First Lady Jill Biden put a massive Valentine's display on the North Lawn.
"I just wanted some joy. With the pandemic, just everybody's feeling a little down. So, it's just a little joy. A little hope. That's all."

I have a message for all the little girls and boys out there who dream of growing up to be superheroes: Superheroes walk among us.
They’re teachers, doctors, scientists, vaccine researchers—and you can grow up to be like them too.

Interesting thoughts here about how to teach problematic texts -- with appropriate historical context and perhaps with paired texts that offer a different lens. #antiracist #education #historyteachers #englishteachers

"For kids with #anxiety, the 'can'ts fluctuate,” says @jessica_minahan , "When they're calm they can. When they're anxious they can't. And that's very deceiving." @Kschwart ow.ly/ZR6C50vDY7B #edchat #teaching #parenting

FINALLY finished this @ProjectLITComm Map! INSANE to think that in only 3 short years #ProjectLITBookClub went from @jarredamato’s classroom in Nashville, TN, to becoming a NATIONAL LITERACY MOVEMENT in over 800 schools and libraries in 48 states! #ProjectLITChat

This week's #ReadingTipTuesday:
Have your child examine the cover of a book before starting it. Ask questions such as: "What might the book be about?" Making predictions and building connections between stories will help your child better comprehend what they read.

A1 This article includes some great, practical tips on celebrating the dignity of our #LGBT 🏳️🌈 Ss & families. I always tell my fellow educators, supporting our LGBT community isn't about politics, it's about safety & that is our #1 job!

Make it a priority to greet every student every day. Make eye contact. Give high fives and fist bumps. Call students by name. Your efforts to connect and build relationships will lead to better engagement and better learning. #edchat #FutureDriven

Listening to a young man who was locked up from 16-23 talking about how he got his GED and wants to go to college but FAFSA is so complicated as he needs work and considering quitting @saragoldrickrab says “The system wins the day you give up.” #BIF2018

Food insecurity is the difference between i eat ramen noodles because i spent my money on beer and I only have money to afford Ramen noodles. One results in psychological trauma and lower grades. #bif2018 #realcollege
