One week away from @researchED_US! I am so excited to learn and connect with an incredible crew.
I hope you can join me to discuss elevating teachers and the work that they do in my session:

@natwexler proposes changes in how we assess reading:
“A knowledge-building curriculum should come with assessments that test not only whether students have retained info that has been taught but whether they can do things like make inferences.” forbes.com/sites/nataliewexl…

We need your help @RichardsonISD ! Please use your voice to encourage our lawmakers to adequately fund public education! At a time of record inflation, we need additional dollars to properly resource our schools and pay our staff! p2a.co/mlOGicT

Please don’t share the video of the Damar Hamlin play. Share this because we are all Praying for him and his family.
Update: @SouthwestAir gate agent told me she could not help and that I needed to wait my turn to see if my 4 year old got off standby.
Not cool @SouthwestAir. You made my 4 year old stand by when you overbooked. Interesting he was booked as a companion.

I just want to make a few things clear:
The Holocaust happened.
Hitler was a demonic figure.
And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides.
Silence is complicity.

Early intervention is essential, but if we have our tier 1 instruction based on the research we would have less kids needing intervention.

Powerful dialogue w/ @RichardsonISD Superintendent @IamBranum, a true dual language leader & advocate. Talk about high expectations & seeing the assets our kids bring. It’s been a great 2nd day of dual language learning walks @byno_kristin @CaroArmstrong24 @gvortiz #RISDBelieves
