Headed home after a fantastic 3 days on the island. Cadets learned the honor, courage, commitment and discipline required to make marines.

Some educators are the “cool teacher” simply because they are naturally cool people. Their ability to connect well with students is not fake, forced, or phony, it’s just them.

My 10 yr old autistic son’s homework is always about life skills. I thought everyone here on #ActuallyAutistic Twitter would appreciate his answer. 😂

My current pondering: I’m starting to hate the term “differentiation” because it means we didn’t plan a lesson with all of our students in mind to begin with. Does “differentiation” allow us to blame the Other/“lesser” students who don’t fit how we think students should learn…?

Amazing day @ the Village. Started with new student/parent orientation and ended with our Back to School Jam. We hosted hundreds of community members ALL DAY. Our Village showed up and showed out! #loveyourVillage #villagestrong

Kid scores 100% on a retest... Only given a 70%. For what possible justification do we put scores in the gradebook that do not match what a student knows? There is no average time to learn something. Punishing students for taking longer to learn something seems archaic
