I learned so much from this podcast about the history of queer Jews in Washington DC!
"I really want this exhibit to teach other young LGBT people about our own history"
In our new podcast episode, step into the history of queer Jews in DC as we tour the Capital Jewish Museum’s exhibit, “LGBTJews in the Federal City” with curators Jonathan Edelman and Sarah Leavitt: buff.ly/fp87pqW

One of my favorite things is learning from someone else how to improve on an idea. My students are already familiar with Beyoncé as our heuristic to remember the French accent aigu, but the tipped hat is next level! Thank you Erin Fell for a great presentation on Accommodations at #ACTFL! #langchat

Just had my best ever French 6 class with a very bouncy group on a Friday afternoon!? This game really builds focus and listening in my experience. Pictures (to print as thumbnails and place in plastic sleeves here): docs.google.com/presentation... #langchat #fle #Frenchteachers

It's outrageous that Spotify is running ICE ads. I've canceled our subscription (much to my teens' chagrin) because it's wrong to recruit for ICE. #CancelSpotify app.sosha.ai/s/uMrnjfJH

Mike Johnson refuses to swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva — because her vote could force the House to release the Epstein Files. The GOP is doing everything they can to keep Trump's Epstein cover-up going.

Trying to cement another best practice into my repertoire this year. Ss said these were tough, which was my goal. They were shocked when I explained that hard Qs are actually better for retrieval! @retrievelearn.bsky.social #langchat

The Israeli military said on Monday that it had received the 20 remaining living hostages released by Hamas under the terms of the cease-fire deal.
On today's episode of "The Daily," Rachel Abrams speaks to families of those hostages, and to other Israelis, about the long-anticipated moment.

A student whose home language is French is frustrated by their lower score on writing assessments. I'm hoping studying these exemplars will help. How do you build your collection of exemplars and how do you use them with students? #langchat

Still learning how to train 6th graders (in year 7 of teaching them!?). This slide felt heavy-handed and ridiculous to me, but has been extremely effective. #langchat

My ePals collaborating teacher had her French 6th graders make notebook covers for English class, and my 6th graders are to vote on their favorites! I think my students will be surprised by the small place of the US in French students' imagination (just a 🌭 & 🚚!). 🤣 #langchat #fle

Favorite classroom organization hack (discovered during COVID!): put tape to indicate where desks go in your classroom. Then direct students to push desks back to their proper location anytime! Helpful when you've got a lot of kids and backpacks navigating a too-small space. #langchat

A 6th grade ELA teacher helped me figure out how to hang the francophone flags in an attractive & non-chaotic manner, I reused my composition books for a 4th year of L1 reflective journaling, and I've already had a canary in the coalmine moment. #langchat
