Excited to see the first copy of my new book--a labor of love that explores the big ideas that open literacy learning to all students. Thanks to all who helped make it happen.

Texas Republicans claim to be “pro-life,” yet allow defenseless children to die in the classroom and at the border. Their hypocrisy is stunning. Ted Cruz and his colleagues have failed our state.

Can’t wait to read this.

@driverminnie Everybody I know needs this message. Thank you for writing this for yourself but also for us.

I wrote a book. ( VERY strange seeing that written down) it’s a collection of stories about how life not working out is usually - life working out. It is available for pre-order harpercollins.com/products/manag… and is out on May 3rd.

Tomorrow’s Bell Ringer brings together @poet52 (Jimmy Santiago Baca) and @gretchbernabei (Gretchen Bernabei) together. Excited to see what seniors in #Room407 do with Poetic Text Structures.

Sitting at my kitchen table with coffee in my cup, I see this tweet and feel inspired.

@mguhlin Happy to share this news: tcea.org/learn/courses/… #TCEA

Nefarious. That’s our Governor.

BREAKING: Governor Greg Abbott is hit with a HUGE lawsuit from parents of disabled Texan kids over his ban on school mask mandates, who accuse him of violating discrimination laws by making it too dangerous for disabled students to return to school. RT IF YOU SUPPORT THEIR SUIT!

@KateMessner @AlexandraBye This is wonderful to glimpse! Thank you for sharing your process.

When it came time for illustrator @alexandrabye to begin her work, I sent along some photographs that Dr. Fauci’s office had shared as references, showing what he looked like at different ages and what his family members looked like.

Now that our Dr. Fauci picture book biography is officially out, I want to share some behind-the-scenes stories about how this book came to be. Writing a kids' book about a current public figure is a fascinating process - and a bit of a whirlwind. (thread)

Thank you teachers @FlatonioISD for a wonderful day of learning!

@GodDanC @DrMandyStewart @GenovaHollyAnn @CorwinPress What photo?

@DrMandyStewart @GenovaHollyAnn @CorwinPress @gretchbernabei Did you allow Answers in Genesis the right to use that photo to sell their product?

A celebration of teaching multilingual adolescents in the ELA classroom! New book with award-winning teacher @GenovaHollyAnn from @CorwinPress including a beautiful forward by @gretchbernabei! us.corwin.com/en-us/nam/but-… Check it out, y’all!

@dofastingapp Tried it and can't unsubscribe. What a scam!

@KrisBCanadian @BetoORourke They answer their phones when it rings.

@BetoORourke How do they do this if they have no power, no internet and phone may be internet based? or battery may be dead?

For those without heat in Texas, there are warming shelters throughout the state. See map at link below or call 211 for assistance. If you have a medical device that requires power, call 911. Texas twitter, please add additional resources to this thread. tdem.texas.gov/warming-center…

@PierreDelecto5 @BetoORourke @Resist2k18 @jack He and his volunteers are making phone calls to elderly. I just watched my mom get such a phone call. Thank you, Beto. Way to harness energy in service to Texas citizens.

@BetoORourke @Resist2k18 yeah. expect a bunch of seniors freezing with no power to get on twitter accounts they don't have and ask for help. That was back when @jack envisioned a text-based notification/update system. It's all politics now--thanks for your concern though.

Having to do TELPAS writing online for zoom kids, I've fallen in love with the kernel essay all over again! Thanks @gretchbernabei #kernelessay #weareike #rootedike

@TylerHendrick @ladyogrady @karolcummins And continue to enjoy subsidies furnished by the people they hate.

@ladyogrady @karolcummins My brother had a good answer to this question. He said they want to live in their small mostly white towns and not have anything change, ever.

Absolute mic drop. I’d love to hear someone answer this question.

@kt_kevinthomas @ladyogrady @JohnOSullivan36 Conservatives seek and get as many abortions as liberals. That’s a false belief.

@GoodCitizenGa1 @ladyogrady That’s why they abused it so while storming the Capitol.
