Old Mom New Teacher

Hey MAGA- If teachers could truly indoctrinate children, 100% of children would be reading on grade level.

Only in America can one party control the White House, the Senate, the House of Representatives, win the popular vote, and hold the majority of governorships—and still blame the other party for everything wrong with the country.

The people who promised to fix everything on day 1 are still out here blaming Joe Biden on day 467.

@MrDanielBuck Bill Gates

With 1-to-1 Chromebook policies, American students are spending thousands of hours just browsing YouTube during class Who in their right minds thought giving kids unfettered access to the internet during the school day would be good for learning?

This confirms what every teacher in the classroom knows. Ability grouping works. The bottom quartile hold back the kids at the top. We are throttling our top achievers and it will destroy our country. We need innovators and thinkers and developers. We must unleash our top achievers, let them run. Those students in the bottom quartile need small classes with teachers and pull out interventions. Push in does not work, it simply distracts the rest of the class and makes the classroom noisy. Every school elementary-high school must move to ability grouped classes. No more grade levels. They are arbitrary and don’t matter. Let kids accelerate as fast as possible, and conversely give the students who are struggling the intervention they need.

@TolentinoTeach I could not agree with this more. I always let students pick their partners or work alone if they prefer. No forced group work.

Unpopular idea: Many school environments are not built for introverts. Yes, collaboration matters. Yes, school plays an important role in social development. But let’s be honest about the other side. The constant noise. The pressure to speak on demand. The overuse of group work. The lack of control over classroom volume and behavior. The absence of sustained silence. All of it works against the introverted student. Many of the “quiet” students aren’t disengaged. They’re out of their element.

@panomics @AdamSinger Why and how access between periods?

@AdamSinger One of the reasons our children have phones is that they are both traveling competitors/athletes. And it is just more cost effective to buy a smartphone than a dumbphone. They put them into magnetically sealed bags at school but they do have access to them in between periods.

I don't understand why smartphones were ever allowed in schools in the first place. We weren't even allowed to take out a graphing calculator outside of very specific math or science classes. Did everyone just give up on rules and decorum at some point

NOBODY IS TELLING YOU HOW FUCKED THE FARMERS ARE IN AMERICA RIGHT NOW. The Agriculture Secretary just confirmed it publicly. 1 in 4 American farmers has NO fertilizer secured for spring planting. No fertilizer. No crops. No food. Farm bankruptcies are up 46% in 2025. 160,000 farms closed since 2017. Less than half of all farmers will even turn a profit this year. They're not struggling. They're being wiped out. And the media is busy covering everything else. The real story behind this hasn't been told yet.. follow me because i'm about to tell it 🚨

@TolentinoTeach I am a career changer and I have teacher across tbe hall feom me and she is a God send.

During my first year of teaching, there was a veteran teacher near my classroom with nearly thirty years of experience. She was methodical, well prepared, deeply professional, and ran a calm, well-managed classroom. One day, I watched our assistant principal—someone who hadn’t taught in a classroom for over a decade—reprimand her for the way she managed her students. I was stunned. Sadly, this wasn’t an isolated moment. It reflects a pattern that shows up far too often in education: veteran teachers being treated like children by people who haven’t run a classroom in years.

MacKenzie Scott divorced Jeff Bezos and got $36 billion in the divorce. She has donated $26 billion to charity since then. She’s now worth $42 billion, six billion MORE than when she started TAX THE BILLIONAIRES. THEY’LL BE FINE.

The fact we are going to have our first trillionaire before everyone has access to clean drinking water is proof our current system is not for the greater good but for the greedy.

fuck you

@DrNeilStone @tryingattimes Please. I’ve had many broken bones. Starting with my tibia when I was 10 years old I have never needed even a doctor much less an X-ray to tell me my bone was broken.

Without Xrays there are no broken bones

@educator4ever36 The amount of testing is absurd, costly and pointless.

In this season of testing, remember test anxiety is a made up term and any “symptoms” can be removed from exposure and practice, not elimination of the timer.

If you think the fucking badass Secret Service of the United States, after keeping the first black president safe for 8 years in office without major incident, has now screwed up royally FOUR TIMES securing Trump? You’re not real bright.

@randrmomcats @TwoEaglesMom2 @MrPitbull07 I’m so sorry.

@TwoEaglesMom2 @MrPitbull07 Guessing myocarditis. My youngest son died in his sleep from myocarditis 5/15/2013 years before myocarditis was mainstream.

He was celebrating a win on the baseball field… smiling, healthy, full of life. Hours later, he was gone. Maddox Graser was a sophomore at Wooster High School. A dedicated athlete. A teammate who had just helped his team secure a big victory. Nothing seemed wrong. No warning. Then, later that same evening, Maddox suddenly became severely ill at home. What started as sickness escalated fast. He was rushed to the hospital, then life-flighted to Akron Children’s in Ohio as his condition worsened. In a matter of hours, everything changed. His family went from cheering him on, to standing beside him in the Pediatric ICU, praying for a miracle. Now, they are mourning a loss no one saw coming. The school describes Maddox as “an outstanding student, athlete, and friend”… someone deeply loved by his classmates and teammates. There are still no clear answers. Just shock and heartbreak. We’ve been asked to please lift Maddox’s family up. Pray for his parents, who are trying to make sense of how a normal day turned into this. Pray for his teammates and friends, who were just celebrating with him. He was only 17. RIP.

@MichelleMaxwell @grok what killed this child?

I believe in the power of prayer. Please join me in praying for Maddox. Dear Jesus, please heal him and help his family get through this difficult time 🙏✝️🙏 Last night Maddox Graser had two hits and helped his Wooster High School baseball team win 10 to 0. He was perfectly fine. By 8 pm he was throwing up at home. It got worse fast. He was rushed to the hospital in Wooster and then life flighted to the Pediatric ICU at Akron Children’s Hospital this morning. Maddox is a sophomore. A second baseman. A teammate. A son. Right now he has no brain activity. From a baseball field celebrating a win to a pediatric ICU fighting for his life in less than twelve hours. His family never saw this coming. Nobody did. His mom and dad are sitting in that hospital right now needing every prayer they can get. If you believe in miracles please stop scrolling right now and say one for Maddox. His family is pleading for them. Please share this post. The wider this reaches the more people are praying over this young man tonight. Maddox Graser. Remember that name and lift it up.

I’ve never seen anything more accurate

@marcgheymans @benonwine Now you know how the vast majority of people feel about trophy hunters. We’d like to see this happen to each and every one of them.

@benonwine The comments on here are absolutely disgusting. You should be ashamed of yourselves, this man was someone's father, brother, son and you show real lack of understanding of the the conservation value of professional hunting. Incredibly narrow minded and stupid

The family of Ernie Dosio say they learned of his death in the worst possible way. Lawyers were told first. The family found out later. Dosio, 75, was killed on April 17 in Gabon after a herd of elephants charged him during a hunting expedition in dense rainforest. He had been tracking a rare antelope when the group stumbled into five female elephants with a calf. Hidden in thick vegetation, they appeared “out of nowhere” and charged. The professional hunter with him was seriously injured. Dosio, armed only with a shotgun, was left exposed. Now his son Jeff Dosio says the story has been “twisted”… while his ex-wife Rinda Butler Dosio describes confusion, conflicting reports and a family left in shock. Online, reactions have been brutal with figures like Ricky Gervais among those criticised for mocking his death. A chaotic tragedy… and a deeply divided response. In my view, You can’t spend a lifetime killing animals… then expect sympathy when it goes wrong you enter their world with a gun… and sometimes you don’t walk out.
