This sounds exciting! 👇🏼 Really exciting, actually.

Andrew is the real deal. I’d strongly recommend time with him even if it were in the Arctic. But Santa Barbara? STRONGLY recommend anything he does. In my view, he’s a credit to our field and the kind of instructor we all wish for.

On the face of it, this is a funny mistake (no, not an oxymoron). But, when you're in the context (the walk between Jubilee Line & West Ham overground) you understand that within the unavoidable right-hand turn, one must keep left.

Cold calling, in my experience, is a low-cost/high-yield strategy that transforms class culture, creates a sense of accountability/speed/teamliness, can be done strategically to bolster discourse and inclusivity, and in no way needs to cause anxiety for students in struggle. 👍👇🏼

Happy 1-month(ish) 📚 birthday to Gram and Gran: fiction for kids that teaches media literacy—by educators, for educators (and parents, and most of all kids)! Think Encyclopedia Brown meets The Phantom Tollbooth, and don’t take my word for it. 👇🏼gramandgran.com

What an amazing response to this 🧵: more than 100 very short stories and still counting! I've consolidated what people suggested as of this a.m. and added links. Just scroll to the bottom of my resources page here: stevechiger.com/resources/ ...

I’ve encouraged a pre-mediation approach for tier 2 middle school readers (w/o major decoding issues) like the one described here, so very exciting to hear TS’s take!
