Excited to present at #ncte24 - on Friday at 11:00 with Shana Frazin and my wife Desi Waters about bringing kids' out of school literacy lives to the forefront! It will be FUN! Room 104A. Cannot wait. And on Sat & Sun too w/ other great teams!

What’s coming is chaos, confusion, and attacks on every issue you care about all at once. That’s the strategy — mass mayhem and distraction. Don’t let it work. Define your sphere of influence: where you can have an impact, work on that, strengthen/build relationships.

If you are in line before the polls close, stay in line. It is your right to make your voice heard. If you have any trouble casting your ballot, call our Voter Assistance Hotline: 833-336-8683.

good morning

We all face moments when things feel overwhelming, and that’s okay. Remember, you are not alone.

It took several days to count every ballot in 2020, and it’s very likely we won’t know the outcome tonight either. So please keep a few things in mind as you make your voice heard today: – Thousands of election workers around the country are working hard today. Respect them. Thank them.  – Don’t share things before checking your sources.  – Let the process run its course. It takes time to count every ballot.

@tenilleshade @MossflowerRWP I love that you already have made this chart better!!!!

Thank you @kw625 for helping teachers spy 🕵️ on themselves as readers. We may not be aware of our own screen 📺 reading behaviors, so guiding children can feel challenging. What’s transferable? @MossflowerRWP

Ahhhhhh! The most awesome person has another book coming out! Pre-ordering! So excited. Teachers, don’t miss this one!

Welp @WIRED laid me off alongside a bunch of other talented people, and on the way out the door I want to appreciate some stories that I was proud to write while reporting on how AI can harm people, accelerate inequality, violate human rights, and threaten society. A thread 🧵:

You will be visited by ghosts on Christmas Eve: the Ghost of Christmas Past, the Ghost of Christmas Present, the Ghost of Christmas Future, the Ghosts of Christmas Pluperfect, Future Perfect, and Imperative. It’s gonna be a long night

Students used metaphor cards as a tool to frame their book club discussions about their narrative nonfiction novels today. #tcrwp @kw625 @ShanaFrazin @WaldonMS @LkOrionSchools
