AI literacy is new territory, but using AI with students starts with open conversations. Before diving in, teach kids how AI works, its limits, and how to use it responsibly & ethically. #RISDDreamOn

The amazing RLA duo of @AmyAlejandro5 & Jen Cheng led us down the Bambrick road so that we can better serve our teachers. Thanks for making us better! #RISDDreamOn #AlwaysAnEagle #RISDInsiders

We’ve brought science + social studies into literacy through knowledge-building curricula. Now let’s bring literacy into science + social studies. Knowledge and vocabulary fuel comprehension. All teachers are literacy teachers. 👏 nataliewexler.substack.com/p…

Differentiation is a hot topic. But knowledge-building means keeping content rich while adjusting the support students need to access it. As knowledge, skill & confidence grow, scaffolds come down. From @mcglynn3: kristenmcquillan.substack.co…

Mrs. Hover is stopping by ELA PLC’s today to review some valuable Region 10 resources for guiding student achievement. These focused conversations guide progress and help our kids and teachers to grow. Love it. 💙❤️

Students from RISD junior highs and several elementary campuses came together for a special Richardson Reads One Book experience with award-winning author @KateMessner! Messner took students behind the scenes of her writing, sharing the research, adventures and real people who inspired her stories. She talked about her multimodal story, The Trouble with Heroes, and the eight-year journey and 46 mountains she climbed as she brought the story to life. Each student even received a personal copy, a cookie made from a recipe in the book, and even got a sneak peek into her upcoming novel! What a great reminder that stories can take us anywhere and come from anywhere. 📚✨ @LIBRARIESinRISD
