Spanish 2 & 3 made Tíos de Nadal. Whether they get beaten or not is up to the Ss. #tiodenadal #cagatio #catalonia

@KHS_SCA @KellamHigh So much spirit this year! So many creative “containers.” Shout out to the young man with the charcoal grill, and the one with the kayak. Now that’s dedication!

@HeyArchy Simply put…Keep doing what you’re doing! You appear to be approaching this analytically, and from a place of logic. I’m inclined to do the same.

[Kelli San Souci @nlytenu]

@HeyArchy Same here. I started teaching 100 years ago.😂 (And by that, I mean before the days of high stakes testing 👽👽👽.) The learning curve has definitely been steep for me. But I not only embrace change; I welcome it. (1/2)

[Kelli San Souci @nlytenu]

@HeyArchy (2/2) However…Replacing old pedagogy with the new does a disservice to all stakeholders. (Read: Don’t throw out the baby with the bath water!) There’s a gray area inside which the old and the new can peacefully coexist, if not change things for the better.

[Kelli San Souci @nlytenu]

@HeyArchy In a perfect world they would put forth their best effort, even if there were no such thing as grades. (That’s every teacher’s dream. Right?) That’s not to say it can’t be done; rather that an undertaking of this magnitude will require time. (1 of 2)

These TikTok challenges are out of control! The milk crate challenge? The toilet challenge? What’s next? The self immolation challenge? 🤦‍♀️

[Kelli San Souci @nlytenu]

TFW you realize all the students from your first year of teaching are in their forties 😱

[Kelli San Souci @nlytenu]

Music is my happy place.
