Adding you right now!
Jonathan Harris and his Critical Race Theory painting about the white washing of Black history.
I just added you! 😊
Fantastic podcast, touching on the learning something that we don't think we can learn: taking the emotion out; repeating with clear input and zero judgment; slowly moving on until you get through the steps. (the role of behaviorism) open.spotify.com/episode/2BBK... #edusky
If you are in Chicago, try Rica Arepa in Lakeview! Support local Latino restaurants as their business has slowed down due to fears of ICE. Trump wants to revoke TPS for Venezuelans, but immigrants make our city a better place🇻🇪🇲🇽🇬🇹
Ooooh, excited to start this class on Motivation in the Classroom. Here is one of our books: hoping it is as informative as it sounds!
Perfect! I just added you too!
I usyally have to adapt/ modify for my ELLs, but they love reading from lessons I have found from the @smithsonian @zinnedproject.bsky.social Library of Congress, even PBS! Sometimes my sts have heard a name in passing, but didn't know why they were famous etc- this is all background knowledge!
Our reading showcases stories about immigrants and people overcoming challenges. For writing, Iaim. To amplify my students' voices and give them a platform to tell their stories and dreams and ideas, and create opportunities for writing that are relevant to their lives. #t2tchat #edusky
I teach EL Intermediate, and generally it is my sts' 2nd year in the US. Black History is US history, so we read stories throughout the year, but especially during February! So far we've read about Rihanna, Sam Barnes & the Golden 13, Mae Jemison, and the Scottsboro 9. #t2tchat #edusky
What breaks my heart this week? Former students, loving young moms, asking me to sign papers saying that I could take care of their baby and help them reunite if they get deported. 💔 I hate that this is real.
This was a fun, feel-good activity that didn't take a lot of effort, but made me smile: underground spirit week for teachers. Monochrome Monday, Socks/Slides Tues, Jersey Wed, Work from Home (fancy on top, casual bottoms) Thurs, & today was Everything But a Cup. 😊 www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2D2F3y6/
Heads up! The @aclu.org Immigrant Rights Project has an EXCELLENT online resource available in multiple languages to walk immigrants or advocates through various scenarios of encounters with immigration officials or police. It includes contact #s for local ACLU offices.

The Gross National Happiness Index from Bhutan includes psychological well-being, cultural diversity, ecological resilience, and education. It includes our EXPERIENCES, to measure the progress of a nation. So fascinating to not only gauge progress based on money.
