@inspirekiddos This is wonderful!! So happy to have inspired :)

We always begin our math time with a routine that incorporates #numbersense #patterning #datamanagement #measurement and #SEL skills. Ss are really making connections to other areas of the curriculum. Thanks to @MsSchmidt_YR for this inspiration!

Interactive Classroom Tutorial! After receiving requests for instructions to create your own hyperlink classroom, I have put together a quick video tutorial. You can find it at the template link here: bit.ly/classroomtempl… Have fun!

Rich conversations around the barriers/myths in equitable assessment and evaluation #YRDSBAssessment

This. @pgorski #YRDSBAssessment

🙌

The only way to create more equity is to identify and eliminate the inequities @pgorski #YRDSBAssessment

Be sure to emphasize the diversity within diversity @pgorski #YRDSBAssessment

@yrdsb Grateful for today: Reaching and teaching underserved and underperforming Ss w ⁦@pgorski⁩ (channeling my inner ⁦@VirtualGiff⁩) #YRDSBAssessment

How is your equity work supporting the re-distribution of access and opportunity? Awesome question from Paul Gorski. #YRDSBassessment

"Equity is about redistributing access to opportunity - what are shifts in policy practice and curriculum that we need to do to make it equitable? How are these opportunities being distributed for equal access?" @pgorski #YRDSBAssessment

Grappling with this statement “Celebrating diversity isn’t about equity and justice” by @pgorski We need to rethink how we identify the voices and experiences of our marginalized Ss in schools; instead of repeating the “gentle diversity work” #YRDSBAssessment

"Good intentions are not enough. There is an expiration date on good intentions. We need to question the intention" @pgorski #YRDSBAssessment

"There’s an ideological block. If we don’t take the time to understand why the gaps and disparities exist, then we’re not capable of coming up with strategies to fix those things." @pgorski #yrdsbassessment

Our biggest block isn’t a practical block, the biggest block is ideological. If we don’t understand why the gaps exist then we won’t be capable of coming up with the strategies. @pgorski #yrdsbassessment

Take away from @KarenFriedman this morning - "Equity is an instructional issue." #yrdsbassessment Excited for a full day of learning at the Assessment Summer Institute.
