@sheriem24 I started following these ladies on Facebook and get notifications about fashion deals. They're all great about posting things in a teacher's budget and the top one listed is especially good about teacher-friendly outfit items.

@sheriem24 I know these say "jeans" but they feel more like khaki material and are on sale now. I have multiple colors. https://t.co/dlcv6RegXq

@sheriem24 Banana Republic Factory is having a big sale through Friday. Their chinos are under $30 right now.

@sage_stage The fire alarm went off in the middle of lunch and we had to stand outside waiting for the fire department in 20 degree windy weather, and then all hell broke loose.

It's #CSEdWeek and Iowa has a new video showing how CS is everywhere and for everyone! Have you seen it yet? https://t.co/9bPiqJnCVu #CS4IA #CSforIA @IowaSTEM @iowa_aea @IowaCSTA @NewBoCo @IADeptofEd @DLGWAEA

@melton4iowa By not allowing absentee participation, caucuses in Iowa currently exclude participation from anyone in the Safe At Home program to protect their home address from abusers and stalkers. Their addresses are not visible in the voter reg system, and they MUST vote absentee.

@grimalkina @analog_ashley So many resources I've tried in the past have flopped. I don't have the time or career expertise to make them myself.

[Robin West @RobinNWest13]

@grimalkina @analog_ashley High school computer science teacher here. Finding engaging, accessible examples to share with teens has been TOUGH, and I've been searching for years. Please send resources my way! BTW,many students' attention spans are about 2 minutes, and reading levels low.

@JRappaport27 @Mr_Rablin @Dean_of_math @TG2Chat @HumResPro I thought diagnostic assessments were used in order to identify starting points for differentiation that offer students voice and choice. What am I missing?

@MrKJTierney @PresidentPat I was teaching a student who relied on lip reading in addition to other hearing supports. I switched my mask to a shield when speaking to the entire class and switched back to/added the mask when moving through the classroom.

@SarahSommer The first few weeks back from any break leave me exhausted. You get into a swing after finding some balance and building endurance + routines.

@Knenglishteach @bethbasinger @admjstaff Do you remember when a student brought me a worm, assuming it was drowning in the rain? They put it in my potted plant. Not exactly a gift...

@amanda_holsclaw @IowaSTEM Thanks! I'll check it out.

@IowaSTEM A4: there is a huge amount of trauma and politicization around it, plus the challenge of keeping up with latest/trusting info. Maybe give ideas for how to give students a sense of agency and control via STEM applications. #IASTEMchat
