@QtJaybee @MichaelGarofola Did you note the two pipe bombs found by DC police? ‘Cause they brushed over that too.

[Meredith Cosier @artinventionlab]

For real.

I can’t believe how many teachers are teaching both in-person and virtual.

So Trump, who demanded 12 hours ago to stop counting all ballots, now wants every ballot re-counted in Wisconsin. Got it.

[Mark Ruffalo @MarkRuffalo]

@realDonaldTrump It’s not strange. It’s mail in Ballots and Absentee ballots during a pandemic. We haven’t finished counting the votes. Be patient. There are millions of uncounted ballots. Let the process happen. We have been doing this a long time. #CountEveryVote

The next “Drawing Upon Imagination” Part II Jamboard is based on the ideas you all shared with me. Would you like a copy?

[Meredith Cosier @artinventionlab]

If you had your virtual school year start this week, "You Might Need To Hear This," too.

It's a book I wrote for my students for an experience that doesn't quite make sense.

@jedipadmaster @rjallain We keep assuming a teacher will be ready to come back to work at 14 days. Unfortunately, many require much longer than that to recover.

[Meredith Cosier @artinventionlab]

@AmyNieft @JenRoberts1 Specials on elementary, rotation if co-teaching, rotation on middle and high (30-90 min variances)

In my case as an art ES, they want us to do a cart- so I as an individual will be visiting 24 classroom spaces that I don’t control practices in, to see 100+ new students a day

[Meredith Cosier @artinventionlab]

@jaybock @JenRoberts1 6.9 million is what my county expects the PPE and cleaner as additional cost. Another consideration, typically each student comes with 1-4 disinfectant wipes containers as part of the B2S list. Can anyone find those? So what are teachers sanitizing with in between?

[Meredith Cosier @artinventionlab]

You a educator? Read this WHOLE thread. A parent? Read the thread. An exhausted, but well meaning adult? READ THIS WHOLE THREAD.

Now, please. And thank you for your thoughts.

[Jen Roberts, NBCT @JenRoberts1]

For the people advocating we open schools five days a week ‘as normal’ please immediately host a gathering in your home for 36 children for six hours. What? That’s too long? Okay that’s make this easier, three hours. Put on a movie give them some snacks...

@Headhunter1 @LeonaLioness6 My mom once harassed me for not coming over often enough, when she moved 110min away. I reminded her that she put 5 states between her and her parents. Parents can’t always see hipocrasy until it works against them. Live YOUR life, for YOU.

@trollinguphill @BrentTerhune Too concerned with the real truth on dihydrogen monoxide.

[Meredith Cosier @artinventionlab]

In 2014, 12-year-old Tamir Rice was playing with a toy pellet gun in a Cleveland park when officer Timothy Loehmann shot and killed him within two seconds of getting out of his patrol car.
