@psychedupnorth@EducationUnbc@wilkinson_77488@acadience I just want to 2nd how important your teaching on literacy was, as a grad of the previous cohort. Now in my 3rd year teaching (one on an LOP during the program), taught first and second language and both elem and hs. Nothing has been more valuable than knowledge of lang and lit.
This is an author tweet not a teacher tweet, but what if... grown up picture books?romcom picture books? magical picture books? 1200 words max and beautiful illustrations? Does this exist? I think in an era where our attention spans are lower this could be a lovely art form.
@Frozented@hankgreen who fucking cares if Hamas gets some food packets and clean drinking water if it means millions of innocent civilians also get food packets and clean drinking water???
@Pasquall2@hankgreen your tax dollars are literally CURRENTLY going to the bombs Israel is using to kill Palestinian children. tens of thousands of innocent children. why is that use of tax dollars on foreign lands fine but not aid to starving civilians???
@MamaWeasleyy "Just horrible that I have to actually exercise" is the entire vibe. You mean it actually does help my mental health and chronic pain despite being the most annoying advice for both on the planet??? Why.
@Lawmamabear1 Keeping our 3 yr old home for ~3 extra weeks as we are expecting a baby in the next few days.
If you're able to keep them home any extra time I'd say do it. Last year we were ill with not covid all of January.
On return - consider carageanan nose spray at Starr and end of day.
@MamaWeasleyy It's honestly painful to watch. There are so many real and simple ways we could reduce spread if this hadn't turned into a "both extremes are making the situation so much worse" situation.
@mctheatreela@luckytran@michael_hoerger If it helps to know, I taught all term as did my partner with many known exposures and we got through without catching it. We ran hepa filters in our classrooms and used carageenan spray 2-3ร daily. Both teaching a 2nd language so masks came off at times.
@carolinadog81@MamaWeasleyy@PTF_org Really rest. Like really as much as possible. Use an iota-carageenan spray 3+ times a day. Keep very very hydrated. Rest even more.
I had it early in this pregnancy, asked for a little extra monitoring, and am now 36 weeks - textbook pregnancy.
I hope it's smoothe for you.
@LaMariposaAzul@MamaWeasleyy Just reiterating what others have said. Have done shots in arms for c19 and flu since my daughter was about 2. No concerns. Read a couple books or watch a couple videos beforehand to prep if helpful for your kid. Plan something fun after. Acquire a cape, call them a hero, etc.
Tell struggling older readers that it isn't their fault. That 95% of kids can learn to read with appropriate instruction. That the system is at fault on this one.
Don't let them believe it's a reflection of their intelligence when there is a system that harmed them.
@BrookesPubCo @TIE_BC Yes and, some students would prefer to do their therapies without what might feel like an audience. Students might find a standard classroom very stimulating and like one to one time. Students should have the option for sure. But needs vary (and sometimes conflict).
