Play is essential to social, emotional, and academic learning. It is important that we continue to build play into academic learning throughout the school day.

Dan Meyer (@ddmeyer's) TED talk changed how I looked at math education forever. I had been so comfortable with teaching the way I was taught and left with a whole new vision for what I should do.

We need to change how we (educators) use our DJ voices.
When a staff/student does something we like we should be using our Daytime DJ voice.
When our students do something incorrect, we should be using our Nighttime DJ voice.

Deb Meier once remarked, “If we deliberately tried to come up with a way to widen the achievement gap, we might just invent homework.”
In 2022, a qualitative study explored one mechanism by which the practice does in fact perpetuate inequities...

Final blog post of the 23_24 school year from the @Sinclair_ES STEM Lab! It did not all going according to plan, but 100mph winds & downed trees did not stop us from creating awesome projects! @SinclairPTO @HISDNorthDiv @CSTAGreaterHou

A3: Friends! What are your thoughts? Posting this to extend the #Satchat conversation beyond this chat. 😉

Spice up "dry" math topics with "Would you rather?" questions.
Unit conversions was my most boring lesson until I changed the questions to things like "Would you rather drive 100 ft/sec or 50 mph?" Students would make predictions and want to learn the math to find the answer.

Experience is the Mother of Creativity. Not the exact quote of DaVinci, but an appropriate rendition. One of the building blocks of @VIDASHARKS is to provide a wide array of experiences to provide the inputs necessary for creativity to flourish in youth. Neuroscience ain't no joke on how creativity works. And kids deserve for us to understand it.
