Listening to @AndreaAkalleq describe her commitment to “acknowledging rights” and “network weaving” when addressing climate justice in her work at @nature_org

"You have to recognize that Alaska is a #NativePlace and you are on #NativeLand"
#ClimateJustice work is not new to our Elders .. we're picking it up and carrying it forward. Check out this new collective film https://t.co/IUWxDyTjVb

This is how my three boys felt yesterday after finishing their first week back at school. I’m so proud of them and all of their @MilwaukeeMPS teachers for welcoming them back to another year. Thank you! 😌🤩😌

Some yummy reading to get us ready for the new school year. Thank you, @_cierrajade_ !

So thrilled to have the print copy of the fall issue of @RethinkSchools!

In my essay, I detail how my Black girl co-researchers and I collected oral histories from our loved ones and turned the stories into art: https://t.co/HT6h7lK6fe

This thread on giving feedback is a thoughtful set of approaches for responding to student writing — and a fitting bookend to #currins547 and the semester as a whole. Thanks @danmartin_7

[Dan Martin @danmartin_7]

There should be classes on giving feedback on writing. It's really hard to do well. Making feedback that allows someone to continue learning, build confidence, & stay motivated at the right time is very hard to do & takes practice. Feedback can't just be a reaction to learning.

@richnovack @WeirFarmNPS @CWPFairfield Rich, this looks awesome! I want to go! Any room for doodlers from Milwaukee?

On this cloudy Earth Day in MKE, I'm inspired by the power of trees and their underground "mycorrhyzal networks" that build resilience through interdependence. How might we mimic these networks as teachers?https://t.co/Y5k61gvx3x

Thank you, young one, for this apt visualization it fits my current state of mind as I come out of CoVid.

“The academy is not paradise. But learning is a place where paradise can be created. The classroom, with all its limitations, remains a location of possibility. In that field of possibility we have the opportunity to labor for freedom”

@gurkiratsinghse I miss you. I miss you. I miss you (loved your tweet and hope that you are doing well in your new space <3)

@GregoryMichie I felt the same way when we had to cut down a dying Hawthorn in our back yard. I took photos of the stump to remember its presence from its stronger days. Thanks for sharing the beautiful shots of your giant

Collage processing while I listen to delicious conferences sessions about “beloved teacher community,” “justice-oriented mentoring” and “love-based activism.” Thank you #Ncte2021

[CandanceDoerrStevens @digflicks]

Grateful for my students’ candid and critical reflections on how to empower their own students via content, culture, and voice #currins545

[Hank Green @hankgreen]

Seems like society has settled on prizing creators, but let’s not forget that teachers have been creators the whole time. They do it all.

[CandanceDoerrStevens @digflicks]

@GriceLongwell Where’s the tweet about your book? I’m curious to know more. I too am first gen.

[CandanceDoerrStevens @digflicks]

Reminiscing the good words & vibes at the Milwaukee stop of NWP #WriteAcrossAmerica marathon this week. "The Milwaukee Map Mix" created by @anomalysoul rocked the house, reminding us that with struggle comes confluence & transformation. Take a listen: https://t.co/b07RWdiNIa #fb
