Today was my ride-or-die work wife’s last day before she transitions to a new role in IT. I’ll miss so much about our time working together, & I am thrilled for my friends in IT who now get the amazing opportunity to work more closely with the one and only @lborkenhagen ❤️❤️❤️

Excited to play with @AdobeExpress Podcast! Just got access to the Beta. I really like the idea of being able to create a Podcast template to share with students as they are beginning to learn about creating a structure for a podcast. #AdobeEduCreative

Yesterday was #EducationSupportProfessionalsDay, and we give thanks to the people who help make our schools complete, like Tech Specialist Katie Kirdahi at @StratfordLndgES! Known for brightening up the school with her warm smile. Ms. Kirdahi is beloved by all.

Here's a fascinating dashboard from @VDOE_News with trends in annual SOL pass rates from 2016-2022. What do you notice? What do you wonder? doe.virginia.gov/statistics_…

I notice that most division scores in reading declined, but many stayed close to steady and a few even did better. I wonder what strategies they employed that might have had an impact on achievement?

I notice that everyone📉in math. Not totally shocking, IMO, given that we went through a whole dang pandemic & it's socially acceptable for even adults to say "I'm not a math person." I wonder what high-yield, research backed strategies we might employ to address this issue?

The more I learn about @Lucid4Edu, the more I love it. This AM I'm learning about how to use layers in Lucidchart to easily share a process or idea from multiple perspectives - before/after, this or that, etc. #fcpssbts lucidchart.zendesk.com/hc/en…

I stand in solidarity with @WoodbridgeHS students who will be doing a walkout this afternoon in protest of Youngkin's rollback of the 2021 VDOE Model Policies which uplift & protect trans and other LGBTQ youth. I commented in opposition this morning & I hope you will, too.

So excited about my newest book 😍 ty @onlinekyne for the suggestion! “…studying math is like running. Although the end goal may be to play a sport like ⚽️ , 🏈, or 🏀, all of them require some form of running. Math is like running, but for your brain.” mathletters.com/

📢Important PSA for my pals who vote in Virginia: CHECK YOUR CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT here: vote.elections.virginia.gov/…
DO NOT rely on federal government websites such as census.gov or house.gov - they haven't been updated since Virginia redistricted! 😒

Do you know a teacher or student who uses the tools available in Read&Write or EquatIO? Are you itching to learn more and maybe use them yourself?
Don't worry, @Texthelp is still offering free accounts for teachers! Contact your ATS Coach for more information!

Virginia just released its 2022 model policies and says schools must comply.
It bans all transgender students in Virginia from bathrooms matching their gender.
It makes teachers deadname and misgender trans students unless they have parental consent.
This is horrifying.
