My personal PC hard drive crashed - taking with it 8 years of family pics, among other things. Backup lesson learnt. Having said that, data recovery specialists are asking for $900 to recover drive contents. What would you do? No-brainer for me, but other thoughts?

I'd pay for it without question. For backup, I personally have a Synology NAS (DS918+). I've backed up our local files to it, and every month pull down copies from the cloud where the photos we take with our phones are and store them on the NAS. I also scan in all the Lifetouch photos from school and sports to copy over to the NAS. On the NAS I've setup Glacier Backup to backup our files from the NAS to AWS S3 Glacier. So hopefully, we'll never lose the digital representations of our family memories.

Try Recuva. It might be able to access the data. Or ask your eDiscovery department. They have experience with data collection and recovery.

Sounds weirdly expensive. I had a laptop go through a full on house fire, and even recovering from a partially melted blob didn’t cost that much.

Today, I showed a TED Talk about the Guatemalan genocide. We were discussing the role of forensic anthropologists. It made such an impact on my students. I teach in a super red state and district and often my students do not see the pain of our Central American neighbors and why they seek asylum here. I tied their plight to my mom’s post-WWII and asked them why she was welcomed by our current immigrants are not. It was so powerful. One of my LatinoX students told me thank you for today’s lesson.

Did anyone else adopt the new Florida Wonders curriculum? We just adopted it this school year, and I teach 4th grade. My team and I have not found a good flow, schedule, or whatever you want to call it. We feel like it teaches too many skills in one lesson, and we are not able to truly teach anything “deep” enough for students to master. Does anyone have any insight? What do you do? Do you like the curriculum? Why or why not? Would you be willing to share what you do weekly/daily? Thanks!
