@WardProWords@TolentinoTeach We had an ant in my class last week. Just complete breakdown of normal procedure. They were still talking about it hours later. It. Was. An .Ant.
Our WHEELS UNIT teaches students how to ride a bike, scooter, and other wheels during #PhysEd! We’re excited to see our students confidently and safely exploring community parks, trails, and neighborhoods this summer using the skills they built in PE! 🚲

Posting a daily question to inspire reflection and connection.
We all learn from experience.
We all are human.
What might we all learn from our experiential existence?

This New York Times piece is worth your time. Here’s what is happening, as simply as I can put it.
Back in January, Trump sued the IRS, an agency he controls, demanding $10 billion over the leak of his tax returns a number of years ago.
IRS lawyers did their jobs. They wrote a memo laying out the defenses that could beat the suit, including the fact that Trump filed too late. His own lawyer was in court when the leaker pleaded guilty in October 2023, more than two years before Trump sued.
The Justice Department never showed up to court. Never argued back. Never used the defenses sitting on their desk.
The judge got suspicious and ordered both sides to explain whether they were actually opposing each other or just colluding. The day before that brief was due, Trump dropped the suit.
Same day, his Justice Department announced a $1.776 billion taxpayer-funded “anti-weaponization fund.”
Trump gets a formal apology. The IRS agrees to drop any audits of him and his family, even though a 2024 Times report found a loss in an ongoing audit could cost him over $100 million.
The acting Attorney General, Trump’s former criminal defense attorney, picks the five commissioners who decide who gets paid. Trump can fire any of them. Proud Boys and Oath Keepers are not ruled out.
This is the most corrupt thing I’ve ever seen from an American president.
Where in the hell are my Republican colleagues?

After Nixon’s “I am not a crook” tax scandal, the IRS mandated that the president’s tax returns be audited yearly.
Every president since Nixon (except Trump) publicly released theirs.
With the new DOJ settlement ending his audits, Trump is essentially announcing “I am a crook.”
Why is it called ‘pickleball’?
In 1965, Joel Pritchard of Washington State was bored on vacation.
So, he and his friends made up a game using a badminton court, table tennis paddles, and a perforated plastic ball.
