American history is regularly told from a colonial sense, but there are many more stories and perspectives that are often left out of textbooks and the wider discourse.

Addressing the teacher shortage shouldn't involve lowering criteria to be a teacher--it should involve supporting teachers, paying them, and providing the resources needed to best serve students.

@MarlettDon I find this easily applies to other areas of life too: health, jobs, relationships, house hunting and I'm sure others. So important to have this perspective!

@raysingletary1 Including establishing boundaries with yourself!❤️

[Gabrielle Boltz @Queenof4thGrade]

Yes!! This. I've always told my students they are allowed to have their feelings, but let's make a plan to communicate and navigate those feelings in a healthy way.

@MarlettDon I think high amounts of intention and effort *can* lead to high impact, but you need to have set expectations to hold yourself accountable to reach that desired outcome. It's not enough to be an idea factory, you also need a plan to execute and reflect on progress.
