Baby girl (aka Little One) has arrived! What started with a routine appointment led us to rush to the hospital for me to be induced and eventually deliver, but she’s here and is perfect. My friends and family were asked to send prayers for her, I’d love that from you too.

It wasn’t until I taught at a Core Knowledge school that had DAILY science and social studies lessons that I realized how much they had been pushed out of traditional public schools, and how little students are learning about the world around them.
Hilary M@hilarym99

I think that folks don’t grasp the degree to which science and social studies is completely pushed out of the curriculum. The stuff kids don’t know would shock most educated adults.

I miss the good ‘ol days of early teacher twitter. Where are all the teachers at now that are sharing, collaborating, and learning from each other? #teaching #edu #edchat

@ThrillaRilla369 I am. We have a modest home to make up for the loss of my income. I’m glad to be at home but am tired.

If you read my writing (or would ever consider doing so), which of my favorite topics would you be most inclined to read about in the next week?

It was almost 90 degrees today. It should not be this hot in March. It’s very concerning to me that the climate monitoring that would provide some understanding of how significant this is and what is happening has all been shuttered by our current administration.

The thing that I take away from the Covid lockdown is how many people expected schools—and teachers—to stay open to babysit their kids. Parents didn’t even try to hide it. “We both work. What are we supposed to DO?” If there is another lockdown I hope that is addressed.

Did a quick @tjmaxx trip with my daughter and grandson. Of course we had to look at the toys! My mouth dropped when I saw this. We aren’t giving our children any time to be tech free. It’s like we are training them from birth.

@visakanv Greek yogurt with berries, bee pollen, coconut butter, almond butter, and a small amount of granola. I make the same for the kidlet but without the pollen and granola.

@FeralHeather Yeah, I was a “Visitor Use Assistant” in Yosemite and wanted to be a Wildland ranger instead, but they all required LEO.

So tempted to apply to become a park ranger in the same landscape my dad raised me. But the POST cert requirements turn me off (basically required to be a cop) governmentjobs.com/careers/marinc…
