@mrjuanresendez I feel like I can’t move through content at the pace I want. So either I’m better because I’m more aware of my students or lost some skill somewhere! Lol

Universally masked traditional school is my 5th teaching model in the last 15 months. Anybody else having a little trouble getting back into traditional teaching shape like me??? 😤😤😤

@mrjuanresendez I don’t think this needs convincing this is already known (at least in political data). It is rural vs urban, and coastal vs interior. But we are fooled into believing political parties are the lines.

People think the most important political divide in our country is Rep v Dems or Libs v Cons. I submit rural v urban. This is the divide that will most likely determine our politics for the rest of the century.

Deep thoughts at 3:00 am - there is a Trader Joe’s in my near vicinity. For the last 3 years I’ve been a 45 minute drive from the nearest one, and had to time when I went there as a special treat…. Rural life requires a lot more planning that no one gives people credit for.

@raincitycoder I loved it!! Probably going to read the books this summer now! It had a great level of fantasy while still feeling believable. The types of magic where also novel and connected to humanity not just nature. I’m looking forward to more.

Join teachers nationwide from 2/14-2/21 with “I Love Teaching” week, a concept piloted by state teachers of the year and now in it’s 5th year. After all we’ve accomplished during this crazy year, let’s engage in activities that remind us why we’re teachers!!

Tonight, I shared space with some future educators at @UCIEducation with @stacyyung. Our Building an Antiracism Classroom Community continues to build antiracist allyship and with each educator we work with, we are one step closer to racial justice. @Mrjonresendez

@CohenD A7: Remix. Having a combination of options depending on the meeting. Keep site meetings in person, but sometimes it is great to meet with colleagues in my district over video. We need to talk for 30 minutes and to get to one another it takes just as long. #caedchat

@CohenD @principledlady @WeAreCTA Would be a curious thing to have a literal teacher retreat at a camp. There is a different sensation of comradery and conversation when you eat and sleep and attend workshops together non stop. #caedchat

@CohenD I also think the online option might allow for shorter connection times so “lab” time can happen in between and then reporting back on experiences and refinement. It might allow for a different experience than most PDs in the past. #caedchat

@CohenD A6: Attended a #cangss rollout training on text strands It was amazing but purely online. Looses a lot of the social connection and learning by just meeting other teachers. However I met teachers from across the state which I normally couldn’t do in person. Have both!! #caedchat

@ProvocaTeach @CohenD @CAedchat In my experience it is the sense of having a roadmap for improvement and the increased feedback and hope for growth and improvement students feel, that has made #sbl or #sbg effective. Not just the format of my grading system. #caedchat

@CohenD @CAedchat A3 - Remix to standards-based grading, e.g. "Can you solve an equation?" "Can you explain reasoning?" Late work is common with all in flux. SBG is more forgiving of late work, & better for encouraging intrinsic motivation (which is what leads to long-term success).

@CohenD Even when we return to the classroom don’t think of Async as HW only but also technology leveraged learning that frees the T for small group instruction or remediation. Students work Asynch frequently, just now we can rethink how that lets us do more. #caedchat
