Check out my classroom on DonorsChoose! I'd love your help to bring my project to life: donorschoo.se/e/dVM27TUzB. Claudia Bertolone-Smith (CSU Chico) and I are working with the staff at my school, STMS, to support kids during COVID with ‘Tools Not Rules’. Can you help? 😊

Here is an interview I did with Melissa from Lift Literature, a nonprofit trying to help us raise money for books at STMS. Such an important cause, one that is close to my heart. youtube.com/watch?v=JDPd6C…

I am a teacher looking for a robust source for audiobooks. Why isn’t #Amazon’s #Audible in the schools? They don’t support schools. Why not? I would write grants to cover the costs, but they will not create the product. We have no options and students are suffering.

A3: In an ideal class, you’d hear Ss enthusiastically talking about what they’re learning (perhaps designing/creating together), you’d feel welcome & integral to the learning community. More S voice than T- the person talking is doing the learning! 👏🏼#leadLAP x.com/katiemartinedu…

A4: We could stop calling our Ss low or high & instead address them by their individual needs. When Ss are failing, we have GOT to reflect on our own practices: what are we doing to support them in making sure they’ve learned🤨? That is on us! #leadLAP x.com/katiemartinedu…

Hundreds of STHS students rally for change. "One smile can show I exist. " "This is our generation's first call to action." #SouthLakeTahoe LTUSD PrincipalSosa #NationalSchoolWalkout southtahoenow.com/story/03/14/20…

Student engagement is usually in direct proportion to teacher enthusiasm.

According to the U.S. Dept. of Ed, of our nation’s 13,728 superintendents, only 7% are women. Yet 72% of all K–12 educators in this country are women. Here are tips from an AVID webinar I did with Cindy Martínez on Growing Women Leaders in Ed. #eduleadership #AVID #leadLAP
