#WeirdEd Q5 Why shouldn’t I just make this chat a book study? I’ve written two, I could. It would be easy. And safe.

And also allowing them to express their opinions as well. A give & take #weirded

MissShuganah Nov 16 @ 10:43 PM EST

A4 We need to find ways of expressing our opinions without bulldozing youngsters. Gentle. Compassionate. #weirded
