If you are a teacher & not following @DrBradJohnson you should….like today. This is one of the biggest mic drops!

[James A. Furey @JamesAFurey]

A teacher’s job isn’t to affirm whatever a student already believes. It’s to show them that their worldview is narrow, their knowledge is incomplete, and their instincts are often wrong, and to then help them realize they’re strong enough to handle that realization.

We should be expanding minds, not shrinking curriculum to fit inside small ones.

Great teachers know their subject and their students.

[The Principal’s Office @educator4ever36]

Our children have lost attention stamina. They don’t even have it for recreational activities. Parents - at birth, please incorporate time into your child’s life to develop attention stamina. Let them be bored for a day. Have them create things from their own mind. Let them outside to play with nothing but basic toys. Teachers see the impact of screen based childhoods every day and it’s not good. At all.

[James A. Furey @JamesAFurey]

Nothing in education matters if students can’t read. Not engagement, not equity, not technology.

A system that regularly graduates functionally illiterate students is worse than broken. It’s worthless.

[Lilé @LilevanderW]

@EboneeDavis The space you live in reflects the energy you carry. A cluttered home breeds a cluttered mind, while a clean, intentional space creates clarity, peace, and protection. It’s more than tidiness, it’s honoring yourself and the energy you allow into your life.

[Orange Book 🍊📖 @orangebook]

The more you exercise, the more high-energy you become; the more you write, the more clear-minded you become; the more you take risks, the more ambitious you become.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Happiness depends on the freedom to exit toxic relationships and enter healthy ones.

97k people, 34 countries: Well-being is higher when changing groups, friends, and partners is easy and acceptable.

A vital form of liberty is the ability to choose the people in our lives.

Standardized tests have NO place in elementary education. They’re developmentally inappropriate for young children, who are still building essential cognitive skills like problem-solving, abstract thinking, and impulse control. Many also lack the fine motor skills or experience with computers needed for these assessments. These tests are designed for older students or adults and don't align with how young children learn—through exploration, play, and hands-on experiences.

[David DeMatthews @DrDeMatt]

Large voucher programs have failed in other states partly b/c of a lack of quality control, esp when private schools pop up out of nowhere. Achievement is driven not by magical forces of choice, but by teachers & administrators w/ adequate time/resources who are well-prepared, continually learning, & monitored to ensure they follow a thoughtful curriculum & implement evidenced-based programs & instruction.

Teachers have three loves: love of learning, love of learners, and the love of bringing the first two loves together.
