@CTGLA Saw Secret Garden last week (previews) and last night. On Thursday, the show was captioned but last night it wasn’t. If you have the technology, why not provide access for every showing? #captionplease #theater

@pernilleripp Have pre-written referrals posted on my white board so the students knew I meant business. #worstadvice

@HeyListenGames My planner is everything. I buy @passion_planner and this year, I went digital and use their planner on my iPad. Game changer. Everything I need is there and it’s always with me (it even syncs to my phone using @GoodNotesApp). I can’t function without one.

@42answrqstion I’m much less concerned for ME now that my family and I have had Covid. I feel like my chances of getting it again are slim (but of course not impossible). I am worried for colleagues and students who haven’t had it yet. I feel like we aren’t doing all we can to protect them.

It’s a bummer that this is yet another year of our post-#SuperBowl access lesson. Wish I could teach it as history instead of current events. THREE Deaf performers hired and none shown for the entirety on the big screen. A separate website is not #access. #ASL #VisualLanguage

[Angela Merrill (she/her) @amerrillteach]

@SheenaMcfeely @signingmango Yes! Absolutely!! When we make things accessible, everyone benefits! I’ll send you a message and we can coordinate. ❤️

[Angela Merrill (she/her) @amerrillteach]

@SheenaMcfeely @signingmango That’s terrible. 😥 I have a few high school ASL students researching about how to make drive-throughs more accessible with the intent to make a real change. Do you think she’d be willing to correspond with them? Could encourage her to keep sharing her truths!

[Angela Merrill (she/her) @amerrillteach]

How do you determine: 1. When you will use technology in a lesson and 2. Which tech tool you will use for that lesson? #edtech #education #technologyintegration #lessonplanning #edtechchat

Teachers, take the time to pause and listen. To me, cello is one of the most beautiful sounds, only exceeded when @YoYo_Ma plays it. Thank you for sharing your talents with us during such a stressful time. ❤️

[Yo-Yo Ma @YoYo_Ma]

Teachers! This one is for you, for always finding the strength to give young people hope, even in the most difficult circumstances. Thank you.
