Hi teachers & friends! To celebrate the upcoming release of my 25th book, I am giving away 2500 copies of I Survived the Dust Bowl over the next 10 days.
Today: 10 class sets of 25. To enter, like this post & retweet. Winners announced tomorrow am. ❤️
We did it!!!
Together, we finally repealed GPO and WEP, the unfair penalties that denied retired educators, first responders, and other public service workers their full Social Security benefits.

Due to unanticipated rostering challenges, the 5Essentials Survey opening has been delayed. 😔 We are working with @UCHICAGOImpact to resolve these issues 🤝 Emails will be sent to administrators prior to the survey opening to give you access to your survey accounts.
U-46 Students, Families and Staff: Our schools will be open today! However, some U-46 buses might experience delays this morning, Tuesday, Jan. 9, due to the winter weather. Remember to make sure children are dressed warmly. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Students know when a teacher is real. They have a radar for authenticity.
* Admit when you've made a mistake
* Say Thank You
* Don't feel like you have to know it all
* Listen to them/ ask them about their interests
* Use humor/ stories
* Let them know/ see you really care
