Medicaid is not for sale.
NASA is not for sale.
The Post Office is not for sale.
America is not for sale.

We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

I wonder what Microsoft would do if people left Office behind enmasse due to the creepy, annoying AI copilot feature, and started using LibreOffice for free instead. 🤔

As we move into the holidays, please remember: READING FOR PLEASURE has the biggest impact of any factor on children's life chances. So never stop sharing books with kids, talking about books, making books central to everything you do. Never stop changing their lives! #literacy #EduSky #books

I’ve been hearing that going for a walk immediately after eating can help to stabilise your blood sugar. But what about a quick game of playground tag?

These persimmons look so shiny and fresh! But what’s the best way to eat them? Treat them like a fresh tomato? 🍅

Help me settle a rigorous debate with a 14 year old who is somehow as headstrong as his mother:

Do you carefully re-close the windows the windows on your advent calendar to prolong the ‘hunt’ element, or not?

Reading is the key! 🗝️
CHOICE is key to becoming a reader. When kids are given a wide range of books to choose from, and are allowed to choose freely - THEY READ! I don’t believe in “reluctant readers” - just readers who haven’t yet found the right books for them. So it’s our job to help them find those books! #literacy

Love this idea! What a fantastic way for educators to use their own PD time effectively, while experiencing the the fun and focus of choice board learning. What do you think @jennysfen.bsky.social?

Gr3 designed & created board games to share what they’ve learned about the importance of biodiversity in ecosystems. They came to visit Gr2 and we all had a great time playing and learning together.
