you ever need to. I have three kids and this has been a nightmare. Your questions are my questions too. You are not alone. ✌️

Hi SLO folks! We need your help getting the word out about this #LittleFreePantry event at The Pad THIS SUNDAY. A portion of the proceeds will support LFP’s or if you’d rather drop off some shelf stable food for the collection bin at The Pad! We’re excited about this partnership!

Dear @POTUS Biden,

The US is at a critical point & we need greater access to faster tests

Rapid tests are barely available bc they're regulated here as MEDICAL tools-holding them back

Please write an EO that makes COVID testing in US a Public Health good

Thanks
Ppl of the USA

@sandi_clement I should have signed up for this and am so glad it’s being offered. Though “emerging from the pandemic” seems a little premature 😞

A Sunday sermon.

[Science of Read @ScienceofRead]

What does science say about teaching reading to young children? According to the @WhatWorksED @IESResearch Practice Guide, the evidence is clear and summarized in this infographic. @ILAToday @CECMembership @NCILiteracy @PathtoRead @ReadingForum_Ed @leadforliteracy @ReadingRockets

[Leah Wood @alyleah]

@ASaundersPhD Yeah, boo to ineffective public shaming :(

[Leah Wood @alyleah]

@1Ccpope @DanRather Because you are more likely to infect other people, like my 4 and 11 yr old.

@Daisy_Duke87 @Bill33717227 @PatGermelman @POTUS You have the stats flip-flopped. Kids developing myocarditis and pericarditis from the covid vaccine is extremely rare, and even when it does occur, the cases are usually very mild. Do you know what else causes heart inflammation in kids though? Getting COVID. Cite: AAP
