La FIFA preguntó a una japonesa que por qué recogen la basura en todos los estadios a los que asisten. Ella lo explicó: "Es nuestra cultura. Pero también es una señal de respeto hacia el país y estadio que nos acoge y hacia nuestros jugadores. Para nosotros es un honor que nos reciban aquí y no podríamos dejar todo hecho un desastre".

Kızımın öğretmeni, sınıftaki ilişkileri düzeltmek için muazzam bir yöntem bulmuş. Cuma günleri her çocuk, hafta boyu kendisine en iyi davranan arkadaşının adını ve sebebini bir kağıda yazıp kutuya atıyor. Kimse kimsenin notunu görmüyor. Pazartesi günü öğretmen sonucu açıklıyor. Kimin kaç oy aldığını söylemiyor, sadece haftanın şampiyonuna çikolata veriyor. Bazen şampiyon sayısı ikiye, üçe çıkıyor. Kızım dün akşam "Anne, sınıfta gizli bir rekabet var. Herkes çikolatayı kapmak için birbirine deli gibi iyi davranıyor" dedi. ( devamı 👇)

Breathing Life Into Words. I like to use word sums and morphology matrices in content instruction. I used a matrix with the base spire meaning "breathe" because I'm teaching my 5th graders about the respiratory system. Additional words with the base spire include transpire, transpiration, aspire, inspire, expire, conspire, and perspire.

Is Topgolf still coming to CityGate? Construction was supposed to start in 2026, but the site developer says there is no timeline yet. Would you take a swing if it opens? rochesterfirst.com/news/busi…

A WWII veteran returns to Utah Beach, the Normandy shore where D-Day unfolded. This Memorial Day, we remember the Americans who never came home, the heroes who gave everything so we could be free.

🔥The Fordham report just dropped — and we support it 100%. No surprise to parents who’ve been on the ground demanding their kids’ right to READ. Here’s what they’re calling for — and we’re PUSHING in state governments nationwide: 1️⃣ Teacher prep programs MUST teach the Science of Reading 2️⃣ Licensure exams MUST test real reading science knowledge 3️⃣ Every K–3 teacher gets SOR training in their first 2–3 years 4️⃣ Districts MUST choose from state-approved, science-aligned curriculum. This isn’t a wish list. This is the roadmap. Parents started this movement. And parents will FINISH it. 💪 @Fordham @EdWeek @ExcelinEd @dyslexiaIDA

Elon Musk was asked: “What’s one invention that’s made us worse, not better?” His answer: short-form video. He called it straight-up “brain rot.” And he’s not wrong. A local news report highlighted how kids are getting flooded with dopamine hits every 15–30 seconds from YouTube Shorts and TikTok-style content. Brain scans show overactivation in the reward centers, which over time trains the brain to crave instant gratification, shortens attention spans, and contributes to attention problems, behavioral issues, and even emotional dysregulation. Doctors are now seeing cases where it’s hard to tell the difference between true ADHD and what they’re calling “environmental ADHD” caused by excessive screen use. 78–84% of kids aged 2–12 are on YouTube, often for 2 hours a day. This one feels especially urgent for parents. How much short-form video are your kids (or you) consuming daily — and have you noticed any real impact on attention span or mood?
