I don’t know which teacher needs to hear this - I’ve said it before I’ll say it again - but you don’t have to spend the first day of the holidays cleaning your house. #edutwitter

This week the hardest part of teaching wasn’t the workload, lack of appreciation, or even the system. It was how much I love the kids and how hard it is to say goodbye 💔

#AI4K2: I used #midjourney5 to recreate our majestic @RioSTEAMSchool mascot: 🔥THE PHOENIX🔥 Think about it: You cant find anything this specific on Google. I spent 2 mins creating a text prompt, then spent ZERO energy searching thru Google Images. #rioschools #midjourneyAI

Dear @DrDogMusic, do I get a golden ticket to the next live show if I noticed that Shadow People on Live 2 is in fact Rock n Roll from B Room? And yes I say next live show because I’m a last tour denier @ericslickmusic

Still thinking about the third grader at our @riodelsolptsa Trunk or Treat who tried to dump his own bin of candy in to the bin to hand out to others when he noticed we ran out. What a guy!

My students are very impatiently waiting for Episode 3 of the @Headspace @starwars meditations. If you don’t have your free educator account yet, you won’t regret it!

Loving these #ThinkingClassroom threads! Anyone care to share their favorite non curricular tasks for 3rd grade? 🧐

Sorry, but this tragedy isn’t “unimaginable.” We saw ten people killed at a grocery store last week! We saw an elementary school shot up with 20 kids dead less than ten years ago. It’s very much imaginable now.

When my students call themselves Emo Kids but don’t know what MCR stands for are they even emo kids? @MCRofficial

My therapist told me lawyers used to be their largest clientele and now by far and large it is teachers. This speaks volumes about our education system. PS - Fight the stigma! Go to therapy. Take your meds if you need them. Mental health is health 💚 ;

Today I complimented one of my blocks when I didn’t see a single student on cool math games in another tab. A student responded “We are playing a cool math game!” and pointed to his @Desmos. I love @Desmos!

The Friday before Spring Break April Fool’s Day with Middle Schoolers = sensory overload! Can’t wait to finally spend some serious time focused on my partner, friends, family and myself

Student loan payments restarting has my partner and I constantly stressing about money. Mine are $560 a month. What’s yours?
