Me: we’re going to read a living poet today. Her poem is from 1994 Student: oh, I thought it would be more recent. Student 2: How old is she? Like 80? Me: I was ALSO ALIVE IN 1994…. but yes she's 72. @MelAlterSmith’s NCTE presentations didn’t prepare me for this 😂

@HeyMrsThornton Was just talking with another counselor who took a training that discussed how not all burnout is burnout, sometimes it’s when there are gaps or flaws in systems that don’t support everyone equally and we can’t easily fix that

I’m tired of admin/educators and this refrain of “be more interesting than what’s on their phone.” 🙄 I literally had a kid tell me today that my class is really interesting but TikTok requires less brain power to be interesting.

Jessica Lahey is on Threads as teacherlahey
Had the discussion with my kid about shifting his thinking away from "I wonder if that college will take me" toward "I wonder if that college will value me." It's a profound and important reframing for the college application process. #CollegeAdmissions

@lexiarchacki @HeyMrsThornton Our nail salon is right across from a hospital so we get alot of doctors and nurses and i remember this one customer who was arguing about why you shouldn't get the vaccine to a doctor with 30 years of experience. Everyone here thinks they're smarter than actual professionals.
