We need to create schools that are organized to meet the needs of the students they serve. We need to stop expecting students to adjust the schools, and if they can't - stop blaming and pathologizing them - instead, focus on engagement and nurturing the love of learning in them.
THIS IS EQUITY 🔥. As a teacher of children with no prior formal schooling, time will & must be individualized and variable, while mastery learning and high expectations must be fixed. What if we redesigned the whole education system this way? ⚖️ @OCDSB @CarletonHeights @skill24

We did this for about 10 minutes. It was both amusing and meaningful. What we do all the time. All the Ss were incredibly impressive and expressive. Multilingualism is awesome.

What if we treated the expectation that all students will LEARN at a high level as fixed and TIME students spent learning (as opposed to strict blocks per subject) as the variable? @joellerudick @161616SL @sksmithedu @bjfr @ELmagazine Sept 2021 edition
