Not normal & yet totally unsurprising.
I’ve really pissed my teens off lately. I stopped covering their ‘wants’ and pulled back to just covering their ‘needs’. As a byproduct, they’ve learned the following lessons (and were uncomfortable the entire time) - They’ve designed resumes They’ve gone door to door in…
I struggled as a coach this club season. Had a hard time navigating positions, lineups, optimizing roles, etc. At one point, I thought we were even regressing. &, then, yesterday, we went out & won Regionals, 1st/gold. Sports are wild, man. They teach so much. Humbled
So simple and sweet. Warms my heart. Over and over again.

If we're content to give credit to students who pass a final regardless of class performance, make 10 versions of the test, offer exam multiple times a year, allow any kid of any age w/o restrictions to take it.
The r/Teachers subreddit is like this every single day
Just got called on in my union rep role. Whether organized or not, it would seem that some of the teacher's in the building are rebeling against always having to do coverage on Fridays because so many people out. People are just not showing up for coverage.

Yes to sports, especially team sports. They have so much to offer your kids.
Yes to sports, especially team sports. They have so much to offer your kids.
How to engage kids without Rewards?! - Give them choices and make them feel accountable. - Give them specific feedback. - Involve them when making decisions. - Make "fun" a priority. - Have frequent "why" conversations.
This is why I see creating and scaling new learning communities based on connection, community, meaning, and purpose as urgent.

Our spiritual war is ultimately between good & evil, but it's manifested daily in people, us, between connection & isolation/disconnection. I make a lot of negative posts about school on X bc I fear we aren't grasping (as a society) how badly disconnected we're becoming.
When I say the only metric used to judge the value of a teacher is ARE THEY EXCITED TO SHOW UP FOR CLASS it’s not because I don’t value learning. I actually value it more! The only way to win THE LONG GAME is if you attach emotion to the content. INTENT PRECEDES CONTENT!!🤷♂️

Teachers are tired of giving their all to *teach* with minimal support coming from anywhere to a checked out classroom. Yes, there are some great, engaged kids. But those who don't care and don't try are so draining and defeating.

What does "high-friction" look like? - misbehaviors - chronic absenteeism - frequent & extended BR breaks - grades as a threat/motivation - cajoling, coddling, begging kids to do work - boredom, frustration, resentment - emptying of proverbial cup

High-friction, low-effort classrooms are the norm now. Obviously unsustainable. A path forward means designing for the opposite: low-friction, high-effort. There's no greater question in ed today than that. How do we maximize the # of low-friction, high-effort environments?

As w/ most circumstances, context & personal experience matter. I'd let it go. Add a sidebar on being discreet. But, who knows, maybe something goes down in school. Mace goes off. You regret not saying anything. Sometimes that happens, too, and then we err on the flip side.
