@samanthachin7 I found you on @Flipgrid and I am hoping our students can connect to talk about school culture in Canada and USA sometime in November. #gridpals
“The first red flag is when a teacher makes culturally responsive teaching all about relationships but leaves instruction unchanged.”
Coaching is critical to becoming a culturally responsive educator. That means building coach capacity around using cultural practices to facilitate deep learning. Zaretta Hammond on Coaching and Culturally Responsive Teaching - Educational Leadership ascd.org/publications/e…

Deep learning: what is it? And how can we help students achieve it? improvingteaching.co.uk/2019/10/20/dee…

A great visual to think more about how @Ready4rigor defines culturally responsive teaching, and how to go beyond surface and shallow culture to get at the deep stuff. Thanks to @carlota_holder for the beautiful #sketchnote #edchat #culturallyrelevant

Working on finding who is in charge of social studies education in some of the largest districts in the Western States. The reality? Oftentimes, no one is there! #STEM needs ethics and citizenship. #sschat #engsschat #edreform #democracy

Latest in our series on whole-class feedback: for whole-class feedback to be effective, it has to be a 'recipe for future action', not a statement. It can't just be a whole-class written comment - these are just as unhelpful as individual written comments! blog.nomoremarking.com/whole-class-fe…

Some teachers worry that #traumainformed practices will mean more work for already overburdened teachers, but others respond that using a trauma-informed approach makes the rest of their job easier owl.li/Ct6f30ncjm7 #edchat #wholechild #teachchat #cpchat

"The message for me, loud and clear, was that no matter how much experience I have, teaching is still challenging, and every group of students, every period, deserves thoughtful planning." #lifelonglearner #rigorrelevance #leesonplanningmatters #deeperlearningforall
Who else has fallen into this teaching trap? "I’m worried students won’t be able to do X, so I assume they can’t." @arielsacks discusses how being wrong has improved her practice. @EdWeekTeacher edweek.org/tm/articles/20… #teachchat #edchat
