@RogersHistory "warm demanding" is a worthy challenge. But yes it can have conflict.

Forming good relationships with disruptive pupils will inevitably involve some conflict because you can’t just pander to the negative behaviours - you have to address them. So all the folks who say ‘wow, so much conflict, so many detentions etc- bad teacher! this teacher needs to form better relationships!’ - they might be on the path to those. True, real and lasting relationships often develop out of high expectations and hard graft over time.

Newsflash: teachers can’t run 1-1 therapy sessions in mainstream classrooms after every behaviour incident AND still teach stuff.

@MerriamWebster alot it almost got in there once...

Ain’t. Conversate. Irregardless. You all love to tell us what shouldn’t be a word. Please tell us what SHOULD be a word.

@dhabecker I saw the doubling and yes, got to "2x - x" BUT then I realized that I'd have gotten this one right anyway because you can't subtract something and have the same thing and I would *know* powers didn't work like a.

#RecreationalMath I find this answer so counterintuitive.

@TeachMrReed But also what's that smell :P

Here is my interpretation of students: 8th Graders: Nothing more than older, bigger 5th graders. They think they’re ‘grown’ and high schoolers already, but they’re not. You still gotta walk across that stage lil 13-year-old lol. It ain’t May or June yet. Chill out 😂

@RobJLow @DavidKButlerUoA A review question today: 1/3u + 2/9U = 1/12U or the like. I'd hve taken a few seconds to say "oh, zero!" and moved on. They would blow it up to 12u + 8U = 3U and then stumbled madly.

@DavidKButlerUoA What they don't necessarily realise is that the exam sorts people out by how quickly they progress. It's a measure of something...

People really underestimate the time it takes to become good enough at something to do it successfully under exam conditions.

@tressiemcphd @DavidKaib I especially am fearful because my Catholic upbringing and current faith is **all about** social justice, Vatican II... and they keep spitting out the priests we have who are of that ilk and more fearfully bringing in ones like our guy whose original calling was to be a cop.

So a teacher could get fired for "write a letter to your congressperson" assignments.

@ElectFrench Speak for yourself about being out of touch.

Parents have a right to know what their own children are being taught in school and have their voices heard. This isn't a partisan issue. But Democrats in Congress don't seem to get it—not even one of them voted for the Parents Bill of Rights. Out of touch.

@beekaynz sending calming thougths your way but my weather tweeple are dropping their jaws *from here.*

@TheTNHoller @DisabilityStor1 @Justinjpearson Talk about "decorum."

Rep. @Justinjpearson: “You all heard that. How many of you would want to be spoken to that way?” Pearson responds to Rep. Farmer’s belittling, disrespectful rant. #TennesseeThree

@mrbeeteach is the purple thing a square?

Friday's Key Stage 1 and 2 daily tasks mrbeeteach.com 🐝

@cmmteach How's it going???? I'm having to resort to pomodoro now...

There will be free pizza at the Monumental Step at 5:50ish (You will need to watch the keynote speech! It is about the "How Thinking Like An Engineering Leads To Innovation")

@Ebonyteach NY Times. In their bubble.

@cmmteach Thanks for reminding me that my yesterday's task that I didn't get to was to make a list....

We have kids being shot and killed in schools and suffering chemical burns in factories and Republicans really want to look us in the face and tell us the actual problem is children's books.
