@HaneyInkslinger Yes, especially paired with good coffee

An important reminder!

[Alfie Kohn @alfiekohn]

Vonnegut's reflection is a breath of fresh air in an achievement-crazy culture - and particularly welcome in contrast to the grit mindset that says kids must stick with one thing until they master it (even if joylessly) rather than sampling a broad range of experiences.

The asteroid-vanquisher flew
And hit as we aimed it to do,
A thrilling appliance
Of intricate science
And vengeance for dinosaurs too

Amanda Gorman has a brand new poem to help us kick off 2022 in a positive way ✨

[Karen Noel-Bentley @knnbee]

@rose_kenzie Rose, I am so sorry for your loss 💔

[Susan Hopkins, EdD @susanhopkins5]

Wow. Beyond the obvious brilliance of these 2 1/2 minutes, it’s making me think of connections to children’s learning. While the goal is a song that resonates (feels right), the path + the final “product” are not predefined. They emerge. What does it remind you of in your work?

[Amanda Gorman @TheAmandaGorman]

Wrote this poem several months ago and it echoed inside me today. Sometimes we have no words. And sometimes words are all we have.

[Karen Noel-Bentley @knnbee]

Well said, @paxtonmargaret

Educators! Would you mind completing this survey and help my daughter with her dissertation on digital literacy? MSc in Publishing candidate, Napier University, Edinburgh, way too far from her mother.
