@WheresAndrew about to go to sleep under the only sky of a cloudy night. Enjoy your walk and we'll catch up when it's light outside. Night!

Remember when.... We spent all those evenings crying & laughing over musical theater? Tonight's the pay off. @gahsmta

@ReinkeKristi oh that's harsh. You should get 2x of credit that year! Traveling is hard.

@ms_greencvhs @ecasey77 @SamMandeville @CoachHenkel @cheffernan75 @Ms_Mielke Group Google projects are my new best grading friend!

[s hemenway @mshemenway]

@ReinkeKristi make me jealous. What's your schedule?

[s hemenway @mshemenway]

@ReinkeKristi This year I'm co teaching 2 classes in the middle of the day. It's like a fairytale. (I can also go give bathroom breaks)

[s hemenway @mshemenway]

@ZahnerHistory Every test we give has "I will score 85% or above on my test". Most struggle to pass.

@SamMandeville That's what we said. Budget cuts a few years ago changed the game and it hasn't reverted.

@GeoSpiegs @SamMandeville That's the face of every new teacher until June. We're tired and it's starting to show.

@ReinkeKristi 1-8 ave 47. 9th is 45 (we lose 15 min/wk that period.) add before/after school duties. You either sink or swim w/ your team.

#worldgeochat a6 grade authentically- give open ended ques that show understanding and not a rote answer. It will help build PBL climate.

[s hemenway @mshemenway]

#worldgeochat the average load at my school is teaching seven classes (usually the same subject) & an advisory & a conference & lunch a5

[s hemenway @mshemenway]

#worldgeochat a5 grading/returning papers would be easier: 1) more than a conference pd/day taken up w/ meetings 2x wk & 2) longer classes

[s hemenway @mshemenway]

@JohnHRaby Because our TEKS spiral, it gives us the opportunity to reteach and test. It's kinda nice.

[s hemenway @mshemenway]

@ms_greencvhs Can you post a copy of a sample?

[s hemenway @mshemenway]

#worldgeochat a4 Campus went to a retest not correct test system this year. It's been more challenging for students (& teachers to buy in)

[s hemenway @mshemenway]

#worldgeochat a3 for grins: can everyone post their states SS standard? It would be fun see differences. Texas: https://t.co/HvRazi7wt3

@TheSwish We were told to have more paper based tests because data had to be collected. :( but we were also told to increase PBL projects :)
