@pernilleripp It's the next audiobook on my list!

Before you take a stand, first you must take a seat. —#beaboutitlive #getyourteachon // Ready to listen and learn 💛

@LoganBethFisher @teachkate That is what I found. I actually could not physically wake up my daughter from it, and anything I did to try to soothe her would only cause more agitation, so I had to just ride it out, making sure she was safe in the process. Those were such loooong nights!

@teachkate My daughter had night terrors too. She never remembered them, but, as a parent, it was terrible to witness. I never find a solution, but she did outgrow then after a couple years. My thoughts are with you, and I truly hope you find a remedy to ease/prevent them!

@teacher2teacher 🔺Teaching will take up as much space in your life as you allow it, so be intentional with your work/life boundaries. 🔺Self-care is not selfish. 🔺Respect, Relationships, and Rigor, in that order. 🔺Find your marigold: cultofpedagogy.com/marigolds/ 🔺Remember your WHY 🧡

Fill in the blank! What advice might you offer a #FirstYearTeacher preparing to start teaching this fall? #MasteryChat #TeacherTwitter

@librarian343 @owens_ce @dawn_dmpayne @tiffanymjewell That's an awesome variation!

@TeachMrReed I usually don't make a big deal of it or acknowledge it unless it becomes habitual, but, as a person who is often late, I am really liking the idea of #2 🙂

There’s two type of people: 1. You’re late 2. I’m so happy you made it Which person are you?

@teacher2teacher @Tolerance_org I give them a pencil. It is more important to me for Ss to be able to participate in the learning during class. I stock up during sales, and as I walk the halls I pick up abandoned pencils to put in my classroom student supply center. Learning is the priority.

When Ss come to class without a pencil, how do you respond? On the importance of kindness, patience and pencils in developing a supportive learning environment (via @Tolerance_org): tolerance.org/magazine/give-… #KidsDeserveIt #BeTheOne #LoveTeaching

@PublixHelps @QDesamours “In a racist society, it is not enough to be non-racist, we must be antiracist.” —Angela Davis // @Publix You have a choice: continue to hide behind some flimsy policy that is inconsistently enforced OR change the policy and actively support this moral and ethical movement! #BLM

@QDesamours Our focus remains on ensuring a welcoming work and shopping environment for all associates and customers. Here is the letter our CEO Todd Jones sent to associates calling for compassion and empathy. publix.com/diversity

Today @Publix sent me, a publix employee home for having “BLM” written on my mask. The assistant store manager told me he doesn’t know if the company is “Pro or Con”. I will no longer be working for publix. Stand for something or you’ll fall for anything! #blacklivesmatterFL ✊🏾

@teacher2teacher @comicsocks @MrsEngler1 @DrKMetropoulos @TigerMolly11 @Mayestrah @MrsBrookeGill @wilsonpamelajo @KathyGF @JillDuBois22 Organize by week using Topics (ex: Wk36 May 4-8) and decide on a system for naming assignments (Wk36 | #2: XYZ Essay), then make a video to explain to students how your Classroom is set up. Consistency is key!

Seeking encouraging words for all teachers out there who feel like they're barely hanging on. Please share quotes, links, thoughts, memes, anything that is helping you get through this. Thank you. 🌻

@SteeleThoughts @Angela_Watson The heaviest hitters to my workload is 1) paperwork: please limit lesson plans, misc forms, parent contact log, D's/Fs grade log, etc, 2) emails: please combine into a daily summary whenever possible, and 3) coverage for ISS and classes with no sub: please protect plan periods!

We surveyed over 1000 teachers and the number one cited cause of teacher burnout was: WORKLOAD. So teachers... what can principals do to reduce your workload? (We’re looking for things that are directly under the control of the local principal.)

@teachMrsSmith @PamBurchill @SteeleThoughts We only have one minute between most classes

@PamBurchill @SteeleThoughts 3 minutes?! Yikes!

@amazon please offer a choice in shipping carriers or stop using flimsy envelopes when packaging books. My @USPS mail carrier bends EVERY. SINGLE. BOOK! Today's package was to be a gift but has a not-so-gift-worthy crease.

@NicholasFerroni Eighth grade. Only male teacher I recall any earlier was the student teacher who was there for a few weeks in elementary art class.

SOCIAL EXPERIMENT: If you come across this tweet, reply with the grade you were in when you had your first male teacher (excluding Phys ED).

@teacher2teacher Welcome. Acknowledged. Empowered. Curious. Capable. Respected. Safe.

Hey, #TeacherFriends: Fill in the blank! How should Ss feel at school? #JoyfulLeaders

@JanetPlanet20 @teacher2teacher I suggest start as co-teachers. Introduce then work through a few lessons together, taking turns talking, guiding, instructing. Gradually release responsibility over the next few weeks until they can independently lead a lesson. Then walk away and let them shine ✨ So empowering!

I’m getting a student teacher this fall. I haven’t been a mentor for a ST in a long time, so please spam me with advice!! @teacher2teacher #Teachers

@TeachMrReed @MonieFreshh How empowered they must have felt to be a part of such a huge moment in their teacher's life! Congratulations 💞

Promised her scholars back in January that I would marry their teacher (@MonieFreshh) if they did well on their state testing. They did well. So did I 😉💍👰🏽

@PresidentPat I tell my students to pay attention with their face (make eye contact, listen to who is speaking, close your mouth so no talking or making noises). It also reminds me to stop the multitasking when a student is speaking—put down the pen, look at them, really hear them.
