The new way of teaching math is not an either/or situation, but rather a balance of understanding mathematical concepts. Here's what parents should know. nytv.to/P7N7L

Today, we celebrate the North Carolinians who keep our businesses running, make our communities healthier and drive our state forward. Let’s show our workers how much we value them this Labor Day by continuing to wear our masks and follow the 3 W's to protect them from COVID-19.

On behalf of Black boys in grades K-3: Teach me how to read & write well. Use rich vocabulary. Read great fiction & nonfiction. Enrich my language. Let me write. Give me explicit spelling instruction. Don't worry about my energy. I hear you. I want a great experience. Please!

@GCSchoolsNC teachers: Humanizing Math-"This approach starts w/educators moving away from a deficit-based approach to teaching–which focuses on what students don’t know–to one that emphasizes students’ current knowledge, strengths & cultural identities." news.gsu.edu/2020/08/28/huma…

I must thank the fabulous @GCSchoolsNC master teachers who worked all summer to develop & record 750 lessons allowing schools three weeks of PD, P/T conferences, & student orientations. Here’s @WileyElemGSO 2nd-grade teacher, Mr. Corbin. #RealMenTeach app.frame.io/reviews/37d0a03…

So, I got some thoughts on this. I don’t believe in artificially elevating folks for doing basic things and know ppl talk a lot abt white tears, BUT this is one of the most genuine moments of desperate emotion I’ve seen from a white person. The urgency here is the right energy
This is one of the most extraordinary moments in the history of College GameDay

If I were ever abducted by aliens, the first thing I’d ask is whether they came from a planet where fellow aliens also deny science.

On CNN @arneduncan just stated GCSNC is leading remote learning in US, noting local superintendents decisions are the reason. @scontrerasGCS prioritized 3 wks of recorded lessons so teachers can connect with students, start building relationships & focus on SEL. @HunterElemGSO

Ever notice how enthusiastic your dog can be? In life expectancy, a single day for humans corresponds to a week for dogs. Maybe they know this. And maybe that's why they make every day count.
