My vibe is feeling overwhelmed but also like I’m not doing enough.

Taylor Swift’s music video, where she looks down at the scale where it says “fat,” is a shitty way to describe her body image struggles. Fat people don’t need to have it reiterated yet again that it’s everyone’s worst nightmare to look like us.

Teachers do pre-assessment & planning for instruction for our students but PD facilitators do not do that for us. We will all receive the same instruction no matter our needs. That irks me.

Recovery from mental, emotional or physical burnout can take years. Even if you start prioritizing rest and you start living a softer life, your nervous system remembers the burnout and/or the trauma. Understanding this and being gentle and patient with ourselves is key

Use the curriculum with fidelity, but also differentiate for all learners, but also the curriculum doesn’t actually teach the skills, so you must supplement that information, but also make sure you’re done each unit in the allotted time… 🙄🙃 #teacherproblems #teachertwitter

The use of fear to control children is so ubiquitous that most adults don’t even realise they are doing it. They’d never describe what they are doing that way. But in so many different ways, the children feel it. Here’s what it looks like. 1/

When a teacher posts about the unrelenting exhaustion we are experiencing it doesn’t mean they don’t like teaching, don’t like their students, or that they have terrible admin. It could just mean that the weight of everything over the last few years is exhausting without healing.

the holy trinity of desk drinks is a big water, a two-hour-old iced coffee and a flavored seltzer.

[Brian Aspinall @mraspinall]

I used to think the volume of the classroom dictated the quality of the teacher. I now know learning can be loud and can be messy. Loud classrooms aren’t necessarily managed poorly and quiet ones don’t always indicate learning is happening.

“make sure you allow yourself to recover from burnout ✨” with what time. with what resources

Just found out about donkey nannies, which are donkeys used to carry newborn lambs down the mountains for seasonal grazing.

It’s not a coincidence that two highly feminized professions, teaching and nursing, are in crisis.

[nina @ninagrewrites]

being confrontational has a bad reputation. as long as there is respect, there is nothing wrong with wanting to address an issue head-on so that no resentment or unaddressed contempt builds up. you threaten your own peace of mind by allowing feelings to fester without release.

[Dr. Annie Andrews @AnnieAndrewsMD]

My position on “late term abortions for convenience” is similar to my position on brain transplants. I don’t have one because they don’t exist.

[Lindsay Arnold @Lindsbinds621]

expecting teachers to implement a curriculum they’ve never received training for is bad practice

[Philosophy Of Life @PhilOfLife_]

Be teachable. You’re not always right.
