Jason Carter thanked former First Ladies Clinton, Bush, Obama, Trump, and First Lady Biden for their attendance at his grandmother’s tribute service and for the “remarkable sisterhood” they share.  He also thanked the “lovely” husbands that were there — drawing laughs.

It's not that boxed curriculum is all bad. In fact, it can support new teachers in understanding how to teach. The problem is when boxed curriculum is weaponized against teachers, asking them to use it with "fidelity" instead of responding to the needs of teachers.

I'm so disappointed when a history teacher asks, "How do you have time to bring in other voices when we have so much to do?" All voices belong in history. Women aren't a sidebar. Black people aren't a footnote. Indigenous, Latinx, Asian American, etc. stories matter.

@drdmaclee I've taught eighth grade for eleven years and I've heard so many parents say, "I try to be pretty hands-off" and "we want to let him figure it out" at parent-teacher conferences over and over. Struggle and hands-off are highly correlated!

Middle school is not the time for you to be more hands-off with your child. If anything, act like they are big, smelly toddlers. Developmentally, they are supposed to push boundaries. This is when you earn your parenting stripes.

@mremrich1 @davidwblight1 Have you seen the DBQuest from icivics? Really engaging. I used it as a launch point for students to redesign Lincoln Park - the statue around the park to tell the story of Reconstruction.

A bit of a weird question to ask, but for my fellow public facing teachers, who present and give workshops and keynotes and whatnot, Do your schools acknowledge within the community the work that you do outside of school?

Several suggested I should make a list so I can better see fellow educator’s posts. If you see this and are a fellow educator please drop your favorite emoji 🌈✨🍩🦇✌🏻❤️‍🔥 🪲🐿 below so I can start generating my list. TY. Also if I’m not already following you let me know.

@Mrneilhistory @francofonewannb I’m in a rabbit hole of randomness. How can I see more educators?

When I think about excellence in education, I think about Whitney Aragaki @sayuri_neko and the wisdom she shares about the importance of feeling connected not just to the curriculum but to the places/communities we inhabit. #AANHPIHeritageMonth

Whitney Aragaki, @CCSSO’s 2022 Hawaii Teacher of the Year, shares why it’s important that students see their cultures, their communities, and themselves in their learning. #AANHPIMonth #AANHPI
