@LisaSikessldd@educator4ever36 This is frustrating. Extended time is meant for those who are working on the assignment and need more time for completion. It's not an open-ended option to do nothing in class and cram all work in during the last week of the term when they realize they are failing.
@educator4ever36 The list of accommodations for Ss can get so long. To keep track of what goes with each student is hard when 75% of students in a class may require accommodations. I redesigned all of my lessons and delivery to simply provide all options to all Ss, just to cover my bases.
@ModestTeacher A teacher sold local "ads" on tests back in 2008 and it made national news. I used this article in my #entrepreneurship classes for a while!

Well, hello again, Twitter/X ๐
Itโs been a while. Iโm dipping my toes back in and seeing how it goes. Looking forward to reconnecting with some familiar faces and seeing what Iโve missed!
@puj_rit@FixingEducation But with the SS reform, I bet the retirements will increase even more now! Any teachers who worked prior careers or had side jobs long enough to earn SS benefits are looking at a completely different retirement now. It has me reconsidering my remaining time in the classroom.
@ModestTeacher Many of us have practical industry skills that make us great teachers. I'm a business teacher with a BSBA in Accounting & Computer Info Systems, an MBA in Marketing, an MEd in Instructional Technology, and 7 years of experience in the field in addition to my 19 years of teaching!
