Yesterday was Nat'l Principals Day (on point that this was a Sunday, when leaders can rest for a minute). To be an effective P, a leader has to be great at 1,000 things. The brilliant, loving P's of @Competency_NYC community have that *handled*. Y'all are amazing; our 💜 to you.

2/2 ...are blamed for lacking responsibility or motivation: https://t.co/FXCxQsBuNl
As @DebMeier put it, “If we deliberately tried to come up with a way to widen the achvmt gap, we might just invent homework.” (Never mind its lack of acad benefit & its neg. effects on curiosity.)

[Alfie Kohn @alfiekohn]

1/2 Qualitative study explores how homework perpetuates inequities: Richer kids have advantages that help them succeed with assignments & are then "seen by teachers as responsible, motivated, & capable." Conversely, kids who struggle w /HW because of fewer resources at home...

Our students Anais and Giselle created this beautiful art piece of Frida Kahlo that is in our hallway. They created this as part of their dream team project for beautification around the school. Here is the students write-up on their art piece…

At their best, grades can be accurate, supportive, bias-resistant feedback based on evidence of what a learner knows and can do. Here's a leveled resource to grow what you know about about equitable youth-centered grading. https://t.co/3LUe3D7f9f

[Competency Collaborative @Competency_NYC]

"If I got 100, I was a perfect person. If I got a 60, I was just no one." Grades affect self-worth. Grades can block learning (check the research!). Grades have a harmful history. Grades create competition. Grades open up & close off opportunities.
