S asked me to play @ recess 2day. I did. It was silly but fun & made his day. He thanked me at dismissal. ♡ #KindnessWins #KidsDeserveIt

A1: Cost and lack of trust within our district #kidsdeserveit

DFWRenaissance Feb 22 @ 9:38 PM EST

#kidsdeserveit I definitely hope so when I think of the fates that some pencils have come to them in my class!

A3: Students are more responsible with their Chromebook than they are with a pencil. Just sayin... #kidsdeserveit

Thanks everyone! Can we start a @Voxer group so we can share #KidsDeserveIt for more than 30 minutes a week? (Asking for a friend...)

Just remember, it's very difficult to undo bad practice. It's a simlar danger to homework. #kidsdeserveit

So glad my Ss are at library & I can continue with these chats. I'd be devastated without them. #KidsDeserveIt

I think the ones who are interested will gravitate naturally. The others need to chase trout with a fly rod :) #kidsdeserveit

We need to find a way to recognize students and teachers. Shaming schools with less resources or programs will not support growth. #essainar

Feedback is essential for growth. Everyone CAN improve. Why? #kidsdeserveit
