Casey Trees Workers Sam and Emma take pride in helping DC students connect with nature and their community. There is no Casey Trees without Casey Trees Workers! @WTUTeacher @DCLabor

Will I see you there? #scbwiNY25 #SCBWI

@TomJoudrey I've seen worse. Be kind and teach or else the student will hate writing forever.

undergrad writing has gotten so bad. look what one of my students turned in

@eat_dc sounds like you're doing it wrong. I've been many times and don't spend much time waiting. Go eary and skip ones w/ long lines. I ate amazing food and drank tasty bevs yesterday at Trinidad, DR, Gabon, Cameroon and more without waiting long. And lots of outdoor parties & markets

Does anyone do the embassy tours more than once? Waiting in line for an hour hoping for some decent snacks never seemed very enticing.

@Heatherjenkinsj @janaybrownwood Thanks for sharing this -- JaNay's work looks awesome and very relevant! Looking forward to reading them!

Yea to VA! @samwriteteach you might be interested in @janaybrownwood's book series about plants +gardening! Such an awesome series! Plus @janaybrownwood is very inspiring to those of us who are seeking to be published one day!

@awfulannouncing he didn't shut up the whole game about x s and o's. @CBS @paramountplus please ditch romo next year or we'll all going to watch it on nickelodeon.

THE KANSAS CITY CHIEFS WITH THE SUPER BOWL! (And Tony Romo does a lot of talking/yelling) 🏈📺🎙️ #SuperBowlLVIII

@LaneGillPxP he didn't shut up the whole game. i'm watching on nickelodeon next year

I never understood the Tony Romo hate but now I get it. As a play by play announcer, this is a pet peeve. Tony, a legendary moment just happened. Either let Jim continue to talk or let the nat sound and the visuals take over! Stop talking!

Black women have always faced a double standard and my heart goes out to Claudine Gay because I know how it feels to become part of a right wing propaganda campaign. Thank you, @AliVelshi, for always taking the time to say what needs to be said.

@BraddockElem @CaseyTrees @fcpsGet2Green @TreesforCities @fcpsnews @FCPSRegion6 @BE_eXSTREAM @HandsOnHarvests Excited to plant trees with you all!

A last minute phone call on Friday informed teachers that the Arkansas Department of Education will not recognize AP African American Studies for course credit by the state. School starts in 2 days. AP European History continues to be offered for full credit. arktimes.com/arkansas-blog/…

Check out my plant writing class with @redbuttegarden on July 10! We'll discuss plant intelligence & relationships and then stroll the gardens in the cooler evening hours and write :) My proceeds will be donated to @UteLandTrust .redbuttegarden.org/adult-educatio…

@BranwenOShea i'm trying it now for a rewrite---and it's hard.

Has anyone ever written a dual or multiple POV novel that uses both first and third person? As in, one MC is always in first and the other is always in third for *reasons*? And if so, did it work?

@AnotherRhiWrite It might "fail." Write it anyway. Process over product. Have fun with it!

NEWS RELEASE: On Sunday, May 14, an off-leash dog attacked a wild beaver in Rock Creek Park near Boulder Bridge. Due to the severity of its injuries, the beaver was euthanized. Help protect our resources and keep pets leashed at all times. nps.gov/rocr/learn/new…

Amazing school, kids, teachers, all of it!

When we teach the Three-Fifths Clause in the Constitution; when we teach about the Declaration denouncing the resistance of enslaved Africans and “merciless Indian Savages,” they say stop teaching CRT. They don’t want us *really* teaching the Constitution or the Declaration.

We’re so grateful for our friends at Casey Trees @CaseyTrees! They came out to our campus to plant over 30 trees with students, staff and families 🌲Our kids had a blast and learned a lot too! #BucknellStrong

Casey Trees came for our day of learning. Our rep taught students all about how trees grow! Students are excited to now plant trees all around our campus today! #BucknellStrong
