As a US history & civics person, I need to say:
NCSS conferences need more appeal and connection to world history and geography colleagues, at the very least. Plus ancient history, economics, psychology, media teachers, and so on

The Library of Congress Teaching with Primary Sources (TPS) has awarded grants & continues to do so for multilingual learner projects. If you’re game to join the TPS Teachers Network, I’ll be glad to connect you with them. Tpsteachersnetwork.org/register Chris is in it!

Thanks to #ncss2024 #ncte2024 for two fabulous conferences. Stay tuned for video interviews w/ English/Social Studies educators!

Thanks to terrific Ts Mark Finchum, @lizramos.bsky.social Syd Golston for our #JournalisminAction session on how journos have covered Native American issues in history!🗞️📺
