"Building a classroom library that offers “windows, mirrors and sliding glass doors” to all children is more than a numbers game. It requires thoughtful curation of who is represented and how." @KaraNewhouse https://t.co/6Gon98ltff

Earlier this week, I was having a tough time teaching. I stopped & said, “Ok, I’m in the Red Zone. I’m very overwhelmed. My head’s feeling a lot of pressure & I can’t think clearly. I’m going to put on a read aloud video, & do the Breathing Sequence to calm down.” +

"I would argue in most classrooms, it's the teacher doing the lion's share of the work. And the person doing the work in the classroom is the person doing the learning. So why would we rob our students of the opportunity to learn?" https://t.co/1vDYGtqJz7

@SenorG And that grades reflect what they do, not who they are. Teachers are also frustrated by the Fs and dealing with demands of accountability, teaching on screens, hours planning, more. We are trying to help the students learn and keep up their spirits in spite of the situation 2/2

[Alice Baum @lionsteamdms]

@SenorG So easy to judge without knowing the entire story. Teachers I know are bending over backwards to help the students learn, and also to help them learn how to be accountable. I tell my students that PowerSchool is a “to-do” list. If there are zeroes, they have something to do. 1/2
