Today is International Day of Zoo and Aquarium Educators! Did you know we have one of the nation’s largest Zoo-based Education Departments? It was established more than 50 years ago to link visitors of every age & background to the Zoo’s care for animals & conservation work.

"Emotion and learning are completely connected." Research shows that students who feel safe and supported by adults at school are better able to learn. #HowLearningHappens

It seems like everyone knows recess is important. So...why aren’t things changing?
It's a false choice, recess vs academics. We learn with our bodies as well as our minds. And during unstructured academic breaks, we unconsciously consolidate our learning and unlock creative solutions to complex problems. A piece I edited for @edutopia. #RecessWorks

every night we have cheese time. this is when i am presented. a single slice of cheese for consumption. i know exactly when cheese time is. and delaying it for any reason. is against the law
I try to ask “what do you wonder?” Or “what questions do you have?”

Some students think that “asking questions might lead teachers to believe they’re not smart or suggest to their peers that they’re not cool.” This teacher offers step-by-step guidance to address that. edut.to/2NzpyGa
One of my fave things @iste is the students that are here. We can talk all we want about #edtech but really...it’s all about them. #iste19

Did you know that screen readers can’t read your hashtags unless they are written #LikeThis #notlikethis Being considerate of the details - it can mean a world of difference #ISTE19

Love the expo hall @iste. I always throw the #edtech vendors for a loop because I’m not a ‘school’ person. They’re always super nice though!!
How do you do it all at @iste? Sessions and posters and expo and playgrounds and more got me like🤪🤯 #ISTE19

Yesterday, @sherylabshire taught me (among other things) how to get out of a speeding ticket. 🤣 Looking forward to what I can learn today too. @iste #iste19

While I support people getting out and about, makes me sad people have to be reminded to be respectful and follow rules... #PokemonGO
