There’s no silver bullet to keeping students on track and disruptions at bay—a 2021 study notes that being an effective teacher “requires the adaptive application of a repertoire of different classroom management strategies.”

Incredibly stoked for @ryanfm.bsky.social's book to be out, with illustrations from @chelseabeck.bsky.social. Epic team.
new collage by me featuring very, very sweet "smile" notes from fourth graders :,)
an excellent interview by @youkiterada.bsky.social with an accompanying collage by the amazing Valerie Chiang! Huge shout out to David Yeager for providing some excellent action shots to use for this art :)

Was really wonderful to work with Nick Little on the art here. Made me want to print out this incredibly supportive teacher and keep him on my desk.
Oh thanks so much!!

Collage (featuring my hand and gardening glove) for Creating Safe, Joyful Outdoor Learning Opportunities.
as a person who Draws, it can be tempting to lean into that as a way to solve every visual problem. To avoid too much samey-ness in our web art I've been challenging myself to find new ways to make illustrations! Photos, stock, and public domain artifacts have all been a blast to experiment with!
some preview shots of an upcoming illo (also featuring my very own iPhone photography!)
Check this one out with some really fun inset illos from the amaaaazing Lourenço Providencia!!
Really great post by @jamesbedford.bsky.social on @edutopia.org today about his monthlong break from AI tools.
(featuring some neat hero art by the amazing guillemcasasus.com !)

going through public domain images and hoping, praying, I will find an excuse to use This Guy in the future.... pdimagearchive.org
Great overview on scaffolding by @toddfinley.bsky.social, with loads of helpful links (and nice art by @chelseabeck.bsky.social): www.edutopia.org/article/powe...
Shira Inbar crushed this art!! Check it out on the site to see it move 👀👀👀
It was great working with @chelseabeck.bsky.social on this illustration of Spencer Russell for Edutopia! Chelsea is a super talented illustrator and and equally great art director. I wish all projects were this fun!

Teachers! I did the roundup for Edutopia for their favourite articles of the year. Big thanks to @chelseabeck.bsky.social for being a great AD #illustration #teaching #education www.edutopia.org/article/2024...
I can announce I have, for like the 10th year in a row, forgotten about all illustration annual deadlines and not submitted anything. I need someone to personally come to my house once a year and yell at me when it's time to upload!!!
I’m painting and crushing through my Buffy rewatch and lemme tell you I’ll never be ready for season 5 e16. they need to mail you a warm blanket if Hulu senses you’re on that one!!!
Finally doing it, powered by riley putting together a very tiny wooden Red Force from one piece.
How many paintings do I have to do before I finally feel ready to tackle the two I *have* to do???
"Teachers grading a stack of assignments may notice that they start to feel cranky as the pile shrinks. Now researchers have evidence that working straight through the grading blues can impact students’ final scores."
quick illo from July for @edutopia.bsky.social's research newsletter
