Bring it. I work in public education; I can be outraged and hopeful at the same time.

Some of y’all may have heard: I am thrilled to accept a position at two Elementary schools! More joy, more hugs, different flavors of complexity, and I tower over everyone at the site.

If President Trump can wrongly deport a Maryland father to a prison in El Salvador and then defy a 9-0 Supreme Court order to facilitate bringing him home, who’s next? This threatens the rights and freedoms of everyone in the United States.

Okay, I'm gonna say it. @peterliljedahl.bsky.social has a fantastic teaching structure that has transformed classrooms. And "Building Thinking Classrooms" isn't a snappy name for it. Here are some suggestions from ChatGPT: Think First Math Stand & Solve Math in Motion (taken) Brains On, Hands On

Final thought “Lamar is creating art at the intersection of Black men being the world’s scariest boogie men and the world’s most profitable commodity. And I think he’s accepted that’s where he is.” All quotes from The Youths™️

“Every system of injustice depends on the silence, paralysis, confusion, and cooperation of those seeks to eliminate and control.“ I am late to the game on this book, but excited to start.

“I can’t right now think of a better purpose in life than to be a teacher. To teach feels like you are a guardian of time itself, protecting the future happiness of the world via the minds that are yet to shape it.

Emotionally, it was surprisingly easy to delete 13 years of the bird-website after the lead guy's nonsense this week. I downloaded it first, here's a picture of my kid from that first few months of my bird-site account.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

I would like to lodge a formal complaint against the words “numerator” and “denominator.” If we wanted people to hate fractions more, we could not have picked better words.

“Equity without excellence is low expectations. Excellence without equity is exclusion.” Reminds me of “we want the best candidate for the job” or “the top students get the honors.” (This is at the #Equity Task Force for my district)

THIS is why I trust @dingleteach.bsky.social’s judgment. Just scrolling through my feed and she’ll drop some bars like AND I WILL NOT BE A SLAVE TO PERFECTION, and suddenly I’m inspired and galvanized. 💪🏻

After lunch, we’ll be discussing 3 ways that schools can be unfair to kids, what we can do about it, and how to do Equity work without burning out. Join us in Primrose D! #CMCmath

At this point, Jeremiah said “The double integration is pretty straightforward.” I’m a B I T out of my league here, but we’re doing math, so I’m happy. #CMCmath

I'm loving this quote, but there's nowhere in my #CMCmath session to put it, so I'll put it here: A reduction of injustice is not the same as freedom. —Ella Baker

Okay, let's figure out cross-posting. I've spent over a decade on the medium-formerly-known-as-Twitter, and some of that stuff I want to bring this way.

I'll tell you one thing, with public education in this country having a giant target on its back, no better time to have a classroom teacher step forward on the national stage
