thank you to Ace Schwarz (they/them) and @SeanBuildsMinds for sharing their experiences at the National Science Teaching Association virtual miniseries "what is social justice teaching in the science classroom?" in our department meeting today. I'm ready to sign up for the June session of the same series.

The sooner that students adopt retrieval practice as part of their study strategy repertoire, and teachers do the same as part of their teaching repertoire, the sooner they can reap the rewards of more efficient and more effective long-term learning. @PoojaAgarwal @RetrieveLearn

Much appreciation to the students of the environmental committee who spoke in assembly today about racism and environmental justice for #EarthDay

One of my 2nd grade students told me today that when he grows up, he wants to be a game designer and when he has his successful business, he's going to tell people that it is all thanks to me for introducing him to coding. Made my year! Code.org @ShipleySchool
