“Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.” ― Desmond Tutu

When students are invested in the process, assessment becomes a catalyst for learning. #edusky #sblchat

Texas Education Board to Vote on Bible-Infused Lessons in Public Schools A new curriculum would focus on Christianity more than other religions. A kindergarten lesson on the Golden Rule, for example, would teach about Jesus and his Sermon on the Mount.

This is so dangerous. Separation of Church and State is fundamental to this nation. And weaving in Christian teaching into our schools is an absolute violation of that ideal.

Seeing more educators on BlueSky feels like the innocent days of the bird. Let’s make the community even stronger and welcoming! #edusky

Two women in conversation, text reads: Special educators’ expertise is maximized when they play a role in co-designing classroom instruction.

We waste the resource of our special educators if their role is mostly helping with assignments. Their expertise reaches so much farther when they have a role in co-designing instruction. That takes #EdLeaders planning the time for this. #LeadInclusion #EduSky #InclusiveEd #UDL #EduSkyChat #UDLchat

An app is not going to change your life, but the educators you meet there will.

Tonight I’m reminded of this old idea I often shared on Twitter.

An app like this isn’t going to change your life, but the educators you meet here will.

Grateful to have a space like this open again.
