Hi! My name is Veronica Valladares, majoring in Early Childhood/Special Education. I am a pre-service teacher at Bowie State University.

As the teacher shortage worsens, the priority of school districts should be taking care of teachers and staff. Without them there will be no school for children to attend.
I agree and I have also thought they should be taught more things they will need outside of school such as credit scores/cards, how to do taxes, and what interest means when applying to be a homeowner. Also sex education and bringing back home ec courses!

When teachers say that leaving teaching is the hardest thing they ever had to doโ believe them, because it is.
Why? Because when a teacher leaves, you may see it just as someone leaving a job, but we see it as leaving something we love, and letting down students and families.
This is what we mean when we say one job should be enough. And it's why the @aftunion launched a task force to address these and other issues and to hear from our members what they need to do their important work. ย https://t.co/c5RZoaWzYp
There is a lot of PD that focuses on curriculum.
There is a lot of PD that focuses on how to use tools and platforms.
Rarely is there PD that shows how you can run a student-centered, differentiated classroom using the tools and curriculum you have access to.
Even though it's the last full week of #womenshistorymonth, don't let this be the last time you celebrate girls & women in your @dcpublicschools classrooms! @pbsteachers has so many free lesson plans you can explore to continue inspiring young women! https://t.co/GDmZBTkdNm @PBS
I think it would be beneficial for the students to get a break and get outside or other activities for half an hour or maybe get breaks every hour for 10 minutes so they donโt get tired and bored of the task at hand. #BSUTechEdSpring22
