What an AWESOME first day in history! My students jumped right into big questions about freedom, government, power, & what makes a society work. They debated, questioned, challenged ideas, and made me laugh along the way. Best year ever! @risdsocstu @ljhpatriots #RISDDreamOn

Seeing the #unreasonablehospitality @WestwoodJH_RISD schedule pickup when a cheerleader remembered my daughter by name and a scout troop offered us water. Thanks for being the good! #DreamOnRISD

Come play with history! 🎉 Join me during Session 3 of GROW (July 22 & 23) for Hands On, Minds On, where we'll explore manipulatives that spark historical thinking—not just engagement. Hope to see you there! #SocialStudies #EdTech #risddreamon

Today reminded me why I love teaching history. I am so incredibly proud of my students during our Mock Trial of the Declaration of Independence. They asked thoughtful questions, defended arguments, challenged ideas respectfully and rose to the challenge beautifully! @ljhpatriots

8th-grade social studies teacher Cate Chesser brings the Declaration of Independence to life through student mock trials—an engaging way to review big ideas, evidence, and civic learning! We enjoyed serving on the jury! @IamBranum @KristinLeeper9 @RichardsonISD #RISDDreamBig

@OKWildlifeDept @olivegarden can we please just get the ok wildlife department some Alfredo? So maybe it's not fed to the wildlife?

Putting my classroom to bed after a great first day is wonderful. Here's to a year of dreaming big and making dreams come true. #risddreambig @ljhpatriots

[Cate Chesser, M.Ed,NBCT @catechesser]

Somedays of professional learning just help you feel the sparkle and shine of a new school year. Here's to dreaming big in RISD! #pause #RISDDreamBig #PLinRISD @RichardsonISD

@DecatHazel @eduleadership @JayWamsted I disagree to a point. High performers do need specialized instruction and to be pushed. They deserve intervention, too. It just looks different.

[Cate Chesser, M.Ed,NBCT @catechesser]

@ginnyhogan_ Hope it was as painless as possible. I've been there.

@Plinker011 @1776ProjectPac How would you feel if your child was receiving special education services and now your neighbor knew? If your child had a bad day and the entire community knew it? Students have the right to privacy under federal law.

[Cate Chesser, M.Ed,NBCT @catechesser]

@BEVERLYANGEL @1776ProjectPac Yep. I answer questions about the bill of rights, declaration of independence, geography, economics and more while keeping my personal views to myself. I listen regularly to students who I disagree with and never tell them. It's not my place. Total overhype.

[Cate Chesser, M.Ed,NBCT @catechesser]

An excellent day of professional learning @Region10ESC

[Cate Chesser, M.Ed,NBCT @catechesser]

Let's do this. @modernclassproj @classroomflex #dcme
