“Education remains one of the black community's most enduring values. It is sustained by the belief that freedom and education go hand in hand, that learning and training are essential to economic quality and independence.” - Marian Wright Edelman, Activist for children's rights

What's the most rewarding part of building relationships with your students?

"Estimates show that as many as 3 million students are offline, hard to find, or have left school altogether as a result of school closures. In some places, data shows as many as 1 in 5 students did not participate in virtual learning in the spring. Building and maintaining strong “developmental relationships” that reconnect students with adults in school buildings will matter more now and in coming months than in previous school years. Without these trusting relationships and connections, educators cannot catch students up." - The Importance of Strong Relationships, @edtrust (link in bio)

Black students need a system that honors the integrity of their experiences both racially & culturally. They need pedagogy that is pluralistic & based on research steeped in what’s best for Black children.

Repost via @whyy:
Shakoor Henderson is a beloved North Philly math teacher and basketball coach. He traveled a long, winding path to get there, and says it’s partly thanks to a teacher in his past.

As a kid, Henderson was a promising athlete. But at 17 he was sent to juvenile detention. While there, he wrote letters to all the coaches who’d recruited him. His basketball coach and math teacher, Allen Taylor, wrote back. Taylor was his first Black male teacher — a mentor — and “it gave me that [feeling], there is life after this. I can still go back, and I can change some things."

🎧 On the latest episode of Schooled, we tell Henderson's story and dig into what it tells us about why Black male teachers only make up 2% of the nation's teaching force #phled

#MondayMotivation for teachers and educators committed to building the reading skills of every child that enters our class and care. Double tap the image if you agree!

[Text in image 1: "Y’all. This reading crisis might not be our fault, but it’s now our responsibility. Yes, I know that sometimes policies have been passed than makes things worse, not better. Yes, I know some students come to school from homes with no books and adults who never read to them"

[Text in image 2: "That…None of those things are our fault. But when the kids show up in our rooms, NEEDING to learn how to read, to analyze text, to judge ideas on their merit, to communicate effectively, to dream and imagine, to argue cogently and clearly, [it] becomes our responsibility."]

What do you do that demonstrates your competency as a teacher, but often goes unacknowledged?

Wherever your reflection reveals areas for growth, make a plan to do better next year and get it done.
