@tbeasleyjr What are LDOE’s plans for supporting districts in both hurricane preparation and response? Since students might be displaced from their homes or have no power and they won’t have a school building to go to for their learning, how will they continue to learn?

@EmmaRadford4 @blueegg3r @ReadingShanahan Strategies for AP Lang would serve you well. Also, https://t.co/C4Na9bc9YP. Skip to Close Reading in the Guidebooks. The circles provide a schema for tackling “accordances” in complex text.

@natwexler @readingwriter12 @ClassroomD4 @TorreyPalmer1 Ooo—I think I’ll be there, too! I hope to see both of you!

[Whitney Whealdon @whealdon]

Revisiting and reflecting on 7 years of work was both affirming and thought provoking. Thanks @natwexler for challenging all of us to do better for our kids! And thanks for the mini-reunion with @ClassroomD4 @TorreyPalmer1 and @readingwriter12—wish it were in person not writing!

[Whitney Whealdon @whealdon]

Another thoughtful and immensely practical read! The education profession is made better because of your brains @MJLiben @LibenDavid and my life is enriched by your mentorship!
