Same here. My experience has driven me deeper and more impactfully back into my classroom practice and colleague support activities.

I like TERC accountable talk tools for science. They have a good discussion planning guide that has stems for teachers and students along with good approaches to support student-student exchanges.

Very good question. Curious if there's a culturally/socioeconomically diverse school that's having success with prompt completion of learning tasks. This year has been a train wreck for my crew in this regard. Anybody working where the magic is happening? Please share.
