๐ค Teaching is one of the most effective ways to learn.
So why do we spend so much time teaching at students instead of creating space for them to teach each other?
The jigsaw strategy paired with station rotation addresses this. Students develop real expertise on one section of content, then teach it to peers who've been doing the same with something else.

Keeping up with ed tech has always been hard, but with AI and everything coming out, itโs probably harder than ever. Thatโs why I love sharing this resource so much!
Almost 300 tech and instructional coaches shared their "One Best Thing" right now, and here are the results:

There are so many incredible ideas here that youโll have plenty to explore, learn from, and use to help you level up and try something new ๐
A huge thank you again to every coach who contributed during National Coach Camp ๐
Bookmark it, share it whenever youโd like. I canโt imagine anyone who wonโt find this helpful!

A simple message with big meaning: "I am somebody." We are grateful to Rev. Jesse Jackson for helping teach generations of children to believe in themselves and in one another. Thank you for being part of our neighborhood. ๐๐

Michelle and I were deeply saddened to hear about the passing of a true giant, the Reverend Jesse Jackson. We will always be grateful for Jesse's lifetime of service, and the friendship our families share. We stood on his shoulders. We send our deepest condolences to the Jackson family and everyone in Chicago and beyond who knew and loved him.

Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. Itโs about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future. As we mark 100 years of celebrating Black history, letโs honor the sacrifices of the leaders who came before us, and recommit ourselves to continuing their work.
