Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employedβ€”but in jobs that pay poverty wages

β€œDo you really expect Mamdani to get everything he’s promising done?”

No. I’m sure a lot of what I want won’t happen. But I’m ready for someone who’s willing to actually fucking try rather than tell everyone why trying is pointless and must be saved for an undefined later moment

Concept map of the β€œradical” curriculum tradition

Being in a doctoral program is giving me language and context for pedagogy I continue to develop in my own professional sphere. It's really cool and enlightening to read about my own pedagogical roots and have language to describe what's missing as far as implementation in the classroom in 2025.

Hey institutions that host professional development, podcasts, ed news, ed conferences, etc:

Educators are desperate to hear from other educators about what’s working in their classrooms TODAY. Find the practicing educators and give them resources to teach other educators.

Required my juniors to use em-dashes and semicolons, which I taught them how to use last week, in an in-class essay today. They were showing each other their em-dashes and semicolons. Monsters officially created.

Your Students Struggled on an Assessmentβ€”Now What? You can give an assessment, use the results to design differentiated learning experiences to catch students up, and still keep up with pacing requirements.

One of the trickiest things is to figure out what to do when students struggle on an assessment, especially when mandates require you to forge ahead with the pacing of the curriculum.

Here are my best approaches.
