@colbertlateshow loved the comment about a naval base in ID re: @realDonaldTrump CO wall comment, but ID has been there done that. https://t.co/FPTqdkSKz5 #idnavy #history

“...if Thomas Jefferson matters, so does Sally Hemings..if D-Day matters, so does Black Wall Street...the question really is not whether we’ll be tied to the somethings of our past, but whether we are courageous enough to be tied to the whole of them.”

@myrondueck Assessment from the Latin asedere - “to sit beside” - how different would your classroom be if this is how assessment worked? #imla2019 @idahomiddle

[Micah Doramus @teachwcourage]

@myrondueck implores us to #askthem. Include students in more ways. #imla2019 @idahomiddle

[Micah Doramus @teachwcourage]

The work is hard.
The work is stressful.
The work is emotional.
The work is exhausting.

But our kids are worth it.

@tomwhitby Information overload. If I turn my eyes for five minute I miss so much information. That and there are so many other platforms that people are using as well. #edchat #GoodOldDays

A fifth grader should not be up crying at 10 pm that she needs to finish homework. Her online homework should not produce a numerical grade that gets her even more upset. What is worse than seeing a child’s love for learning get squashed before your eyes ??

For @forgeintlschool the gym and kitchen are crucial elements for engaging the community. The kitchen enables Forge to offer free and reduced-price lunch, ensuring that the school is accessible to all students.

In Middleton, @forgeintlschool’s per-seat cost was ½ that of the @MSDschools proposed new school. Find out how @forgeintlschool did it, and what tradeoffs they made: https://t.co/7uKCMrccNe #idleg #idedu

New report by @bellwethered shows ID's charter schools struggle to finance facilities & must make compromises because of unequal access to facilities funding: https://t.co/XX5hqWwp07

We just assume students know how to Google search ... They don't. They know how to type words into a box but how to do it effectively and to analyze the results. We have to teach them.

@KatRogersHern is presenting TOK across the Continuum. Excellent presentation so far: “Really, TOK is a course in empathy.” @forgeintlschool #FRIDAYSatFORGE #FIREatFORGE

@goodn3rd So the question is: what should we do about it? I’m not ok with the school promoting the message. It’s different than kids listening on their own time/devices.

[Micah Doramus @teachwcourage]

I’m concerned, appalled and baffled at the warmup music at my daughters’ volleyball game. I’d like to pose the question: to what extent should school leaders be responsible for the messages being promoted by their athletic programs? #metoodad #microagressions #carefullittleears
