Asking teachers to remember their "why" can be viewed as blaming teachers for losing their passion for teaching instead of working on improving the conditions that actually burn them out.

Students who have IEPs aren’t “special education students.” They are general education students who receive special education supports. All students can benefit from the expertise of special educators through collaborative universal design for learning. #EdChat #udl #udlchat

If we employed a 4.0 GPA grading system but based it on our 100 point numeric system, students who did not submit assignments would be given a negative six. Our 100 point scale is archaic. Recording a zero on a 100 point scale for a missed assignment makes no educational sense.

What if instead of giving a standardized test in student homes during remote learning and a pandemic we collected data on emotional health of students, teachers and acted on that? What is the most critical data point right now? Emotional health impacts academic leaning. Big time.

I think being 'hard' on a student is telling them they are capable of relentless excellence and I'll accept nothing less. You think being 'hard' on a student is giving them a zero on a late assignment to teach them a life lesson. We are not the same.

It’s about control. That’s all. But consider for a moment the child who has no where to work except the room they share with 5 siblings. The child who lives with a hoarder. The child who lives in extreme poverty. The list can go on and on.

If they couldn't keep the President of the USA from getting it, how do you expect an underfunded public school to protect their students and staff? #HonestQuestion

Today’s Adventure in Teacher Leadership: the reason we have teachers simultaneously trying to teach children live and distance learners at home is because no one asked teachers if they thought that would work. Do surgeons conduct office appointments while doing surgeries??? – at Burbank, CA
