We got the opportunity to talk to @DrCamikaRoyal about this book, and I can say as a reader that the award is well deserved! "Where Abbott Elementary Meets the Wire"!

One of the most meaningful conversations I got to have with an author was with Barbara Gottschalk about English Language Learners. It made me wish I served them better when I was in the classroom, but gave me hope for other folks to get it right! https://t.co/NUigAg5i78

My Time at Fort Mill Middle School was so much fun. This time of year, teachers are worn out. It's always good to bring in speakers who can actually SPEAK to where teachers are and give them fuel to make it through!

Thanks again, FMMS #GoJackets #JacketPride #MasteryForAll

Are we changing the policies and practices that COVID revealed are inequitable?

[The LP: Literature in Practice Podcast (UnboundEd) @unboundedTheLP]

For all of COVID's terrible impact, it caused us to pause and see more clearly what doesn't work in our education system. Have we missed opportunities to change it?

Thank you Sheldon Eakins for your book and convo: https://t.co/3yrs0veD5N

What questions are we missing when we reflect on our classroom instruction?

[The LP: Literature in Practice Podcast (UnboundEd) @unboundedTheLP]

How much do we include critical student feedback of our lesson plan implementation when we go into team meetings? Sheldon Eakins blew my mind with this question. It's a possibiity too overlooked.

[The LP: Literature in Practice Podcast (UnboundEd) @unboundedTheLP]

There were some laughs early in our podcast interview with Sheldon Eakins about his book Leading Equity. How would you caption this freeze frame?

[The LP: Literature in Practice Podcast (UnboundEd) @unboundedTheLP]

The latest episode of The LP: Literature in Practice filled with transparency about bias exploration and other moves that can be made that can improve what we teach and how we teach it! Sheldon Eakins' Leading Equity was the anchor!

While I definitely landed in the right place when I became a classroom teacher, this is a gem that I think any prospective teacher should use! Thank you Sheldon Eakins for the book and the conversation!

Thank you Sheldon Eakins for saying the quiet part out loud.

We ALL have biases. Period.

How we process them is what matters. Especially in the classroom.

[The LP: Literature in Practice Podcast (UnboundEd) @unboundedTheLP]

Unconscious biases are real and universal. Educators, what do we do with ours?

Shout outs to Sheldon Eakins for the convo we were able to have: https://t.co/rDMrrFEof1

"Books create portals and pathways and gateways" 📖💡

Thank you Dr. Nelms for your book Leading With Purpose, which creates portals, pathways, and gateways for folks to lead toward equitable instruction!

Full convo: https://t.co/aTGIAElfCo

[The LP: Literature in Practice Podcast (UnboundEd) @unboundedTheLP]

This is one of the reasons I thought it was important to do a podcast focused on educational equity texts. Thanks Dr. Nelms for breaking it down!

[The LP: Literature in Practice Podcast (UnboundEd) @unboundedTheLP]

Good times about good books and good work! Thank you Dr. Nelms for making the latest episode of the podcast a great one! https://t.co/T6zNb0D7Nj

Thank you Dr. Shaun Nelms for the book, convo, and cheat codes for leading teachers towards consistent and sustained equitable instruction! https://t.co/Qq5bvQEpNK

[The LP: Literature in Practice Podcast (UnboundEd) @unboundedTheLP]

An important question for any education leader that's pursuing equitable instruction!

[The LP: Literature in Practice Podcast (UnboundEd) @unboundedTheLP]

Principals, coaches, and content leads at the systems level: How are you empowering those you lead to deliver grade-level, engaging, affirming, and meaningful instruction?
