@JackieKayPoet I’ve been annotating your poem “Darling, and it really moved me. I’d love to DM you a few quick questions if you’re open to it — I care so much about the my students, and I know your words would mean a lot to them.
Thank you for such a beautiful piece 🏆🏆🏆

My lovely students, and classroom, have become my comfort/safe zone, but I no longer feel challenged. Is it wise to avoid becoming complacent in one school? Why do some teachers stay in the same school for yearSSS? Doesn’t that limit one’s growth?
@TTWAR62 @sofiaahmed1 Belive me, your smile will go a lonnnnng way!
I work as a teacher and one of my students emailed me to say “Ms, I saw what’s happening on the news. Are you ok”. Genuinely, cried at their thoughtfulness. The smallest acts of kindness are usually the ones that mean the most 😊😊

My granda was the same. Would ask my nan to cook extra food, daily, so they can feed homeless folk. My parents followed their footsteps…& now we do too…& we’ll pass this tradition on etc
Yet, here we are today. Second class citizens cause of skin colour. Very upsetting.
@bilal_labour I’ve honestly started loosing faith in humanity 😭 Folk just don’t get how difficult it is being a person of colour. 😭
Educational thread, for those who care to listen!
Unbeknownst to me, my S1s decided to play a “Ms Albashir bingo game” with the words I (allegedly) overuse. It made me laugh and got me thinking: What words do teachers use a lot in their classes? The green =talkers in my class, and nothing inappropriate 😂.@MrTs_NQTs#edutwitter
@RiversTsa I also recommend Jamie Thom’s podcast “Beyond survival: the new teacher podcast”. Different guests every week made for some very enlightening conversations. Give it a wee listen!
Trying to up my “tech” game this term. Any recommendations for useful websites/softwares? I only know of @nearpod and I’m sure there must be more for me to discover and utilise. Thannnnnnk you 😊 @MrTs_NQTs#edutwitter
@RogersHistory You too 🤦🏽♀️ I’ll use a school analogy.
Police are called as there is a “school shooter” in the building. Surely the LAST thing they should do is bomb the whole school with all the innocent wee kids inside. That’s what the Israeli government is doing atm. Ceasefire…negotiate!
@AlaHamdann Really enjoyed watching your interview today! It’s so important to highlight the beautiful culture that belongs to that part of the world. Every bit of embroidery tells a heartwarming story that needs to be shared. 🍉 🍉 🍉 ! We 🫒 you . (We “all love” you 😊)
