I want to say that I often do learn from student writing, but that is still not why I assign it. Writing is a method of thinking that works differently than pondering something in your head or even than talking it out with knowledgeable people. You only get skilled at it by doing it a lot.

I discovered my old vaccination records recently and saw that I got an MMR when I was 18. Since I was originally vaccinated for measles in the 70s, I'm glad I got the extra boost--I had been meaning to follow up with my doc about it, but now I'm reassured. #vaccinate

Today marks the 250th anniversary of the battles of Lexington and Concord, which began the American Revolution. Our nation was founded on resistance to arbitrary authority and monarchical power. We built a democracy in the face of impossible odds. We must continue to protect it.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

This fake Donald Trump tweet is once again being widely shared following the president's imposition of global tariffs and the markets plunging in the aftermath. Trump never posted this. It's fake.

The permanent Daylight Saving Time trial in 1974 was a deadly mistake. This cartoon, published on October 25, 1974, expresses relief seeing morning sunlight before 8am when the country went back to Standard Time.
