@heymrsbond I taught half low level 9th graders and half 12th graders in AP during my tenure. The juxtaposition was brilliant in the best and worst ways. But, man, teaching Shakespeare in 9 has always been such a highlight— as long as you’ve got great costumes.

@heymrsbond In Boston there is Teachers as Scholars. It offers myriad classes taught by local university professors. 2-3 days/class where you got to discuss wonderful poems, plays, novels with other teachers. I studied the Odyssey, Baldwin, Ancient Greek drama, etc. Highlight of my career

@heymrsbond If planned- teacher leaves unit maps and department head hires sub. If emergency, Department head does everything. In the past teachers were paid extra to grade student papers for the person on leave until a full time replacement was found.

@heymrsbond We just moved to the UK- which we were so privileged to do. It’s hard for me to fathom, but there has been a lifting of anxiety and panic attacks from teaching. While nothing is perfect, I have a sense of calm that I haven’t felt in at least 8 yrs. I send warm thoughts.

@mrs_g_rider We used puppy pads and doggy diapers for our 13 year old Boston Terrier. I mean, I pee when I sneeze now, so I feel the pain.

@heymrsbond Maybe these are permabound and that’s why you couldn’t find it online! They can hardcover anything. Glad it was figured out!

@heymrsbond The only hardcovers I am aware of from Penguin are a pretty purple floral cloth and like a cartoony modern one. Do you have the ISBN from what you gave students?

@heymrsbond The back page of the paperback with that cover says 1831. I would assume the hardcover would be the same?

@clhubes And let’s not overlook time- not all of us have time to make cheez-its from scratch or whatever. The only advice I follow is when introducing new food, the new food is on the plate but “safe foods” are reachable in the middle of the table. Everything else is whatever.

@heymrsbond The fanciest, loveliest writing experience is with a Parker Jotter Pen. They are super $$, but lovely.
