I've been waiting for someone to get this for so long. Thank you YA author Jason Renyolds for saying, "you can't be anti-racist but tease people about their weight." AMEN

What an awesome example of PBL.
My honors zoology students recently created @makeymakey dissection operation games which they coded using @scratch and designed their parts to 3D print all while learning about an animal of their choice #stem #pauldingstem

Did you know that today is World Storytelling Day? Celebrate today by listening to the stories of people from different cultures or in different languages or by telling your own story!

This is a great question! One we should definitely think about continuing next year with backchannels and jamboards and new tools we now have available thanks to the pandemic.
How might we continue the chat feature (in a non-tech moment) in the face-to-face classroom to include all voices including our introverts? #SpringCUE @cultofpedagogy #MERIT19 #KCICIO19 @capcue

“There was a moment in sports when employing a coach was unimaginable—and then came a time when not doing so was unimaginable. We care about results in sports, and if we care half as much about results in schools and in hospitals we may reach the same conclusion.” Atul Gawande

Just read a quote in #DistruptingThinking by @KyleneBeers and Robert Probst that bears repeating "...to hold on to ideas when evidence and reason suggest that a change is sensible is to fail to be responsible to oneself."
Helpful information for educators talking to kids today about yesterday's events at the capitol.
We're saddened and concerned by today's events. Many of you carry the additional burden of having to immediately address today's events in your classrooms tomorrow. In this thread, we'll share some resources we hope will help with your next class and the days to come.

As schools remain closed, but businesses start to open, now is a great time to work on self-awareness with our kids (and ourselves). We are all feeling so many emotions, and knowing what our triggers are, and how to react will make us all better people. understood.org/en/friends-fe…

Mindfulness is an important part of my life in managing stress and anxiety, but it can be very helpful for children as well. Check out this youtube channel and free app for guided mindfulness videos and sleep stories for kids. youtube.com/channel/UCjW-3do…
