Attending the @mgcollaborative conference today, and just listened to Lara White describe how she engages her students in math class. I love learning from amazing teachers who model innovative practices and I am leaving the session with several ideas to apply in my own classroom!

“I learned that my students have a better understanding of these problems than they are given credit for. They are ready to talk about these issues—if we just get out of the way.” Kids want to discuss critical topics, no matter what adults in power say.

"There are all kinds of jobs where those interpersonal skills are important. And because they don’t show up on a standardized test we act like they don’t have value."

Current ”memory laws” that censor and censure critical history lessons threaten to keep many students ”from seeing history for what it was and becoming the citizens that they might be.” History tells us the comfort of some isn't worth that cost to all. nytimes.com/2021/06/29/magaz…

When you have students who don’t like school, remember they have parents who may not have liked school. So reach out early, often, & positively to make school an inviting place to collaborate rather than them reliving the unpleasantness of their own experiences.
