Teachers, read this thread. Why you should leave work at school. 🙌

I posted a tweet yesterday about teachers leaving school-work at school and it is generating a lot of noise, both objection and affirmation.

Let me summarize the objections and rebuttals here.

To repeat, teachers should be leaving their work in the building. Here's why:

It's been 10 days since the last day of school, and I am finally JUST SITTING. (waiting for my new bed to arrive so we can build it, but sitting for now..) What a whirlwind.

Last week's schoolwide field trip to the Creighton Baseball game.

The OPS teacher exodus needs to be a wake up call.

Teachers need systemic changes, retention bonuses, and more building autonomy.

Instead, teachers are getting ice cream, thank you notes, $5 gift cards, and jean days.

America needs teachers 🙌 We're teaching all the things and doing the best we can. 🥰 But we're hanging on like my crumpled affirmation signs. 😂 #15Days

@DeeSTEM_Teach I think the biggest thing is that she TRUSTS us, listens to us, and takes unnecessary things off our plates. The casual dress code and treats help too... 😜🙌 @JessicaLoghry

[Sara Messer @Mrs__Messer]

We giggled over this, and the kids did a morning warm up writing a silly story or poem to go with it.

It would be so much more useful for teacher prep programs to teach the neuroscience behind behavior rather than traditional classroom “management”.

Future builders, collaborators, thinkers!

Today we giggled about this "herding cats" video..A silly anecdote to show how damaged organs have to work harder.

[Sara Messer @Mrs__Messer]

@OPS_LoganSupt @OmahaPubSchool So great!! More districts should follow suit.

[Sara Messer @Mrs__Messer]

When multiplication math puzzles are so fun the kids don't want math to be over.. 😍🙌
