Students try to find various ways to use fraction pattern blocks & combine them to make one whole (represented by the hexagon). How could you use this POW to engage all students in the mathematics? Reply using #NCTMResources. #iTeachMath #MTBoS bit.ly/2yUWMZM

The past weeks have brought about many losses. Checker Finn highlights two: Abby Thernstrom, who for decades was a force in education and civil rights policy, and @AchieveInc, a laudable ed reform org that is closing its doors. They'll both be missed. gadf.ly/2zf2IwP

"If it’s not aligned, why would we even look?" Districts demand the curricula they buy be standards-aligned, and research suggests they're increasingly turning to third-party services to ensure that it is. marketbrief.edweek.org/marke… @EdReports @AchieveInc @LearningList @caselorg
"We certainly haven’t seen the last of Mike Cohen, and that’s a very good thing. His wisdom, his wit, his kindness and generosity, his energy and determination that American education must and can be better than it is—we still need that." bit.ly/3eMakHq

The NextGenScience team will manage and use the tools developed by @AchieveInc and housed on nextgenscience.org to increase availability of quality science materials, support districts to plan and implement equitable science education programs, and be stewards of the #NGSS.

Happy #EarthDay! Looking for some free materials to guide your learning about the Earth today? Check out a #SciencePRP reviewed middle school unit designed for the #NGSS, Investigating Life on the Third Rock: nextgenscience.org/resources…
A @ccsd_cpd middle school unit, Investigating Life on the Third Rock, includes an overarching driving question that adds to coherence and makes the solar system explicitly relevant to life on Earth. 🌍 1/3
My goodness, what a tremendous lineup of dedicated servants to students’ need that Achieve developed. Humbled to be a part of it all. And, while I’ll miss the organization called @AchieveInc , its contributions, people, and soul carry on!
So proud of @AchieveInc and its impact helping ensure all kids are prepared for college and careers. And grateful for colleagues Mike Cohen and @mattgandal @margmhorn @DrSPruitt @lesley_muldoon @AllisonrBarr @SandyBoyd4 @AlissaPeltzman @KateRobynBlos @DougSovde @BonnieHain et al

Achieve played an important role in number of early K-12 #OER efforts. Thanks for that good work — they’re leaving a strong legacy.

Plenty accomplished and so much more work to be done @AchieveInc. Most never lucky to find a ‘wamily’ (work + family) who sees you through 12 years of the professional and personal growth. Forever an overachiever💙
