@RogersHistory I am a school Counsellor and I totally agree. I have total empathy for the teacher position. It is not the same at all and I am constantly amazed that parents or health practitioners outside of schools don’t appreciate this fact. Being 1-1 with me is not the same as a classroom!

[Willow @curiouswillow17]

@LeslieLaud Wonderful! Do you have any schools in Queensland that we could talk to? We are on the Gold Coast which is near Brisbane.

Who uses SRSD Writing to learn? It has apparently a great research base but I don’t see much mention of it being used in classrooms. I am in Australia though. I’d love your thoughts!

@St__Evens @Miss_Snuffy I’d be happy for my son to experience silent corridors and not be bullied and to receive the excellent teaching that this school provides for the students.

[Willow @curiouswillow17]

@locdeducator Do you consider how it is for people in isolated roles? There is no recognition in our school of the Counsellor role except when included as a teacher! If you are feeling unrecognised then adding to other people not getting recognised does not help.

[Willow @curiouswillow17]

@mbcourtneyedd I like the modelling for new things. Some of the best PDS have us doing things like the students. It helps my teaching!

[Willow @curiouswillow17]

@Brad1968 Super disappointing! Some teachers often don’t “like” things that students need and/or they lack the right knowledge to make the best choices. Busy work or colouring activities can be privileged over quality teaching of reading, writing and maths.

[Willow @curiouswillow17]

@BooPeeDooPeeDoo @P_A_Kirschner Disagree!

[Willow @curiouswillow17]

@TylerABallard @adamboxer1 Yes agree. I have worked as another professional (psychologist) and with others in health, in accounting, in manufacturing etc. We all worked hard and did work and PD outside our hours. I totally agree teaching is hard and we work hard but so do many others.

[Willow @curiouswillow17]

@DrMPaff I am with you Michael. Also a school psychologist with a team focused on improving Tier 1! We don’t stay quiet about this and in many ways it is the support staff driving changes to Tier 1 as we clearly see we can’t intervene our way out of it!

@ehanford @plthomasEdD SOR is pro teacher knowledge! Teachers deserve knowledge about the best ways to teach and for students to learn. It is anti-teacher to deprive. Also, this knowledge is for all teachers public or private.
