Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!

We admire you for choosing to be a teacher, a "magician" whose impact will be far and wide.

We are grateful for all that you do to see the full humanity in all your students and families.

Please retweet and help us bring our Reagan doll home. This was my niece’s doll and our family is heartbroken all over again.

To the family, the doll holds great significance as it was given to their daughter on her 10th birthday, before she died in December #bringbackreagansdoll https://t.co/nNMYdpZvY5

Three universal truths:
1. Teachers are not babysitters.
2. Teachers can’t wait to be back in the classroom once it’s safe.
3. Everyone needs to wear a mask.

“Recognize your students of color, let them know you see them. They feel invisible. Just because you’re uncomfortable with it doesn’t give you an excuse to continue to disserve your students that way.”

“Racism puts enough burdens on educators of color; white colleagues can’t also expect them to end it.” Here are some ways white educators can help teach about race and racism.—via @Tolerance_org

If you teach Black kids, it is your responsibility to spark conversations with them (and your colleagues) about race. If you don’t teach Black kids, it is your responsibility to spark conversations with your students (and your colleagues) about race. Discomfort is no excuse.

“If kids open books and "the images they see [of themselves] are distorted, negative [or] laughable, they learn a powerful lesson about how they are devalued in the society in which they are a part," Rudine Sims Bishop, a scholar of children's literature, wrote in a 1990 article

Posting this again for teachers who haven’t read this. This is why I don’t celebrate Dr. Seuss during Read Across America. This matters to our students of color. It matters to me. When you know better, you do better.

What is my job when students have access to all the knowledge in the world in the palm of their hands? My job is to INSPIRE and ENGAGE. #CASTEAM19 #proud2bePUSD

Tinkering, making, and engineering. Collaborating to create a wheel that’ll go the farthest. All we used was paper plates, pipe cleaner, and a chopstick. @mrs_stodola @ArmstrongPUSD #CASTEAM19 #proud2bePUSD #STEAM
