"Make no mistake: to ban books is to snuff out the flame of truth, of what it means to be alive, what it means to be aware, what it means to be engaged in the world. To ban books is to cut us off from one another." Special guest Oprah Winfrey gets a standing ovation. #NBAwards

🤝 The role of a co-teacher is not to be a paraprofessional assisting the lead teacher. The co-teachers collaborate to plan, implement, assess, and evaluate together. #LeadInclusion #EdLeaders #Teachers #UDL #TeacherTwitter

How to change from TEACHING to LEARNING #4: Instead of a "Do Now/Bellringer" about preparation, drilling a skill, or reviewing homework. TRY Opening by activating prior knowledge & curiosity about the learning of the day.

How to change from TEACHING to LEARNING #2: Instead of posting a learning target out of compliance. TRY Putting the target to use, letting it drive the convos with learners before the learning of the day, the feedback around the task & the progress discovered when class ends.
