The success of this school’s equity event spurred an even more impactful event—and lasting learning and growth. 🪴 @bethpando and Fay Kim share how everyone made it happen: https://t.co/nf3YEME3Vc
Educator Friends: 📚 It is not enough to actively engage in equity work, if we don't continually reflect on our own blindspots and privilege. 👀 Read about how I was reminded of this lesson, and how @Tre_John_son helped me understand. https://t.co/0XhR6zBL9w
Thank you for the love,@edutopia! It is a privilege to share my perspective & (hopefully) support & inspire educators! ✏️📚 https://t.co/wDgqOTCBU4.

@MrTomRad My co-author @katiecubano & I wrote a book with stand alone chapters for busy educators with direct access to ideas from across disciplines. Our goal was to offer a PD experience for teachers that treats them like the creative intellectuals they are. https://t.co/VwKPoLKRpp
@plugusin Like this quote from @AdamMGrant, "It is often said that where there’s a will, there’s a way. What we overlook is that when people can’t see a path, they stop dreaming of the destination. To ignite their will, we need to show them the way. That’s what scaffolding can do.”
@jal_mehta @sarahmfine Efforts to solve disproportionality without ensuring that what we are providing access to is actually equitable.
Ensuring that historically marginalized students have access to higher level courses is only the first step towards equity.

@emilyfoxkaplan I love this piece, Emily. My favorite line is, “I believe that you’ve experienced what you say you’ve experienced.” Thank you for writing it. It is a gift to the world. ❤️
As educators, decisions influencing student learning are part of a day's work - but #decisionfatigue clouds our minds + judgment.
Gain resources to focus on priorities, resist the “tyranny of choice,” & make confident decisions. https://t.co/4CRL1jkbxf @bethpando @katiecubano

Tech use in classrooms is a balancing act! ⚖️ Educators are powerfully positioned to guard students against digital distractions + overstimulation. Guide students to reclaim focus + connection by reconsidering reliance on screens: https://t.co/4CRL1jkbxf @bethpando @katiecubano
