Elon Musk: 'I’m a free speech absolutist!' Also Elon: bans journalists for tweeting public flight data he didn’t like, sues critics for hurting his feelings, and throttles posts that don’t kiss the ring. Free speech for me, but not for thee—classic X hypocrisy. @elonmusk

@McBrideLawNYC The idea that a president, even a former president, cannot be charged for commiting a crime is just a delusional interpretation of executive privilege. Presidents were never ment to be above the law, but that is what conservatives want for Trump.

A5: Checking in with students on how they're feeling, how much other work or life stressors they are going through, and building time for students to take a break regularly.

A4: Student anxiety and lack of comfort can prevent student from feeling safe to share their ideas, answers, or feelings. SEL activities and taking an interest in students lives beyond school helps student feel more relaxed.

I ask students a series of questions about who they are and the things they like, then ask them how someone else with X characteristics would answer the same questions. It gets students to think from other perspectives and realize the differences in how people think

[NC Regional Education Facilitators @NCREFTeam]

Q3. What classroom activity or activities have you used to increase awareness and set a practice of treating everyone with kindness? #NCBTChat #KindnessCounts

A2: I use a self care bingo card of brief relaxation activities and choose one to do either as a class or individually

[NC Regional Education Facilitators @NCREFTeam]

Q2. Share a resource that you use to center yourself and refocus on kindness when classroom/school tensions are high. #NCBTChat #KindnessCounts

@elonmusk Maybe letting white nationalists, rapists, pedophiles, domestic terrorists, and human traffickers back onto Twitter is more hate speech than free speech?
Also, it takes an egomaniac to think that boosting tweets supporting @elonmusk counts as free speech.

[Daniel Troutman @dtroutman75]

Since @elonmusk took over Twitter tweets that are supportive of his decisions have been boosted to prop up his ego. Meanwhile he has let people who encouraged violence and/or are suspected of human sex trafficking back on the platform if they support him. #egotrip #egomaniacelon

Can someone tell me what the fired Twitter employees did all day?

No, seriously. Elon fired 75% of them and Twitter still works the same.

[Laura (Papsun) Stewart @lpapsun]

A4: Working with staff from different departments helps to identify what teaching strategies or activities work best for teaching specific skills like reading comprehension, visualization, etc. It also helps to talk to former teachers to see what works best for specific students
