Got to see my “older” FDES kiddos today! All grown up @tweetwps

Prepare to be dazzled. Young children are the world’s most efficient language learners - and easily master the challenge of bilingualism in supportive settings. Check out little Sam here as he switches back and forth seamlessly between Polish (the native language of his mother) and English (his father). Research suggests that bilingual/multilingual infants readily distinguish between the languages to which they are exposed, without any evidence of confusion. They are adept at recognizing the unique rhythms associated with each language - and can even visually discriminate between the unique (and often subtle) facial movements associated with different languages. Contrast this with the challenge of language learning as adults. How many of us took a foreign language in high school or college but cannot even begin to claim Sam’s level of fluency? 🎥 babysamanddad TT

Wow this is an impressive line of questioning from Rep. Neguse

Aha Moment! We use small mirrors at the reading table to look at how we form sounds. What if we use them for self-affirmations? 2 minutes for self-affirmations, once or twice a week, at the table with your acknowledgment of their reflection…Wow 💥 thanks Mr. Marrero!

@NoLieWithBTC And her PPE relief of $183,00+ loan .. “I’ve actually lost money”. Please! We all have! I have too have lots of soup and leftovers. I can send you recipes.

Marjorie Taylor Greene just complained that her taxpayer-funded salary is too low, saying making $174,000 as a member of Congress has made her life “miserable.” She added that she’s “lost money” with her six-figure government salary. newsweek.com/marjorie-taylo…

Fierce- adjective -full of force; powerful; vigorous; effective: a forceful plea for peace.-acting or driven with force. YES YES YES! thank you @fdes_pe @FDESPandas We raised a “fierce” daughter and gained a “fierce” daughter-in-law. We have a “fierce” granddaughter on the way!

Today was the perfect time to celebrate . 💯 days of school!!! Kids participating in the 100 challenge! Doing math and writing in Spanish! @FDESPandas @ParticipateLrng #unitingourworld

Which instructional practices could teachers start implementing in their classroom right now to improve the reading outcomes for novice readers? Here are some things you can do today:

@jvanheukelum @tweetwps I have family that attended Frederick Douglass and worked at Frederick Douglass.#honorthepastgrowthefuture

@PeteButtigieg I would encourage you, Elizabeth Cheney and @RepJeffries to have breakfast and chat. Americans need a ticket that speaks truth over political correctness and commits to honesty and accountability. A leadership that values the will and determination of ALL Americans

@RonFilipkowski Judging women…. Not a women… likes women… how old?

Matt Gaetz says he told Trump that he has to do something to convince women who don’t like him as a person to vote for him anyway, and one way to do that is to choose Sarah Huckabee Sanders or Kristi Noem as his running mate.

@RonFilipkowski I can’t believe we are comparing places to stir “highly secured documents”. We have to Americans that are more trust worthy and ethical. Come on America

Update from the ‘Southern White House’

@KevinHarvick Thank you! No other words. #choking

@laurenboebert @seanhannity Who cares?

Round 2, coming up. I’ll be joining @SeanHannity at 7pm MT.

@RonFilipkowski You are a traitor!

Michael Flynn today gave his assessment of Ukraine: “Russia has achieved all of their objectives, and they’re now exposing .. bio labs that have been in there sponsored by the US. The guy that just showed up to speak to our Congress in a sweatsuit should’ve been thrown out.”

@VicksVapoRub Blast from the past. I packed up this Vicks Vaporizer model V150 in 2000 to move to our new house. I just opened it last night. It works great! The night light even still works!

@MichelleObama I taken care of my dad father and uncle. They passed. I am now taking care of a disabled family member. I have endered family and community judgement. I am determined to do the best I can for my family. I can do this. My family & my peace, my hobby will come.

What’s something that you’ve picked up as a hobby or practice that has helped you during these last few years? Reply with your thoughts or tag me in your post using #TheLightWeCarry.

Every time I tell people how much I love to knit, they seem so surprised! But it truly has become one of my most meaningful (and fun) pastimes. For me, knitting is a release. It lets my hands lead the way as my mind trails behind. #TheLightWeCarry

Herschel Walker shares his thoughts on how to stop school shootings.

@JGinfo Pay it forward… live in the moment without it being about you. I knew I was drawn to you as a driver way back in 1994 and I have never regretted watching you grow and get back!

@Capitals Hockey❤️

@NASCARONFOX The truth about throwing it in there!

WHAT JUST HAPPENED? Ross Chastain SENDS IT to advance to the Championship 4. Woooooow.
