@Frank30441471 @GovStitt @sec_walters @tulsaworld To be fair, the Land Rush also allowed for the creation of all black towns (including Langston, home of Oklahoma's only HBCU, so people could escape the horrors of Jim Crow.) It wasn't a white only event.

@MaryBorenSD16 I'm running that same campaign with my students pretty soon. First time to DM! Have fun! #DnD

[Kalen Kattestad @ms_kattestad]

@KimberBlodgett My students have had similar conversations. I just tell them. I don't understand lying about one's age. I'm proud I've leveled up to Level 44.

Dear OK businesses: After Nov. 1, if I see a person with a gun in a store, I’m leaving my cart, or my purchases on the floor, and walking out. Anywhere else. Saying why. Wherever I am, I’m gone. Shunning/boycotts can work en masse. Join me. Guns out? Walk out. #gunsoutwalkout

[Kalen Kattestad @ms_kattestad]

@thnorfar Definitely better about saying "no" to multiple extracurriculars this year. I feel bad for the kids but I'll be a better teacher for it. Having a tough time getting rolling this year even so.

@MaryBorenSD16 I worked at a school that gave all the teachers wasp spray. Shoots up to 20 feet!

@KimberBlodgett I'm wondering about our area. MLK/63rd got it bad from what they said.

[Kalen Kattestad @ms_kattestad]

@KimberBlodgett Lots of power outages.

@KimberBlodgett @MaryBorenSD16 I have a friend fostering his niece. She was eligible for extended services until 21 but got her GED while she was in a Juvenile Detention program. Now they get no assistance. As if the GED and her low ACT score will get her in to any post secondary program.

Recruiting kids for DnD club. Mock battles at Activity Fair. Channeling my inner @matthewmercer "How do you want to do this?" #DnD #CriticalRole #falconup

@themamalisaof3 Thanks for the ideas, I can't wait to use them in my classroom. #owpctrw

[Kalen Kattestad @ms_kattestad]

@DrTerriC @1a Kinda thrilled NPR retweeted me too.

[Kalen Kattestad @ms_kattestad]

@1a The upcoming report about personal financial literacy: Working on my PFL lessons rn. Hard to make younger students care about it but there isn't always time in the schedule to present it to older ones. #oklaed #PFLmatters

[Kalen Kattestad @ms_kattestad]

Thread. Makes sense.

@AubreeNoelle2 I have an affiliation for public transit also. I love the subway.

I love this teacher's idea for helping students: https://t.co/KAypFsJlsG via @donorschoose

Hey I made an Amazon Wish List for my classroom supply needs if anyone would like to help out. I would especially love some retweets. I'll be at Millwood this year.
