Trying soming w/essays. Half the grade=Ss content. Half=Ss peer reviews of two other essays. (I'm sure I stole this idea from one of y'all on #EduSky.) They took the process seriously when they realized I was going to hold them accountable. And I don't have to red ink their papers! Thanks, friends!

The #WWI trenches are gone. Replaced with my setup for finals. Fun fact ...finals and break are the end of next week, but who is counting. (Me?) Happy Friday, friends! #EduSky

I have been teaching research, outlining, and essay writing for the past couple weeks. This is first time some of my 12 year old Ss have had to outline and it is like science fiction to some. We talk about outlining as a time saver. Otherwise they look like this GIF...

Can't believe I've never read this. Adding to my TBR. #EduSky #BookSky
Next year my publisher will be issuing a new printing of ‘The Lost Soul of the American Presidency’ that includes a new preface written after the recent presidential election. Needless to say, things have gotten worse.

My Ss are studying the #ElectoralCollege. They conducted a Structured Academic Controversy, created political cartoons, & are writing an essay supporting/altering/abolishing it. I told them, "You probably know more about the EC than most adults." Its sad, but I'm not wrong. #EduSky #middleschool

What they both said.
It’s called reflective patriotism. A true patriot looks at their country, seeks the work to be done, rolls up their sleeves and gets to work. Only the “summer soldier and sunshine patriot” insist on seeing a nation where there is no work to be done. I hope to always work towards “more perfect.”
"I love America more than any other country in the world and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually"

~ James Baldwin, who passed 37 years ago today, and whose voice is needed now more than ever

One of my takeaways from #FreedomTrail @ncssnetwork.bsky.social #NCSS2024...

Look up every once in a while to see which way the wind is blowing. You may be going against it, but that should never come as a surprise.

So... a beautiful morning for a walk. #NCSS2024 #FreedomTrail.

Walked #FreedomTrail this morning & thought about what @historyherway.bsky.social @historyfrog.bsky.social shared #NCSS2024 yesterday. Only about 7% of monuments have women depicted/mentioned. As I walked, I saw no monuments with actual women. Only personifications of womenly ideals. Hmm... #EduSky
