Responses from students today when I told them, "a grade does not define you"

"Yes it does."
"Tell that to my parents"
"I need it for my GPA"

What kind of monster have we created...

In Korean, the phrase Black Lives Matter translates to Black Lives Are Precious. You more than matter. You are more than worthy of protection. Black lives are beloved, cherished, dignified, and made in the Image Divine. #BlackHistoryMonth

[Clint Smith @ClintSmithIII]

Your annual reminder that Dr. King believed in guaranteed universal basic income that gave all people a dignified life, guaranteed housing for all, guaranteed access to a high quality education, & said that “no one should be forced to live in poverty while others live in luxury.”

The saddest part is that teachers were trying to ring the alarm on this two years ago and everyone was too busy patronizing them and calling them "heroes" instead of actually listening to their concerns and warnings. So much of this was preventable.

I heard a rumor that the BEST way to get back at Lincoln Riley is by getting vaccinated

Wooo! #GoPokes!

Got my booster and my flu shot today! I'm sure my left arm is going to tell me all about it tomorrow.

We may think we are solving a problem by pursuing “learning loss.” Instead we are framing a deficit narrative about students that perpetuates the very problem it seeks to solve. Instead, let’s talk about “JOY loss” (@GholdyM), cultivating learning LOVE, & an abundance mindset.

I hate standardized tests! What a waste of time and money!

[Bobson Wong @bobsonwong]

Today I sat through a training for the NWEA MAP tests being given to most NYC students. I can't believe how much time and $ is being spent on these unnecessary, useless, expensive tests. Teachers do NOT need to give tests to measure learning loss. #mtbos #iteachmath #edchat

When my D&D group meets I usually wear the color my character does. But it's also Fall in Oklahoma, and this color is the wrong football team color! 😬 #NotASooner #JustAnElfSorcerer #GoPokes #OkieNerdProblems

Joe Cancel student loan debt to the vaccinated and watch what happens lol

[Kristin O’Dell, M.Ed @mathandsushi]

Excellent advice

[Meena @meenamil]

last year I rationalized the series of poor decisions around school reopening as general incompetence in an unprecedented time — this year I am convinced these are (and have always been) intentional decisions meant to permanently undermine trust in public education

plz stop calling them vaccine passports and just call it immunization records because we have ALWAYS had those and ALWAYS had to show them for jobs and school.

@TulsaSchools here's an idea

[Mrs. Ace @gemellamamma]

Spoke to a woman today who is a 1st grade teacher in Falmouth, MA. She told me her school’s policy for close contacts for covid+ is: close contacts who aren’t vaccinated can return to school IF they consent to a rapid covid test every morning for 10 days before entering school.

[Kristin O’Dell, M.Ed @mathandsushi]

@NicoleCBowden Ohh I can see it now!
