“To focus only on monolinguals when studying the human mind is a kin to how heart disease and diabetes were studied, exclusively on white men under the assumption, that the findings were applied to everyone. We now know that heart disease manifests differently in women than men, and that sugar is metabolized differently in the Indigenous populations of North and South America. People who speak more than one language or dialect, have different linguistic, cognitive, and neural architectures than people who speak only one language.” Marian, 2023, p 14 & 15 #ValentinasBookshelf @VioricaMarian1

With many #newcomers joining our schools and classrooms, it's vital that our spaces are welcoming and inviting. We think this advice from the Harvard School of Education is spot on. https://t.co/ylCdDJmCzR

I am at a loss for words. 🥹 All I can say is I must read it. Grandma’s take part of our soul with them when they go. 💜

[Angie Thomas @angiecthomas]

Dear Grandma, the hardest thing I’ve experienced so far was watching you lose your memory and forget me. So I wrote a book about a girl who tries to save her dad from that same fate because I wish I could’ve saved you.

It’s out today.

Love, your baby Angie

This is how I scaffolded a lesson w/ my co-Ts:
- looked at their document from last year
- added an image to go w/ the text
- added synonyms behind unfamiliar words

Co-planning = to co-teaching

[Dr. Michael Cardona @mcardona1989]

These young men willed a win tonight for the ⁦@SanMarcosCISD⁩ community. They dedicated the game for our young student who tragically passed. They came to me at the HS today and told me, “we got you sir, this will be for the community and our fellow Rattler.”
