Killing more innocent people to avenge the killing of innocent people is the stupidest thing humans do. And we do a lot of stupid things.
When the Venn diagram is made showing connections across content areas taught in most schools, it is the Arts where Maths, Science, Language Literacy, and Social Studies all overlap… the Arts are true “core” experiences from which meaning is made of the siloed “spokes”.
The many wonderful things that are considered ‘extra’ in our schools are often more fundamental to the development of young people than those things that are considered ‘core’. We need to educate the whole child, and that involves music and all of the performing arts.
Visual and performing arts grant us the chance to build critical thinking, project management, and literacy skills in truly meaningful ways — dance, art, and music aren’t just decoration or entertainment; they’re our common language
Music is NOT a waste of time. Music is NOT a waste of space. Music is NOT a waste of money. Music is NOT a waste of resources. Music IS the complete and utter opposite. Music IS the most holistic educative experience we can provide for young people. We need to provide it.
As someone who has taught reading intervention, I’m pretty quiet on the reading wars except to say that when you use the term “war” you will end up with casualties. You’ll dehumanize. You’ll create enemies in a way that prevents dialogue. Phonics matter. Blending matters.…

I love this!
He forgot puppies, apple pie, and “Mom”.
Don't forget to turn your bathroom scales back 15 pounds tonight at 1AM for Thanksgiving.
WOW. This video just DESTROYED the NRA and the Republican candidates they own. RT this to remind EVERY voter that now is our chance to get weapons of war off the streets.
"True professionals have the authority to make autonomous decisions about their practice, are trusted to do their work at a high level, and are collectively responsible for maintaining and raising that standard." @Teachers_Lead ascd.org/el/articles/le… #edchat
Don’t forget, Indigenous Peoples Day is Monday October 10, 2022. 🪶🪶

“There is no better time than now to change our practice for the betterment of those who we serve, whether that is students, colleagues, or other stakeholders.”
Ron DeSantis just removed 4 democratically elected school board members from office. This is the work of an autocrat. I’m terrified.
The competition compulsion: It seems there's no activity so engaging - from singing to coding, from math to oratory - that it can't be ruined by gratuitously setting kids against one another so that each participant must try to defeat all the others
