Background knowledge is one of the most important factors in a student's ability to comprehend. The more you know about a topic, the easier the text is to read, understand, and remember. #ELSky #EduSky

Love the WordWall platform for its accessibility, allowing students to practice and learn anytime, anywhere. This flexibility is especially useful for multilingual learners who may need additional practice outside of the classroom. #ELSky wordwall.net/play/85943/9...

When you disable “connected experiences” in Office, students lose access to valuable supports. AI has been integrated into the way we learn and work for longer than many people realize! #EduSkyAI

What does equity really mean for MLs? MLs "cannot benefit from an unsupported curriculum, and if 'language support' means a remedial curriculum or simplified, inauthentic language, we've set up students for long-term failure..." ascd.org/el/articles/... #ELSky

Every child that reaches for a book should be met with “windows AND mirrors.” If readers don’t find themselves and their lived experiences in the books they read, they may find it difficult to connect with reading and to forge a love for reading. #EduSky
