On this cold winter’s day, some wonton noodle soup seemed like the best idea, especially after shoveling outside before it all froze. The filling inside is pork and shrimp, with some chopped bamboo shoots for texture. The soup is a pork bone broth made in an Instant Pot. 🍜🍽️

My mantra is “no talking about education without educators.” Teachers are too often absent from the places where teaching is discussed. This has been evident in the public responses to Pres. Trump’s 1/29 EO: “Ending Radical Indoctrination in K-12 Schooling.”

"What our profession most definitely does not believe is that the primary purpose of history is to instill a single notion of 'patriotic education' in our youth about 'our incredible Nation,' as the order demands." Correct. Trump wants propaganda, not history. newrepublic.com/article/1912...

It is easy to feel powerless in the current moment, when political action seems too risky, too pointless, or both. But there are many things we can, and must, do if we want a better world than the one we’re caught up in now.

Social studies teachers: Are you teaching about the Trump administration's attempts to dismantle the federal bureaucracy? Might start with the following inquiry question: What could be the outcome of reducing the federal workforce? 🧵 #sschat #edusky www.npr.org/2025/02/03/n...
