I spent two hours yesterday rethinking PD work for fall based on these ideas. Thank you, Sherri!

BREAKING: Governor Greg Abbott is hit with a HUGE lawsuit from parents of disabled Texan kids over his ban on school mask mandates, who accuse him of violating discrimination laws by making it too dangerous for disabled students to return to school. RT IF YOU SUPPORT THEIR SUIT!

I have mine already and it’s amazing! Thanks again, @writeguyjeff for your inspiration and brilliance!

[Cris Tovani @ctovani]

Look what I got! Being a “grammar-phobe,” I can hardly wait to use these ideas with kids. #loveit!⁦@stenhousepub⁩ @writeguyjeff⁩ ⁦@TerryTreads⁩

"So many groups have their histories known, their successes celebrated, their heroes honored, but we in the disability community have been left behind," says @judithheumann. @CripCampFilm, documentary up for an Oscar tomorrow, aims to change that https://t.co/DR48zXSGdC

Best movie I watched last year. @judithheumann is a hero.

[Judy Heumann Legacy @judithheumann]

"Because of @CripCampFilm, people want to learn more about the disability movement and it is enabling those with disabilities from diverse backgrounds to have our voices not only heard but taken more seriously. We demand nothing less."

What a great way to show students you believe in them- gives a strong sense of agency.

@skhooldesign @MarkOvermeyer This week as students were collaborating on Video Game Design I asked “Would you like me to sit in on your planning or should I check in later?” Some groups preferred later, some now & some were a mix. I think they felt empowered (after the shock of choice wore off.)

[Carolyn Hillarious @chillairous]

Love this idea about crafting micro moments that enable students to shine. Thanks @MarkOvermeyer and @skhooldesign #TheEdCollabGathering

[ShelfieTalk @ShelfieTalk]

❤️this question from ⁦@MarkOvermeyer⁩ ⁦@skhooldesign⁩: how can we intentionally design micro-moments for students to shine and show strength? #TheEdCollabGathering

[Dr. Mary Howard @DrMaryHoward]

If we don’t value a particular text (comic books) are we limiting our student vision to what writing can be to our personal comfort zone?

POWERFUL question!
