I have a *ton* of work to do—grading, planning, administrative stuff, etc.—but I had meetings and worked full days every day of my spring “break” so I am going to throw open the windows, clean my house, and hopefully clear my head.

@Masks_show_love Sending love and light. 🤍🤍

[Amy Jamieson @acwjamieson]

@krryhgn Exactly!! Maddening.

@BridgetGelms I’ve never codified it, but now that you mention it, I have one or two assignments that I emphasize should take a specific amount of time and a cursory glance shows that those have higher completion rates than others. You’ve inspired me to give this a try!!

I encountered the middle part/side part discourse in October? and made the decision then: as someone who resisted in middle school—the worst time of our lives—I can take it now, too. I don’t have the bone structure. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Not loving how condescending Tony Romo is being towards Bills fans. Sir, I defended you in the Jessica Simpson days. Don’t make me regret it.

It’s news to me that I don’t work in education. 🤷🏻‍♀️

What a year for my season tickets to be on ice. #gobills

Your Spotify 2020 Wrapped is much less interesting when you’re a dance teacher.

@krryhgn Yes, it has the new branding but it’s still walk-up only. My friend lives on Washington so I’m always tempted when I’m headed home to the EV.

@krryhgn I keep meaning to ask if this is the Dairy Queen I go to now, on Elmwood in Kenmore? I think about it every time.

@WahooDawg No rush—though that sounds amazing! I’ve seen really great ones for social media and heard about a built-in for Microsoft 365 but haven���t checked further.

Question for those who give video feedback on student writing: how do you make it accessible and still reap the time-saving benefits? I can’t reconcile it in my brain, but I desperately want to (for both the efficiency and the pedagogical rewards).

[Amy Jamieson @acwjamieson]

@WahooDawg For sure! Saving time isn’t my *only* priority, but I’m teaching 4 different classes right now (2 of them new) so it’s taking precedence at the moment! Certainly not at the sacrifice of learning. I’m starting to wonder if it’s worth it to switch just for the novelty, though!
