I went to two rallies today because communities are close & times were staggered. So much violent horn-honking made my watch give a noise alert alarm. 🤣 All ages. All genders. All celebrating giving LOUD voice to democracy. Thrilling.

Several things. 1. I'm probably never going back to X because, well, Elon. 2. We have learned to be less civil & actual conversation, even in person, is increasingly difficult. 3. It's hard to be civil when our feeds are filled with lies, misrepresentations, outrage & outraged ppl. ⬇️

Quite frankly, this doesn't surprise me. There is a lot of pressure put on the 4-day school week & often for the wrong reasons. Absenteeism can increase bc parents struggle to get their kids to school for a longer school day &/or have no child care for the "off" day. If stamina is already an 1/

Today must be math day somehow. When Ss begin to understand the relationship between numbers as well as the fundamentals of addition & subtraction, they may struggle less later. www.edweek.org/teaching-lea...

We've all seen so many articles about chronic absenteeism. When leaders ask families why their kids aren't in school, it's more possible to find solutions. ". . .be very wary of the unverified assumptions about what's going on with our families." Engagement & review can lead to policy changes ⬇️

The article may be subscriber-only so my fave fun stats: 66% of people around the world use AI regularly; 78% of orgs use AI; 46% of us trust AI; 35% of parents discuss AI with kids. It's the energy/environmental footprint we don't think about. The equivalent of power usage in the UK ⬇️

I think it was Orson Scott Card's book Ender's Game & following that I first learned about hegemony. Many of the books clanged then & have not aged at all well. Even so, I noted the "coercion and consent" elements. Some interesting insights here. theconversation.com/are-hegemoni...
