Me to husband: When our son is 15, we will be 50. Oh wait, haha you will be 52!
Husband: yeah and who do you think looks better- a 52 yr old man or a 50 yr old woman?!
Me: …… 😐

If we employed a 4.0 GPA grading system but based it on our 100 point numeric system, students who did not submit assignments would be given a negative six.
Our 100 point scale is archaic. Recording a zero on a 100 point scale for a missed assignment makes no educational sense.
We have great kids at our school. And you have great kids at your school. I think it’s important for educators to be optimistic about their students... to have high expectations for their students... and to believe in their future.
Jon went to @Braums_Inc to get ice-cream & tried to get cookies as well. They said he had to go inside. He went inside and asked why he couldn’t order in the drivethru due to Covid. The cashier asked if he was married/ if so why his wife doesn’t make him cookies. #canyoubelieveit
We don’t always get to pick and choose the moments where we make a difference. We don’t always know the conversations that students will remember. As educators, we should never underestimate our impact. We might not know when...and we might not know how...but it’s always there.
You don’t have to be an administrator, grade level chair, or department head to be a leader in you school. Your title doesn’t matter. You just need to care about making it better.
Passion and commitment can transform any culture.

If you have high expectations and you scaffold, does that mean you are lowering your expectations?
Great question for discussions with teachers. #OASCD20@okascd#Oklaed

There are students everywhere… who never liked a subject until they got that one special teacher. So it doesn’t matter what your subject is… you have the potential to be that one special teacher.
We all have a limited perspective. We see things with the lense of our own experiences and with our own biases. It’s important to be mindful of this reality and engage others with a sense of humility. Give folks the same benefit of the doubt that you would like from them.
Everyone’s telling scary stories for Halloween so I’ll talk about something that happened to me when I was a kid because hey, trauma never gets old.
