@pernilleripp Right there with you! I cried when one of my 7th grade boys brought me a new pink pen because he knew my favorite one died. He said, I got you purple too❤️
This makes me want to buy the remaining books I don’t have on this table, and have all of my students read them. Banning books is stupid! If you don’t want to read something, don’t. It’s that simple.
@pernilleripp I am so sorry you’re feeling this way. We’re feeling it too here in MI. I think we were under the illusion that we would be back to school as “normal”, but it has been anything but.
If you are planning PD for teachers and concerned about “filling the time” that’s a big problem. Teacher time is too precious. If the time isn’t purposeful, just give it back to the teachers. There is far too much to do.
Whatever team drafts Alabama's Najee Harris is getting a special person. Today he threw a draft party for kids at the homeless shelter where he lived for several years growing up. He told me it was emotional the first time he went back to visit. @kron4news#NFLDraft#RollTide
Veteran teachers are the backbone of education. They’ve endured all the reasons most teachers leave the field. They also survived the latest programs, initiatives, & testing. They have much wisdom, experience & expertise if leaders are willing to listen. Value & appreciate them!
