Today, I got to share some of the structures that have become traditions in our school on Two Writing Teachers. So grateful for the opportunity to share and also for the people that I get to work with every day. https://t.co/wN35jfvO3S
Day 15: Today a very rich discussion about the teaching of writing with one of our favorite educators, Matt Glover. Loved this talk: https://t.co/SouTl0bazT @pennykittle
It’s not hard to see that a whole lot of people who currently care about what kids read don’t appear to read much themselves. They don’t seem to understand what books do. Books provoke, heal, inspire, and educate! The power and joy of books are well-known to readers! #readingjoy
We are excited to launch The T(h)inker Place @thethinkerplace. After we developed Literacy+STEM and STEPS 4 Equity, we believed there was one piece missing between content and coherent practice—engineering spaces. This multi-year work is being led by @majestyacademic & @jelmarsh

How do we carve time for reflective practice? This week's collection considers this very question.

Leaders need to be willing to listen to bad news. They need to be willing to hear uncomfortable truths. And they need to create a culture in the organization where everyone feels ok speaking up.
Join me and @colleen_cruz, two of the founders of the Black History Is American History Institute. We'll demonstrate how to break the cycle of canned narratives and teach about the brilliance of Black people through literature, activism, and innovation.https://t.co/NM1vmRcZ8V

“The first reading of a book is a gift.” My favorite quote of the morning from @lester_laminack No word study, analysis, comprehension questions. Enjoy the book as the author meant.
"How much diversity is enough diversity?" Wrong question.
"Who's voice is still missing? Who are we excluding? How do we welcome them?" The right questions.
