Why did Zoom shut down nationally for about 2 hours, fifteen minutes before my virtual PD😩 with educators across the state? It’s funny how easily I defaulted to “teacher adjust, modify, and accept” mode in 60 seconds 🤣. We switched to Teams. #TheRightTools

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

Lately, I’ve found myself drawn to flowers—their beauty, their resilience, and the way each one blooms in its own time. It reminds me so much of students and the endless possibilities that live within them. What’s your favorite flower?

I created a study guide for an upcoming exam. I did something different. I gave time for students to go into their notes & book to check off where they could study deeper about concepts and where there was still questions.

Let’s talk. What factors do schools use to deem a teacher “successful”?

submitted 86 days ago • 0 comments

Good teachers don’t just build relationships. They build relationships and identify gaps in individual student’s learning to set them up for success. It is a this and that. #studentgrowth

I just used a teaching simulator tool with my graduate students and wow! So glad we can practice without bringing trauma to students when we mess up. I wish I could simulate everything before making a mistake.🫣 #TheRightTools #ProfessorLife

PSA: The first sentence in a paragraph is not ALWAYS the main idea. That’s a myth. Students with reading gaps don’t need formulas to comprehend. They need tools to encourage more thinking.

I teach a special ed. course w/ grad students & talked about inequities in professional development opportunities in under resourced schools. I am a firm believer that in addition to teaching concepts, it is our responsibility to reflect on how we as educators can best set students up for success.
