  • Importance of talk moves and listening moves, with Elham Kazemi and Allison Hintz, authors of Intentional Talk And Listening
  • The joy of celebrating someone else's learning from Vanessa Vakharia
  • How the Science of Reading does not correlate or correspond with what the people who call themselves the Science of Math are suggesting
  • The importance of Affirming Learning Walks
