Is behaviour worse in schools? 🧵 Almost universally the (hundreds of) schools I have spoken to have said YES - and attributed this to mental health and emotional problems arising from the pandemic. BUT . . .
Kids don’t even look like they’re having fun on their phones anymore They used to sing & laugh & play along. Now they mostly just look like zombies staring at a meal
Here's a shot of the Sombrero galaxy I captured last night with my scope. It's quite small, so it is much harder to get details on than say, Andromeda galaxy. Overall I'm still thrilled at how this capture is coming along! This is just 90 min out of a planned 30 hour capture.
I’ve used my iPad to teach & ink demos during class using OneNote for a couple years but the syncing lags so much it became impossible. I discovered @MiroHQ this week & I’m in love. It’s instant & gorgeous. Waiting on my educator acct approval to go nuts with it. #iTeachPhysics
I don’t know, @Wendys…I just don’t think I got my money’s worth here tonight.
This was actually why I stopped giving homework.

My classes are capped at 24 this year in my new school and I can’t even tell you the difference it makes.
This video is, of course, bullshit. I just want to remind everybody that eye glasses are one of the greatest disability accommodation success stories in human history. Wear your glasses.

This is a fellow teacher at my school - she doesn't need much to get her project funded! She teaches chemistry, bio, and earth science to urban gifted students. #clearthelist2023 #DonorsChoose donorschoose.org/project/trees-…

If anyone has a little money to support gifted & talented physics students in a Title 1 urban school, my gamification #DonorsChoose is live and can be funded for only $333 right now due to a triple corporate match! #STEM #ClearTheLists #clearthelist2023 donorschoose.org/project/game-o…

Misery is a 10-hour day 3 of inservice, not eating lunch, coming home and ordering your delivery staple GF @barrospizza and it arrives and they changed the crust to this new unpleasant puffy whitebread dry mess and you have to throw 20 teacher dollars in the trash and eat a PBJ.
Most of the comments on this post sum it up.

Enough. I don’t want to hear about pandemic teaching from anyone who didn’t teach in a pandemic. What teachers did to keep kids learning in those years is nothing less than a goddamn miracle. Anyone who can’t see that is hereby dismissed from the conversation
Sorry? Teachers reinvented how they taught within days, learned dozens of different virtual teaching tools, rewrote curriculum and taught to black screens all while staying outwardly cheery through a global pandemic and political culture war. We got better. Teaching got harder.

You get what you reinforce, as the old saying goes. Give lots of time and attention to self-control, diligence, courtesy and respect, and we will likely see more of it.
@JayWamsted Dopamine is all gone. There is interesting survey data that shows kids would give up social media if everyone else did. We need to normalize NOT being on it.

When I started teaching, I met many veterans who were bitter, and at the time I could not understand why they felt that way. 16 Years in and now I get it. This profession can only disappoint you so many times before you become demoralized. I’m not there quite yet, but I get it
Ok #ITeachPhysics peeps in section B we have Negative Displacement with a negative Net Force so that should be a positive amount of Work right? Also Kinetic Energy went up so the Change in KE should be + therefore +W right? Or am I missing something critical?
I try to stay cheerful on here, but I'm feeling really awful about this. Does anyone else feel like the pandemic, or perimenopause, or both, just somehow destroyed whatever mental balance you had managed to achieve up to that point? I'm so tired.
Certain types of sea urchins will pick up a shell with their tube feet and ‘wear’ it, with a behavior known as “covering reaction”, mainly because they shy away from light. So aquarium enthusiasts 3D-printed tiny hats and they actually wear them.
Years of administrators recommending ‘building relationships’ as the solution to behavioral concerns in the classroom was always going to end with great teachers burning out because relationships can only go so far and cannot and should not be used as behavioral management.
Just because......this video is actually real and it's out of this world!!! Translation..... -Just ski -Look at that pink there -Totally unbelievable -Waoh!
@heymrsbond Maybe it’s the teachers who are struggling with teaching after Covid and the ficus needs to be there. It’s hard to do what we do while we are always chasing the target that was lost when we closed down schools. The impact is real and the experience was not the same for everyone.

When a student asks "When am I going to use this in the real world?", 9 times out of 10 they don't mean "When am I going to use this in the real world?". They mean "I don't get this."

Schools function on a lot of ‘good will’ from staff. Offering to do things like staying late, organising things last minute, going on trips. When staff are exhausted or start putting boundaries in place because they’re burning out it’s quite a shock for some people.
"You have to have a summative assessment." Why?
I captured the Eclipse using 5 different telescopes. It will be a lot of work to combine all the data into the final image I envisioned when I took the trip to Utah to capture it, but in the meantime admire this beautiful shot out of my 8" telescope with a white light filter.
