@HSGlobalHistory Love this. A PD on agency and continuity/change sounds great too

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@HSGlobalHistory @NYCSchools @JFernandez693 Wish I was able to attend!

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@HSGlobalHistory @WalterDGreason @Dieselfunk Good to hear! Keep it coming.

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@ChristieNold The question “what are you learning today?” is also too general. So, the topic is an acceptable answer. Maybe the question should be: what skill are you practicing? If that was the type of answer they were seeking.

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@govtgal Hi! If possible, I would also like to see how this works. Thanks!

@TheJoseVilson This! 100% I teach SS and have been thinking about plans of attack in my own space, but also need to strategize with like-minded folks.

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@TheJoseVilson They got us with the long game.

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@TheJoseVilson I remember skimming a book in HS (I graduated 2001) about the purposeful dumbing down of America that was to come. It was spot on.

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@phoebephoenix @TheJoseVilson Yes, that’s true. Unfortunately, it is largely ignored in the elementary grades in favor of ELA and Math because they are tested.

@ValeriaBrownEdu Congratulations!

Just finished watching the wheelchair curling game for gold with China vs. Sweden and it was exhilarating! My heart was actually racing wondering if certain shots would be made. Wow! #Paralympics #curling @Paralympics

@debreese @JeanMendoza2016 @rdunbaro @ElloEllenOh @TasslynM @BookRiot @ZinnEdProject Thank you for the heads up

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@ValeriaBrownEdu It is sooo much fun! I joined a curling club this year.

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@Granola_Duck @AmericanAir Ain’t no way that’s doable for anyone that is supporting themselves/others.

Is it the friend saying this is what it is or is this the company saying this is what it is?

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@TheNapMinistry This is me and I’m here for it! NYC based.

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@ValeriaBrownEdu I’m glad you’re giving yourself permission to choose more joy!!

Adding things that bring me joy to my budget has allowed me to LIVE life.

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]

@HSGlobalHistory Know of any resources to teach this skill (and related ones) explicitly?

[Ms. Spears @MsSpearsTweets]
