How did we become so anti-science? Children start off as mini-scientists who are curious about the world. Then, that wonder gets snuffed out. They grow up disconnected and fill that hole with junk. We are feeling the results now. Let’s teach science better. Let's do it!

5⃣ Crosscutting concepts can provide a common vocabulary for science and engineering. The SEPs, DCIs, and CCCs are the same in both, but the "how" and "why" they are used differs—to explain phenomena in science and to solve a problem or accomplish a goal in engineering.

As millions of people across the country take to the streets and raise their voices in response to the killing of George Floyd and the ongoing problem of unequal justice, I’ve heard many ask how we can sustain momentum to bring about real change.

Parents, you deserve a break – Michelle’s got storytime handled every Monday. She’s one of the best, I promise. (And I confess it makes me a little nostalgic.)
I can't wait to share the magic of storytelling with kids everywhere by reading a beloved children's book every Monday with @PBSKIDS and @Penguinrandom. I hope you’ll tune in today at 12PM ET as I read "The Gruffalo" on @PBSKIDS's YouTube channel and Facebook page!

I have proclaimed a statewide moment of prayer and reflection at noon on Sunday, April 5, so that Marylanders can join together in honor of those we have lost, those who are sick, and the doctors, nurses, clinicians, health care workers, and first responders on the front lines.
