Every educator has due cause to go hide under a blanket for the next 2 months. We have been bled dry.

But some folks get that FUN is something we can create in any given moment - a salve for kids & adults alike.

@ccdevol @MsIrvingTweets & Mr. Evans show how it’s done. #vibe

I’m hearing more & more talk of learning loss, while witnessing firsthand the overwhelming learning GAINS my students have made this year. I think it’s well past time for us to have some honest conversations about our priorities in education. What would you add to my list below?
