THIS: “I believe that now, more than ever, educators have a responsibility to hold themselves individually, & hold others mutually accountable to the repair of our country & race relations”-@kelisa_l2teach, 2017 @DoDEA Teacher of the Year #BlackLivesMatter educationpost.org/teachers-must-…

@todd_stahl_art Wow—shocking is exactly right. Students have always loved Dali for the visual appeal and the depth. He is extraordinary in so many ways. But I thought Banksy would poll better.

@todd_stahl_art Banksey v Dali is delightful. Going to be super close I bet.

@todd_stahl_art Upper right bracket is the strongest remaining bracket in this critic’s mind.

@todd_stahl_art A few impressions...Monet over Van Gogh is understandable but not my preference at all. But Manet over over Rembrandt is outrageous. And Picasso out is a travesty.

@todd_stahl_art Picasso down in the first round...to Caravaggio!!! 😳 A titanic upset.

@MsEcclestonCCS @khd_ocmboces I assume so but those details are forthcoming from SED.

NY Social Studies: the 1st new Framework-based US Regents will be given in June 2021 per SED (not Aug 2020 or Jan 2021).

Rocking with Enduring Issues and @QuistGreg! #NYSCSS20con

Thanks for sharing your Google Folder, @QuistGreg! #NYSCSS20con

Thank you @nysutEVP Jolene DiBrango for advocating for teachers and students and opening today’s NYS Teacher Center meeting.

@Kirichenko_263 @jim_mendonis @BarnumWoods Thank you for sharing this. Those students are so engaged and obviously have a great teacher who is inspiring them.

Students had such insightful discussions, stating claims and explaining them with their evidence by using the “four quadrant” picture strategy! Thank you @QuistGreg for inspiring us with this engaging strategy! @jim_mendonis @BarnumWoods #GreatHappensHere19_20

@GoldsteinENL This is sooo great. My favorite part is when one student says, “Wait wait I know the whole thing!!” Thank you for sharing this.

It was an honor to speak at the @ThomasTitans graduation today for the Class of 2019. So proud of these students.

@EduKate8 @SchroederHS @TracyWyant @BATMANDERSON @CherylynWilson These students are the best and they put real thought and conversation with each other into these notes.

Homeroom kids writing notes of gratitude to former teachers during @SchroederHS Warrior Week. fyi - @TracyWyant @BATMANDERSON @CherylynWilson you will be getting some mail :)

New info on the Global Regents Exam. No “reliability” question in the Part 2 Constructed Response Question sets. Here is the news: p12.nysed.gov/assessment/ss/…

Our kids need daily social studies (and science) instruction in K-5 because “the idea that kids don’t need to acquire knowledge until after they’ve learned to read ignores the fact that gaining knowledge is part of learning to read.” forbes.com/sites/nataliew…

@KatieAndersonSD @missshelbyreed @mrs_smoke The Stanford History Group has some great Middle School resources. It allows students to be historians. And for inquiry, I would turn to C3 Teachers. There are adaptable OSR resources in both places.

Any of my SS teacher friend have great ideas for @missshelbyreed she is a brand new teacher looking for advice @QuistGreg @mrs_smoke
