@ellenfored @Moms4Liberty Please define “common sense education.” What”hard-won freedoms” for women/ minorities are you referring to from these documents? Approx 40% of the state identifies racially as BIPOC. Was the racial profile of the state reflected at the conference/ on the board?

Is now a good time to talk about the importance of teaching social studies?

[Kristi Barnes @TeachingInRm605]

This is madness. How deeply distrusting and painful...😔

@BadlandBison This means everything coming from you! 💕

Home away from home update. Things are looking mighty different. Still no kiddos coming for at least another 9 weeks. #40/180 #virtualteaching #virtualteachingchronicles

@dr_westgard Did our Arctic expedition not adequately prepare you?!? Also, yesterday was the first day below 85 in months! It’s still an inferno here and I don’t like it.

[Kristi Barnes @TeachingInRm605]

This seemed like the most fitting outfit choice after the number of students on my roster doubled. Happy Monday! 31/180 #virtualteaching #virtualteachingchronicles #backtoschool2020

Engaged in lots of conversation about grading practices today. Virtual teachers: Do you grade for completion, accuracy, or both? 28/180 #virtualteaching #virtualteachingchronicles
