It is extremely important for educators to work on their mental & physical health right now. Whether school is in person or virtual, we are dealing with stress that we have never encountered. Take time for yourself daily/weekly - read, walk, rest, spend time with loved ones.

Thanks @JasonReynolds83 for playing Brain Yoga with kids around the world each week. I'm totally going to play with my summer school classes :)

Currently rereading two great anthologies from @diversebooks to read, write, and discuss with my summer school students. It's tough to choose which stories to use, since they're all so well written.

Every teacher you know is "off" for the summer. But I promise you we are also reading and learning ways to try to help our kids when they cone back to school, whatever that looks like in the fall ❤ edutopia.org/article/covid-1…

Even when times are hard, try to show gratitude. Studies have found that giving thanks and counting blessings can help people sleep better, lower stress and improve interpersonal relationships. @maanvisings kqed.org/mindshift/52762/how…

This is Narwhal. He was born with an extra tail on his forehead. It hasn’t wagged yet but he’s working on it. 14/10 always read the instructions before assembling your puppy

#Sketchnoting is a helpful way to process and retain information. And in some cases, it can help young people better communicate with one another and resolve social conflicts at school. @Kschwart @HeckAwesome ow.ly/bhGS50x0SaH #edchat
