"I think we must accept that nothing we do in online learning will be the same as real school, but we have to make every effort to keep going; our students need us." Educators and other experts share tips to curb teacher burnout during this crazy time.

Nothing makes me more irritated than when a parent uses social media to air their complaints and concerns....well, except when an educator does it. Social media is not a place for you to blast your colleagues, admin or parents. If you have a problem, go directly to that person.

Hey teachers, you’re doing a great job.

You don’t have to start a new podcast, PD book, or join a new webinar.

Just take time to breathe & to disconnect.

Don’t listen to those who say to utilize this time. They don’t understand the pressure you’re under. #KidsDeserveIt

Is anyone else busier now than when they had to go in to work? 🤷‍♂️

I love that #GoogleClassroom let's me assign to a sub group of students. I have one kid whose really into something. When I find things on that topic I assign to only him as a challenge. Have a topic with his name. No one sees it but him. #googleEDU

Some families are focusing on schoolwork.

Some families are focusing on mental health.

Some families are focusing on survival.

Different families have different needs at this time. Let's be supportive of that.

Educators are flying the plane while building it. What we have learned is that a virus cannot stop their commitment to kids.

PSA:

Set boundaries. You do not need to answer emails and fix problems all weekend.

You need a break too. Your family deserves a present you.

Shout out to all of the parents out there working really hard to support their children academically and emotionally.

We appreciate you. 🧡

"When teachers started class by welcoming students at the door, academic engagement increased by 20 percentage points and disruptive behavior decreased by 9 percentage points—potentially adding an hour of engagement each day." 🔥 #HackingSchoolDiscipline https://t.co/peWlcNLB2m
