Least favorite teacher feedback loop: teaching requires more work than you’re given time for, so you go in early / stay late to do it, get tired / sick from not enough rest, can’t stay late / go in early because you don’t feel well, more work piles up, repeat forever (but harder)
How successful would hospitals be if doctors weren’t given enough time to scrub in or read scans or do charts?
I always get jealous of the characters on Grey’s Anatomy because they’re given enough time during their work day to fill out / review patients’ charts.
I wish I had the amount of planning time that the 22-page math unit guides think I have.
Will make anchor charts on commission. Only $500 each. Anybody?
In middle school I built robots out of scrap metal, RC airplane servos, and motors from conveyor belts. They fought each other in a lexan cage. Today I’m on the other side of the competition, facilitating an event I wish I had when I was younger. Full circle. @firstlegoleague
These new standards are not only alarming, they're also racist, factually-incorrect, + age-inappropriate- and were made without ANY public input. We made a 1-click action for y'all to email the Board of Education to reject @VA_Supt & Youngkin's standards: act.newmode.net/action/hc/stop…

Literally the opposite of equity. If anyone should be getting food options delivered to their doorstep it’s the people who have a smaller window to eat with greater consequence if we’re gone for too long. They can even eat at their desk after their break — we can’t.

Pretty neat that the KLC is getting different daily food trucks as lunch options (in addition to their cafeteria) while I’m lucky if I can shove a sandwich down my gullet in 20 minutes while doing work I couldn’t do in the weekly 80 minutes of meeting-free planning time.
Teaching is a lot like iPhone games that are advertised as “free” but actually require $10 monthly subscription fees to make the game anything better than a horribly unfun experience, but replace microtransactions with doing multiple hours of work outside contract hours.
It’s a perfectly crisp fall afternoon and teachers all around @PWCSNews are stuck inside preparing for conferences & finishing report cards because our normal end-of-Oct work day was taken away in a year when there are even more responsibilities & requirements than ever.
BREAKING NEWS: The super majority Democratic PWCS School Board just passed an anti-union collective bargaining resolution AFTER educators shared concerns of: 1. Unfair election process 2. Limited scope for bargaining 3. Weaponizing strike language Educators deserve better.
Why did no one stop me from watching yet another school board meeting where people who were never teachers make decisions that they aren’t qualified to make? Did I learn nothing from 2020?
Watching teachers pleading at school board meetings, fighting for common sense policies like it’s a summer 2020 @PWCSNews school board meeting about “”””concurrent”””” learning. Ahh, nostalgia.
I spy a @BedfordFallsBks book fair arriving! @MNEStheBest #mnestbest
Half of the things I have to do after work today is more work for work so I can do work at work.
Dream: I had to teach a lesson about teeth (college-level dentistry stuff), but didn’t have resources. (I guess we didn’t have a CLT.) I had to steal written-on task cards from a teacher’s stack of graded work, cut out the answers her kids wrote, & tape it into whole 1 paper.
Watching some @MNEStheBest students SOAR on the soccer field today! A couple of 3rd grade besties faced off against one another and there was some great sportsmanship on the field. @HiMrDavis you would have been so proud!

#WriteTip Need to develop your characters? Try a freewrite (separate from your WIP) to brainstorm how they see/feel about the world. How do they feel about other characters? What theories do they have re. the plot/subplots? How do they get in their own way? #amwriting #amrevising
For the record: It’s okay if you take a moment to not think about what you are doing next school year. You are human…not a robot.
