Had a blast reading @CommonLit’s Michael Jordan: A Profile in Failure with my fifth grade scholars. Although it’s an eighth grade text (1040L), today’s readers were incredibly fluent and insightful. We’re committed to academic growth. Even in a pandemic. #WeAreKings #TheLastDance

My classroom isn’t perfect. Not every lesson is sensational. Not every scholar is academically where they need to be. I am not ‘the model teacher.’ But, every single kid knows they’re loved by me. #RelationshipsMatter

As the first months of school passed, educator Jonathan Bolding realized his thinking was holding his Ss back. So he shifted his mindset – and transformed his practice. #UnboxingEquity #LightbulbMoment #BeTheOne
