Hey you! Find a copy of Beloved by Toni Morrison and read it along with @heymrsbond.com and I in February, one chapter a day—starting a week from today! #BelovedFebruary

(Reading in community feels like exactly the thing we need right now, right?)

As I’m consuming more in Substack,and less elsewhere, I decided to start creating and sharing as well. Hope to see you there! #EduSky

@tommullaney.bsky.social is my go to when I need the other perspective or when considering if I’m harming students with AI.

Do I use AI? Yep! Do my students use AI? They do. But I am trying to become increasingly aware of how I use AI and the risk and potential harm.
Remember "Resist" from Trump's first term?

How does promoting children's use of generative AI fit with resistance?

Of all the things a teacher could do in their classroom, which do you think Musk and Trump would warmly approve of?

Pondering of the day: @tommullaney.bsky.social with the manipulation of media happening and shutting down of public dissemination of research (ie: FDA, health orgs), any thoughts on how this will increase the bias and disinformation provided by AI and chatbots?

@wewillwrite.com has enhanced my writing lessons and engaged students in a way I wasn't able to before. I'm thrilled to explore Creating Challenges (their newest feature) next week and have founder Daniel Senn joining the conversation! Join us live next Wednesday. #edusky

Having fun at the #VSTE24 Tessellation’s table set up by the Education Committee. If you’re a VA educator who wants to get more involved with @vste.org, the Education Committee is a great place to start! www.tiktok.com/t/ZTYm17d74/
#VSTE24 is happening and the VSTE education committee had this interactive table to connect. Thinking of all the ways to use this idea to build classrooom community #edtech

#VSTE24 is almost here! I’m looking forward to the topics I’m presenting this year as they are part of my every day life in the classroom! Even more excited to get to collaborate with @katiefielding.com and @kristenebutler.bsky.social!

Got this gift just in time for #TechTshirtTuesday! Thanks @wewillwrite.bsky.social

I’ve focused a lot this year on how to assess student progress towards a standard & track that data for better conversations with Ss. Here is a current iteration of the work. Thanks @mrrablin.bsky.social for sharing your progressions which got me started on this idea. #iteachEnglish #EduSky

I am working on a presentation on how instructional technology can support the science of reading and high-quality instructional materials at the secondary level. Do any English teachers have resources gained from #NCTE or in their collections that may be helpful? #iteachEnglish #EduSky

A week without lesson planning means an opportunity to exercise other creative muscles.

How many times did I get asked “Is there a movie?” while reading Refugee? So you know I had to make this an option as a culminating project! Let the movie trailers using Canva start rolling in!🍿 @mrnunesteach.bsky.social

Good morning! Thanks to @marcusluther.bsky.social for the idea of collecting tidbits of student writing throughout the year. This just got added to my “Beautifully Said” bulletin board and is a nice reminder

LENGTHY REFLECTION WARNING: What I’m learning to accept is that more years teaching doesn’t always mean kids have an easier time tackling a difficult concept, but instead sometimes I have more tools and strategies to pull from.

Teacher Toxic Trait: Sometimes I “forget” to change the share settings on my lesson plans to see if anyone lets me know they cannot view them.

What’s your teacher toxic trait?

A4) Shoutout to educators like @katiefielding.com @mrskannekens.bsky.social @mrshowell24.bsky.social @farmerfaubs.bsky.social @nmzumpano.bsky.social @phausedu.com & so many others who I may never have met in person but who trusted my collaboration or joined in on one of my crazy ideas #thedcollab

A3) I seek partnership and collaboration. Although I have lots of experience under my belt—I still don’t always “nail” this teaching thing. I love sharing ideas, but I also love getting ideas and making changes to my craft based on the research and experience of others #theedcollab
