We are learning about states of matter - solid, liquid, and gas.
Teacher: Matter is everywhere. What is matter?
Student: Black lives matter.
Teacher: Yes. That's true.

Class discussing how a tree can live to be more than 2,000 years old.
Student: To put that in perspective, that's older than most people.
Teacher: 😳😳😳 Well, it's definitely older than a person.

We watched a video of Christian Robinson (@theartoffunnews) drawing a dinosaur. I invited the students to draw along. Mine looked like a salamander.
A student offered to share her drawing. She held up a calculator.
This is actual footage of my face in that moment.

My class is working with the texts You Matter and Last Stop on Market Street this week. And we used the @Scholastic New article about Christian Robinson. I'm loving the beautiful words, pictures, and lessons we are learning!

Some thoughts on The Golden Globes:
Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are knockouts.
Olivia Colman is so freaking genuine.
Representation matters.
