ELD teacher in CUSD, passionate about equity, acronyms, and aphorisms. Are we educating beyond the expected, or only educating those who meet our expectations?

I hate when teachers say that they don't want to make their classroom political. G, everything in the room is political. The fact that your kids don't have pencils is political. The quality of your desks is political. The admin hired at your school is political...

Yesterday, USA Today published a hurtful piece from the unaccepting parent of a trans student. We issue this reminder in response: Above all, quality mentors trust that transgender youth know who they are and what they need. https://t.co/8YWN5KiTf8

When ELD becomes MLD because math has its own language. 😂
(Thank goodness the math teacher left the posters behind!)

Do our classrooms allow our digital native students' skills to shine?
"Ocasio-Cortez[...]doesn’t just respond to news or release statements like most politicians – she creates her own content and makes her own news, in an unpredictable and authentic way."

I still haven't accepted that lockdown drills and active shooters are part of our children's reality, but this book list has some amazing titles to help students (and adults) with this.

Studies show that relevancy in assignments is critical in helping engage students in math. Yet only 2% of math assignments in our new report attempted to make the content relevant https://t.co/Iy4j4hjDyL #EquityInMotion

New trimester, trying a new seating arrangement as we begin to incorporate community circles and more restorative justice practices!

@DulceFlecha Would you be willing/able to share your presentation or resources?

[Eve Lindsay @elindsay100]

@donalynbooks @speer_teacher @stevimotheral I think this is a great way to incentivize reading. For my 7th and 8th graders, I try to find books that have been made into movies or TV shows, and books made from movies. They loved 13 Reasons, and they are loving The Hate U Give.

I love this photo from a school visit this morning. He hugged the copy of @boltcity’s Amulet: Supernova I gave him for 15 minutes.

This spring, @NPR is challenging students across the country to make their own podcasts. It’s the NPR Ed Student Podcast Challenge. Contest rules and details are here: https://t.co/tSbJpS16Kc

Feeling this so deeply this morning and all year. I need to go deeper with students.

[Eve Lindsay @elindsay100]

Thought-provoking, and part of larger conv abt changing role of schools and educators.
What does it mean to teach in our stds-based, assessment-driven system, when communities seem to still need us to help guide Ss to being responsible adults?

Some good ideas in this thread for ways to inspire students to read, and start to build a community and culture of reading. 📚❤️

[Donalyn Miller @donalynbooks]

@speer_teacher @stevimotheral Please don’t incentivize the 40 Book Challenge. I’ve spoken and written against the negative long term effects of reading incentives for years. What about book talking, conferring, & opportunities for students to share books with each other? Possible?
