Yesterday, we received a very interesting and useful book!: Micro:Bit for mad scientists by @simonmonk2 ! It is very well written, colourful and the @microbit_edu projects presented are cleverly chosen! For sure a book Avye will dig in to!

"Students don't need to be fixed. They need teachers who make data-informed instructional decisions to match best practices to students' needs," writes @cvjalexander @edutopia ow.ly/afaT50widMK #edchat #spedchat #inclusion #strengthsbased

Learning to See Students’ Deficits as Strengths

A teacher works to see the upsides in students’ learning difficulties—and uses them to help all students succeed.

The first "What's Going on this Graph?" for the school year focuses on hurricane path projections & the cone of uncertainty. Teachers, help your students better understand & critically interpret graphs! nytimes.com/2019/09/05/learn… @NYTimesLearning @ThisisStats

What’s Going On in This Graph? | Sept. 11, 2019 (Published 2019)

The National Hurricane Center prepares graphics like this one so the public can plan ahead for tropical storms and hurricanes. However, many people who see these maps read them wrong.
