The way I remember the ACT is this: if your parents could afford/take you to prep classes, buy you the prep books, and if you had time/encouragement to read them & study, you’d do well. It wasn’t a test of knowledge and skill as much as a test of preparation.

This!!!!

So much of a secondary teacher’s success seems to depend on us recognizing that we weren’t these kids’ only class that day.

They came from somewhere, and they are headed somewhere. We aren’t the only adults telling them to remember/do/navigate things.

Only #AbbottElementary fans know that there's so much Black excellence in this tweet. 😂

@educator4equity Pray for those in Fort meyers. My area (north of Miami) had tornadoes last night but otherwise we’re good.

@InclusiveJoeB @VictoriaTheTech This is super helpful! Thanks… I’m currently my transitioning and it’s a journey for sure. I feel what I’m getting from the both of you is the more clear you are, the more align you’ll become with your authentic purpose beyond the classroom. Thanks again

Have you ever had a student placed in your classroom merely because there was an assumption and expectation that you could fix them?

@dmaclee @blackandlit1 Probably thinking what I experienced teaching in the Bay Area. This research did not translate well with all teachers to say the least

[I Am Ebele @rahlizzie]

@blackandlit1 This was highly debated when I taught in the Bay Area. I found it frustrating because I came across so many teachers who didn’t implement ELL strategies because they were “honoring” the students’ culture. Like ma’am you can do both!

@misscocoamoore Lol 😂

First grader: When I grow up, I want to be a principal!

Me: That’s awesome! You will be great! What made you decide to be a principal?

First grader: You get to walk around in fancy shoes just saying hello to everyone all day.

Me: 😳

Shoutout to the women who are becoming more confident in who they are. To the women who are working on themselves personally and professionally, and celebrating the small victories. The women who are loving themselves through the process. I hope you have an amazing day.

[I Am Ebele @rahlizzie]

I really love Dr. Bettina Love’s work.

@AkieaG Lol 😂 right

[Cite Black Women. @citeblackwomen]

As the academic year begins, we want to remind everyone to #citeblackwomen! Whether it be in your research or in your syllabi, a lot is missed when the intellectual contributions of Black women are left out. We are dynamic producers of knowledge, within and BEYOND the academy!
