@TaraOakman @ReedAbelson Why isn’t the New York Times covering the struggle of 250,000 Municipal Retirees who are losing their good supplemental Medigap and being forced by Mayor Adams into an inferior Medicare (dis)Advantage plan?

@RDinnerstein @elizashapiro @BLoveSoulPower All children aren’t equally smart. If we treated every five year old like they should be able to do long multiplication, we would have a hell of a lot of kids who got nothing out of being there.

BREAKING: NYC to eliminate gifted + talented classes over the next 5 yrs, major change and likely BdB's last big decision as mayor. Kids now enrolled in gifted programs will stay in them, but there will be no more separate gifted classes for incoming kids nytimes.com/2021/10/08/nyr…

@perrymetzger @elizashapiro @BLoveSoulPower Is long division the only measure of being gifted? I wonder if Van Gogh could do long division?

@COScienceWriter @elizashapiro @BLoveSoulPower Everyone has some gift or talent. Everyone.

@SelenaCarrion Sadly so. The children will pay the price for this destructive misdirection .

Must we REALLY prioritize literacy assessments and “ catching up” right now?

@NancysEdNotes @jimmyrails1 @NYCMayor @DOEChancellor Teachers who won’t vax should think of how they’re harming the children.

@jimmyrails1 DISGRACEFUL!! So, teaching isn’t something anyone can do!!! For a change @NYCMayor & @DOEChancellor let’s think about how children are feeling after losing so much in the pandemic to now lose their teacher & the sub you send walks out on them. How valued do you think they feel??

Even our youngest students have lots of stories to tell, whether real or imagined. How can we create entry points for writing, so that all writers feel confident and motivated to share their stories? hubs.la/H0WB_SP0 @sharrismackay 🎨 📝

@mrmikeMTL Overeating and making bad food choices

What is a bad habit you kicked or wish to quit?

@Shelli_Rosen @NYCSchools You are vaccinated. You are masked. Children are masked. I don’t think your life is being devalued. Children are being valued.

🎸Rock on, METAL LORDS. 🎸 Jaeden Martell, Isis Hainsworth & Adrian Greensmith will star in D. B. Weiss’s comedy about two kids who start a heavy metal band—in a school where exactly two kids care about heavy metal. Directed by Peter Sollett, the film will play Netflix in 2021.

@RoArquette Bravo

@CherylTeaches @JulieKeat Thank you for writing this. It’s often forgotten.

Teacher friends: pls remember that public displays of achievement (books read, math timed tests passed, etc.) are only great for those who achieve it easily. And friendly competition doesn’t feel so friendly for kids for whom the task is tough. Someone always feels like a loser.

@LarryLeaven I can’t wait to hear all about it!

#saveourMedicare NYC Municipal Retirees: TAKE ACTION Contact Governor Hochul at (518) 402-2292 and/or kathyhochul.com/contact-us Tell Governor Hochul to rescind this unfair and unethical change to our healthcare!

@nhashem @wolfblitzer @donie @JoeBiden @nytimes @washingtonpost Very well said .

@wolfblitzer @donie @JoeBiden @nytimes @washingtonpost ... retired generals you have on your shows are now lobbyists or board members for defense contractors. I would appreciate if you would put their CURRENT roles on your chyrons. I don't think that is too much to ask from a news organization.

Remember - the criticism @JoeBiden is facing from Republicans & Democrats (and NATO allies) is not so much his decision to end America’s longest war; it’s the chaotic way the withdrawal has been implemented. Check out the front page headlines in the @nytimes and @washingtonpost
