@JayWamsted German teacher here. Them: How can you stand high schoolers? Teenagers are the worst! So are you, like, fluent? Say something in German! Also them: Who learns German anyway? It’s not useful like Spanish will be for students so why are we wasting their time?

Me: Nice to meet you I’m a middle school math teacher Them: Oh middle school is the worst and I always hated math Me: That really puts a damper on this conversation then doesn’t it

Celebrating #Karneval #Fastnacht #Fasnet at German Club by getting out all of our mischief, enjoying donuts, and hiding our identities with masks. #learngerman #deutschathhs

Gratuliere and Herzlichen Glückwunsch to the 21 inductees of Delta Epsilon Phi, the National German Honor Society! Looking forward to seeing the good things that this group will do! #deltaepsilonphi #learngerman #GermanAtHHS @AATGOnline @AatgIndiana

@PaulWenthold They all ate so much chocolate! I think it’s one of the favorite meetings every year!

Greg said he ate a lot of chocolate!

Lots of sweet and no-so-sweet sentiments! ❤️

German Club spent #Valentinstag making cards and trying 20 different types of chocolate from @AldiUSA! The clear winner was Carmel Brownie Cream! #learngerman

@NBPTS Dr. Chambers, you can be an inspiration by advocating for content areas that are not included! There are many of us out here who would like to participate, but we are not able!

Meet Dr. Chawanna Chambers, NBCT! She is the Director of Culturally Sustaining Candidate Support Network. 📣 Calling all NBCTs! Tell us about a colleague who inspires you. Tag them in the comments #TeamNBCT #NBCTstrong #TeacherCollaboration

@NBPTS Ironic that you should post about the magic of #InclusiveClassrooms when your organization continues to exclude teachers from the process. We want you to see us, @NBPTS , and work toward making your organization truly a #CommunityOfEducators so that all of us belong! 🙌

NBCTs create classrooms where every student feels like they belong. 🙌 That's the magic of a true learning community. #CommunityOfLearners #InclusiveClassrooms hubs.ly/Q02X_2ts0

Thank you, @BeAnnYounker , for speaking at commencement today and taking us on a fun musical journey from the past into the future!

The mid-term Class of 2025 is ready to graduate! Congratulations, Raiders! 🧡💙 #TSCSchools

@NBPTS One of my #TeacherGoals for 2025 is to continue advocating for equity in the National Board certification process so that teachers in ALL content areas can be included and celebrated!

FBI forensic scientist turned teacher is now pursuing #NBCT! 🤯 Dr. Terri Dove's journey proves it's never too late to grow! "Don't be fearful—be brave," she inspires. What are your #TeacherGoals for 2025? #NBCTJourney #GrowWithNBPTS #NeverStopLearning

@NBPTS A hearty congratulations to those teachers for their hard work! That said, posts like this always make me sad. They remind me that I am a second class teacher because my content area isn’t recognized. I hope that @NBPTS will acknowledge this someday and work toward equity!

🙌 Huge congrats to 53 new #NBCTs and 10 renewals in Baltimore County! You're transforming classrooms and inspiring students! #TeacherExcellence #BaltimoreCountySchools #MakingADifference hubs.ly/Q031gfWw0

Write it on your heart Ralph Waldo Emerson Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year. He is rich who owns the day, and no one owns the day who allows it to be invaded with fret and anxiety. Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities, no doubt crept in. Forget them as soon as you can, tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely, with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense. This new day is too dear, with its hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on the yesterdays.

@NBPTS Shout out to the teachers whose subjects aren’t offered and who @NBPTS continues to ignore! The gold standard for educators should include *ALL* content areas! #ExcellenceInTeaching needs equity! I want to be #NBCTCertified , too!

National Board Certification: The gold standard of teaching! 🌟 Shout out to all the incredible educators who have achieved this milestone. #ExcellenceInTeaching #NBCTCertified hubs.ly/Q02X-Y2m0

Same procedure as every year 👵🍷🐯

@T_Cocanower The film Joyeux Noelle tells this story beautifully, and kids are usually fascinated by it. Well worth showing in class!

One of my favorite moments to teach in World History!! Let’s all remember that we can find a way to love others and seek unity even in the middle of a war! Blessings to you and yours! Merry Christmas! ✝️ youtu.be/NWF2JBb1bvM?si…

@T_Cocanower That’s a beloved tradition at our house, too! Merry Christmas!

Christmas Eve tradition of watching It’s a Wonderful Life with the fam! Best movie ever!! smithsonianmag.com/smithsonian-in…

@NBPTS Still not within reach, not because of $$ but because you don’t offer my content area. You have the power to fix this, @NBPTS, and make a real difference for many educators!
