Just a reminder about the language we use around #literacy as we look to celebrate the literate lives of #BlackHistoryMonth

The idea of vocabulary and "30 year language gap" needs revisiting: https://www.alsc.ala.org/blog/2015/11/is-the-30-million-word-gap-a-stat-we-should-be-using/

The Black home, in all its variety and variance from the single story of "falling behind" has beautiful stories and language throughout.

Let's stop preparing teachers into thinking kids come to school broken.

Addicts get interventions. Not six year olds.

Anyone have tips for the best USB drawing tablet to plug into my MBP? None of my Wacom tablets work, even after updating the drivers. They are from 2018, which isn't that old, but it might be time for an upgrade.

Feelin’ the love for a good IDE + modern Ruby tooling these days. Takes a bit of doing but VSCode w/integrated Terminal + Rubocop + Solargraph + YARD comments + File Watcher extension & Minitest = huge productivity and quality gain. And it’s FAST. 🤩
