Can you tell we’re excited to finally hold an in-person @ISB_MS Club Infinity session? It was the perfect opportunity to play with some recently rediscovered paper folding puzzles. Colour puzzle by @scottekim. Crazy Eights puzzle shared via @mathequalslove. #mslearns #mathclub

This may well be the most important book of the decade on teaching. Opening chapters lay out the kind of thinking that might get me back here more often to talk about learning.

Success is no longer about individual competition or linear thinking about qualifications. It is about what is vital for our planet, our communities, our relationships, and ourselves to thrive. #innovativeschools #internationaled

I miss being able to hand out #mathgame boards and pieces to #clubinfinity students - but, this slides version was the next best thing. And yes, when I play against a student, I play to win. :) Get a copy to play with your students: bit.ly/9MensMorrisDG #mathed

On a day for the history books, @TheAmandaGorman delivered a poem that more than met the moment. Young people like her are proof that "there is always light, if only we're brave enough to see it; if only we're brave enough to be it."

"It seems it is past time, once and for all, to stop asking young people to try harder to fit into systems that do not respect or seek to understand who they are." #changeschool
Our ambition as educators for 2021 should be for every school community member to feel valued, respected, understood and cared for. This is a massive ambition. It requires a shift in school culture, of priorities, of voices that are heard. @MisterMinor @NancyinLux1

Don’t Work on Vacation. Seriously. "Spending weekends or holidays working undermines one of the most important factors that determines whether people persist in their work: intrinsic motivation. " hbr.org/2020/07/dont-work-on… #wellbeing #edchat #cpchat #edtech #COVID
