@areejmws: Much of collaborative learning literature focuses on "on-topic" moments to "measure" participation and learning. When "off topic" moments (or according to this logic, non-participation) carry a lot of learning, joy, and empathy between learners and teachers.

@ProfJLO: Humanizing classrooms make space for kids to be kids. Find out why letting students go off-task while working and learning together can be a good thing! #humanizingmathematics #humanizeeducation

@ItsDrMordecai: Good morning, educators! I’m currently writing a book chapter slated for release in 2021 that stresses the importance for educators to realize the ethical responsibility we have in creating equitably designed learning communities. Educational access alone is insufficient.

@JMarshall_Chi: Today in remote learning world:

Tchr ends class mtg, Invites any ?s to stay on.

My 1st grader asks to stay on as people are exiting because he wants to say something to her.

“Ms X, I have 2 moms....so sometimes you can say mom & dad but sometimes you can say mommy and mama”

I am grateful for a teacher who left open space and made my son feel comfortable enough to offer that.

I am grateful to my son who wants his family to be visible and represented in class and advocates for that.

@Clare_Brock: Best extra credit assignment ever: For extra credit you may submit some kind of creative expression of the most interesting, important, or relevant information that you learned in this class. Previous students have submitted cartoons they created, ticktocks, and poems.

Every semester I get really cool, creative, interesting, fun submissions. And these assignments are so much more enjoyable to grade!

@django_paris: Think of your syllabus as an act of resistance; something to be posted in the streets, handed out at rallies, exclaiming: “We are here, we love ourselves, we understand what you have done, and we are building the world we need, one lesson, one project, one classroom at a time…”

@talk__climate: We have a new info graphic! Do’s and Don’ts tips to Talk Climate with the young people in your life.

Do #TalkClimate. Don’t be silent.

And here’s the pdf https://bit.ly/3ev5xuB with hyperlinks to articles, @Raffi_RC music, & other resources to further illustrate each do/don’t.

@3DplanJeanane: Created this activity to go with this PE (3-LS4-1: Analyze and interpret data from fossils to provide evidence of the organisms and the environments in which they lived long ago) We took butterfly phenomena to another level! Much more fun than butterfly life cycle activities :)

@Jess5th: The faces that greet our students from our bookshelves can be as powerful as the ones that greet them at the door.

@STEMTeachTools: Science teachers may hesitate to spend time on community building. But the learning gains that come from establishing an equitable community more than compensate for the time spent doing so. #NGSS #SciEd

@UMichEducation: June is Pride Month. Looking for literature resources that celebrate LGBTQ+ stories?

Consider this list by all Black authors: http://bit.ly/3e3KduR

@WhittleScience: First attempt at SPECIFIC & ACTIONABLE feedback. Green slips are things they noticed in other models that might improve their own model. Blue slips are to be constructive feedback for how their peers’ models could be improved.
