I’m stunned by the lack of sympathy for Antonio Brown. He’s clearly struggling. Is this how we treat people who are going through difficult times?
A quiet classroom is not necessarily a thinking classroom. Some of the most enriching classrooms I've ever been in seem, to the outsider, loud and unruly.
After 23 students were arrested in 3 days at a Louisiana high school over fights, a group of fathers created Dads on Duty: 40 dads who take shifts at the school. There hasn't been a single incident at the school since the dads showed up cbsnews.com/news/dads-loui…
Brisket on the fire. Baseball on the TV. A hot summer night in Texas. I know there is a lot that’s wrong in the world. I will continue to bear witness. But tonight Jean and I are going to savor some of what is right, together.
Shout out to libraries and library workers. We love and appreciate you 📚 that’s all
@CoachMiramontes @MundFootball Coach M, you will be greatly missed at MHS, but we are excited for your opportunity to return to your alma mater. You are forever part of our @MundyBaseball family! Loved competing with you, looking forward to competing against you! Good luck at PHS!
One of the least noticed harms of the standards-and-testing movement is that its focus on individual subjects (ELA, math, history) discourages interdisciplinary teaching, which begins with broad questions and problems so students can draw from whichever disciplines are relevant
Standardized tests favor the privileged and the affluent. They are best at measuring family income and education.
Bill Gates went to an elite private school with small classes and the best of everything. A real reform would be to make every public school as fine as Lakeside Academy in Seattle.
Double masking can significantly improve protection from Covid-19, blocking over 92% of potentially infectious particles from escaping, a CDC study says cnn.it/3tKbquJ
Congratulations to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and to the city of Tampa, the cradle of champions. Now put on your fucking masks!~
We must try to incorporate understanding of the workings of our emotions and the ways to tackle them into our education system. If we are kind and compassionate, we’ll be honest. That leads to trust, stability and friendship.
Am I the only one that does not give a rats ass about the Superbowl ?
I can't actually start fires with a space laser, but I can hold Marjorie Taylor Greene accountable for saying I can and calling for the execution of our nation's elected leaders. That's why I introduced legislation to censure her & call for her resignation.
We are forced to use SBG. Might be the worst education fad I’ve witnessed in my 17 years.
Brief thread by a history teacher regarding his realization that he needed to stop grading altogether because "standards-based grading" is a dead-end: x.com/CovingtonEDU/s… (I, too, addressed the pointlessness of SBG in is.gd/PHlgix.)
At least not the ones who cared about education.
The strongest supporters of high-stakes testing were never teachers.
Well that would be humane! Not exactly the job qualifications for school administrator.
I wish states would suspend formal evals this year and let admin focus on the following eval: How are you doing? Are you taking care of yourself? How is your family? How can I best support you right now?
