People are conflating Critical Race Theory with History. Y’all really protesting the teaching of HISTORY in schools. And just because that history makes some uncomfortable, that doesn’t make it any less true.

It's deceptively simple, but the best way to empower a child is to point out their strengths, help them articulate goals, & tell them you believe they can do ANYTHING. Someday they may forget the dreams they had at 12 or 13, but they'll never forget that someone believed in them.

Breaking News: The Biden administration will support lifting patent protections for Covid-19 vaccines, a breakthrough for global efforts to produce more doses as the virus rages in India and South America. https://t.co/dKC5P27cTs

Why do we need compassion? Experience tells us that it brings inner strength. It also benefits others and we face many unnecessary problems when we lack it. To understand this we must develop a holistic way of seeing the bigger picture, which means we must use our intelligence.

Inspired by this tweet and with the permission of @sgrstk I asked my high school students to fill in the blank and as always they delighted me with their honesty and creativity. Happy Spring Break, everyone! ☀️💛

The Renaissance came after the Black Plague, the Roaring 20s came after the Spanish Flu, and _____ will come after Covid-19. Anyone who says the world "will never be the same" is betting against the human spirit because they have something to gain or simply don't use their brain.

Everyone else makes #acnh classrooms on snow days right? and gets their kids to dress up like their co-teacher for Google Classroom banners? 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Ms. Beeman @whenurcurious]

My cup runneth over! Today I received the most beautiful handmade gift from one of my amazing students. My heart is so full (and a little sad because I could not give her a thank you hug)!
I am so blessed every day to work with the beautiful souls at @OVAHSwolves @WCSDEmpowers

Shoutout to everyone who just made it through teaching & learning in 2020!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

[Ms. Beeman @whenurcurious]

With break creeping up, it’s time to say goodbye to 2020 once and for all! Here’s hoping when I see my students again in person in 2021 it is with peace in our hearts and country. @OVAHSwolves @SADDnation

FIRST SNOW DAY OF THE YEAR on Thursday, 12/17/20! Be safe and have fun!

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

We must learn that humanity is one big family. We’re all brothers and sisters: physically, mentally and emotionally the same. But we still focus far too much on differences instead of what we have in common. After all, every one of us is born the same way and dies the same way.
