If a student asks you for an accommodation (ex. an extension) because of their mental health, what do you do? I'll tell you what I do. 1. Validate 2. Accommodate 3. THANK them for prioritizing their mental health! Teach youth that something positive comes out of asking for help.

RIP to the great Beverly Cleary, who taught girls to embrace their "too muchness." https://t.co/HGN3tDKcDI

My whole feed tonight is fellow authors whose life work was shaped by Beverly Cleary.

She didn't just give us Ramona and a way to feel less alone. She inspired us to share our own stories - our own versions of Ramona - to reach all kinds of kids. That, my friends, is a legacy.

Too often, Asian American stories are absent from classroom libraries. @monishabajaj explains why this gap is so harmful—and recommends ways to fix it.

April is just a week away, which means autistic people everywhere are bracing ourselves for what is known in non-autistic circles as “Autism Awareness Month.”

Here are some things you should know before all of that starts, and misinformation/propaganda start being spread:

I believe one of our greatest strengths as educators is the opportunity we have to teach EMPATHY.

Our world needs a strong dose of it.

READ-ALOUD to students from a variety of books & discuss characters, lives, feelings, connections as a community.

[Moore in the Middle @tnmoore520]

There’s nothing standard about this year. Ss grew & what they missed will be made up in years to come bc Ss are resilient & Ts are amazing. Ss deserve to have every remaining day dedicated to their individual needs, not an arbitrary test unrelated to current times.

Independent reading is not about a level; it’s not about a certain number of minutes. Independent reading is that reading we do that helps us develop independent thoughts - not thoughts directed by anyone else. #g2great

My students made these in STEM this week and they were so proud of their games! I was able to play a few and they were so fun! I always love seeing the ways my students are creating with Mrs. Kauffman ❤️

Hey teachers. We have a lot to process with our students tomorrow. If you are a new teacher, consider using this protocol if you are unsure what to say or do. At least this is a start.

This is truth! 🙌
