I assume they can do more than even they know. The challenges are my lack of highly proficient bilingualism, time to build differentiated and engaging curricula that meets my expectations, and external forces.

Paraphrasing, but essentially learning that it is “indisputably accepted by research that” it will take students 4 to 7 years to acquire the “conversational language” necessary to then learn “academic language” and I am feeling a little overwhelmed… but the not defeated.

I had to fact check this and, yeah, she tweeted that.
They want to eliminate all of us.
But I knew that’s what they meant in 2016, 2020, and 2024.

Not that it probably matters, but I do love how none of Biden’s or Obama’s kids tried to sell me a cell phone plan.

Finished The Future of Learning Summit 2025 with an inspiring presentation about eSports in schools. It further affirmed what I’ve known to be true since I was in highschool — video games are as important to study as Shakespeare. I said it. #FOLS #EDFARM #EDTECH #ZELDA #CLAIROBSCUR

☎️ Daily Action, Friday, June 6th ☎️ ☎️ Call Your Senators [MOC contact info] - Defend Medicare and Medicaid cuts in the “One Big Beautiful Bill” Act; additional information (updated 6/4!) from 5calls here: https://5calls.org/.../medicaid-cuts-budget-reconciliation/ MOC Contact Info: https://docs.google.com/.../1He3zd8rNqyB5nSX.../mobilebasic 1️⃣"Hello, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP]. I’m calling to urge [REP/SEN NAME] to oppose H.R. 1, the House budget reconciliation bill. This bill will cause millions of people on Medicaid to lose access to health care while making Medicaid more expensive and complex to administer. I am also deeply concerned about the CBO analysis showing that paying for wealthy people's tax cuts would lead to $500 billion in cuts to Medicare. This legislation will cut off millions of people from needed health care and will destroy lives and local economies, all while increasing the deficit by trillions. ☎️ Call Your House Rep [MOC contact info] The House will see this bill again after the Senate makes its changes. We need to continue to press our concerns. 2️⃣"Hello, my name is (NAME) and I'm a constituent from (CITY, ZIP). As you are aware, many people are quite concerned about HR1 and the damage which will be done by the bill as it is written. After the Senate makes its changes, it will return to the House and you must ensure that Medicaid and Medicare are protected. There is no need to hurt Alabamians who rely on these programs simply to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy. Please ensure that you do your job for your constituents and protect these programs. PLEASE COMMENT AFTER CALLS The time is NOW to speak out to Protect Medicaid! Save Medicare Healthcare is a human right Robin Hoodlum Robs from the 99% to give to the 1%

Alabama is the 5th poorest state in the Nation. Another source say 6th for children and 8th for adults. One thing’s for sure, we are a poor population.

Recently, I had to do some professional writing and editing out “divisive DEI language,” and I couldn’t stop thinking about this Emma Frost quote (from Iron Man) the whole time. Code switching is exhausting.

"Good luck to the Great people of Canada. Elect the man who has the strength and wisdom to cut your taxes in half, increase your military power, for free, to the highest level in the World, have your Car, Steel, Aluminum, Lumber, Energy, and all other businesses, QUADRUPLE in size, WITH ZERO TARIFFS OR TAXES, if Canada becomes the cherished 51st. State of the United States of America. No more artificially drawn line from many years ago. Look how beautiful this land mass would be. Free access with NO BORDER. ALL POSITIVES WITH NO NEGATIVES. IT WAS MEANT TO BE! America can no longer subsidize Canada with the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars a year that we have been spending in the past. It makes no sense unless Canada is a State!"
