On Tuesday, 2/21/23, this student violently attacked his teacher aide at Matanzas HS.

When deputies spoke with the student, he explained that he was upset because the aide took his Nintendo Switch away during class.

Student was described as 6’6”, 270 lbs

Word of the day is ‘spuddle’ (17th century): to work ineffectively; to be extremely busy whilst achieving absolutely nothing.

Just curious:

Teachers, please RT this if you teach your students about things and topics that are NOT in the curriculum or the textbook you use because you know it’s very important that they learn it.

Y’all. If you are moved by someone, by someone’s work, by their friendship, anything — TELL THEM. You don’t know how much they might need that ounce of encouragement, to feel noticed, to feel like their efforts are worthwhile.

Teachers are tired of receiving ‘expert advice’ from someone NOT in the classroom.

The message of unconditional positive regard is, “I care about you. You have value. You don’t have to do anything to prove it to me, and nothing’s going to change my mind.” https://t.co/gVjcAB2bQh

1. More teachers are leaving teaching now than ever before because society has shown how little they value teachers.

2. Fewer students are majoring in education because of #1.

3. There are not enough substitutes to fill the positions because of #1 and #2.

Again, technology is not a teacher, it is a teaching tool. If teachers were replaceable, books would have replaced us centuries ago.
