Too often, teacher prof. development is an explanation of mandates or a "deep dive" into test results--usually tagged onto an already emotionally exhausting day. Please, let's balance this out with PD that lifts us up and reminds us why we love this profession so damn much.

Emmett Till would have been 77 today. He grew up just one town over from my granddad in Mississippi. I think often of how what happened to Emmett could have so easily happened to him. How arbitrary racial violence can be. How a white woman told a lie and then his life was over.

6 strategies for a culturally inclusive classroom:
1. Learn how to pronounce students' names.
2. Set aside time for relationship housekeeping.
3. Have 1:1 talks w/ students.
4. Connect w/ parents.
5. See yourself as students see you.
6. Know your content.

Did you know?

@SPPS_News has a summer food truck that stops throughout Saint Paul to hand out free meals to children ages 18 and younger.

The food truck runs Mon. - Fri. until August 17.

Check out the schedule and bring the kids when the truck is in your neighborhood!

Very important poms yearbook quote.

[Ms. Purman @ms_purman]

I use Parts Unknown in my curriculum a few times a year. He was a great example of what I try to teach my students to be: a global citizen. I hope you have found peace. https://t.co/TpmyE9ZS5Q

“Low plastic stool, cheap but delicious noodles, cold Hanoi beer.” This is how I’ll remember Tony. He taught us about food — but more importantly, about its ability to bring us together. To make us a little less afraid of the unknown. We’ll miss him.
