Thank you #NEASCforum for the opportunity to hear from students about their learning. Best advice, โ€œInvestigate your fear about giving students voice and consider what really makes you afraid.โ€ Proud of Luna and Jack from @ishelsinki (@bhthrash @KNaglee)

Taking students outside โ€“ even briefly โ€“ can help turn on students' senses. โ€œWhen kids show up and say, โ€˜I don't have anything to write,โ€™ it means that you haven't been outside and really opened your eyes.โ€ @KaraNewhouse ow.ly/jOlk50Ci7YC
