When learning through a screen, take your time. Make a connection. Change your sweater and your shoes ๐Ÿ˜‰ #learnfromfred @Michell44866522 @IntegrateJen

YOU can change the climate and culture of your grade level, your department, your coaching staff, your school. If you are waiting for someone else to change it, you could be waiting forever.

I hope parents better understand and appreciate not only what teachers do for their children but how much they care about them. and I hope teachers see that school work at home requires a lot from the parents & remembers this when assigning home work & projects in the future.

This question is like a Lays potato chip...Dealing with bad admin/absent admin, toxic co-workers, coping in a system that doesn't value me or people who look like me, stress management, ineffective mentors...maybe you should give me a call and grab a glass of wine before you do.
