@MC_literacy @nearpod I'm glad! Overreliance on technology is a staple of sci-fi! #irony #blacknirror(pod) #jk #lovenearpod

@msu_meredith There's a writer in that kid. Way way in there, past the inappropriate and hurtful exterior. Hopefully he can find it w/in himself #802TFTF

Sticky notes own massive swaths of precious real estate on my desk. I can't stop......I just can't. #thestruggleisreal #802TFTF

@ryanerin720 More time to modify and personalize. Keep what's good and toss the rest, if the price is right. #802TFTF

[Tim Langford @MrTimLangford]

The entire Google suite went down just before my focus class started. All was fine, but the toughest part was keeping my cool. #802TFTF

The gasps as a student reads the word "Damn" within The Diary of Anne Frank will never stop being precious. #408TFTF

Prepositional phrase activity using fail compilations? Have I died and gone to heaven? #408TFTF

My big takeaway from Danny Martinez talk: resist urge to scold student interjection by dissecting em as creative uses of lang. #sounditout

Interesting dilemma arose at plcmnt: would students score better on tests that are an hour a day for 3 days, or one 3-hour block? #408TFTF

@msu_meredith We're new at this, we'll figure it out.

[Tim Langford @MrTimLangford]

@Alyssa_Basel I'm sure my answer will be different in 5 years.

[Tim Langford @MrTimLangford]

@Alyssa_Basel Id say plain inaction is the problem. Make the scolding meaningful. Talk 1on1. (Begrudgingly) put the time in. #408TFTF

[Tim Langford @MrTimLangford]

@kat_steg Interesting. Were they chatting with friends instead or truly quiet/isolated and still did nothing? Any solutions u see? #408TFTF

[Tim Langford @MrTimLangford]

Heard about a brief, yet serious bullying incidence in our class. This still happens. In general, I think teachers need to step up #408TFTF

@GOgreenGOwrite Thx for getting us in! I found his modesty and "take" on his own success and stature to be v cool and humanizing of showbiz
