This is so dangerous! Gov. Abbott and TEA Commissioner Morath have announced it is safe for students to go back to school in person this fall. "School districts will not be required to mandate students wear masks or test them for COVID-19 symptoms..." texastribune.org/2020/06/18/…

If you are preparing for school closures by figuring out how to assess students (quizzes and tests). STOP IT!!! Let’s focus on some creative standards aligned activities. Designed to truly engage students. Use this time to think outside the traditional boxed education.

Extending our inquiry into resources by making connections to natural resources & living things around us. What manmade resources DO worms eat? I wonder where their other questions will take us!? @bonniegotweet #inquirymindset #curiosity @Sallys_stories @AskiaLittle

Reminder. ♥️
You cannot call yourself a “culturally responsive” educator if your purpose is to raise test scores rather than to liberate young people’s spirits and ignite their intellectual curiosity.

Our 5th grade scientists were learning how to write a lab report today in our @ArgumentDriven lab! They loved it so much that they all asked me to print their final copy so they can bring them home and show their parents! #weareallscientists #ADI

If you're a 9th grade teacher saying, "This kid shouldn't be here. He can't even read," stop and think: School is the *best* place for that student to be! No place is better equipped to help that kid read than school. @terrancelgreen #RRISDWCS

According to John Hattie's work, not labeling students has an average effect size of 0.61. People ask, "So if we don't label our students, what do we call them?" "Have you tried their names?" Labels include deficits, myths, and assumptions. @terrancelgreen #RRISDWCS
