Ahead of the Ugandan election, we're hearing reports that Internet service providers are being ordered to block social media and messaging apps.
We strongly condemn internet shutdowns – they are hugely harmful, violate basic human rights and the principles of the #OpenInternet.
You are not the only one who has thought: “Dang — my students hate this right now. They are bored out of their minds. I am failing miserably. How will we survive a year like this?”

@SophieGottsch10 Hey Sophie! It’s SO great to hear from you!! 😊 I’m sorry it’s so late responding, I just saw your tweet. Hope you are doing well kicking off 8th grade - so crazy! I’m good, teaching in Uganda. I miss all of you guys from the original #Team616 crew. How are you?!
@pulte I would use some of it towards nonprofit work here in Uganda teaching missionary and expat students. Then some of it to pay off student loans and bills. What a blessing it would be to so many!!
@pulte The gift of $7k would mean so incredibly much! I am moving back to Jinja, Uganda on Thursday volunteering with the local women’s prison system and teaching primary. This money would be able to provide transportation, medical needs, educational needs etc. #giftthatkeepsgiving
End Of An Era.
Officially handed over the #Team616 reigns to @The_STEM_Class last week.
Bittersweet days full of packing, moving, and selling off all my classroom memories.
