I am a teacher. But when I create materials for my students, I'm a writer. When I keep a class engaged, I'm an entertainer. When I give them advice for their future, I'm a mentor. That's why teaching is such a great profession: You get to do so many different things! #education
Since our Tuesday announcement, @azedschools and @DonorsChoose have funded over 1,300 projects and allocated over $1.4 million to educators.
This demand highlights the incredible need for sustainable state funding for student resources.
What a HUGE disappointment this turned out to be. After HOURS spent considering how to best use this opportunity and talking with students about what reading materials they’d like to see, I’m informed the state did NOT set aside funds for every teacher as we were led to believe
Teachers are the experts on what their students need to succeed academically, and our partnership with @DonorsChoose exemplifies that. In Prescott Valley, an elementary teacher purchased reading comprehension kits and flashcards to support her 2nd-grade students' literacy skills.
I’m not looking forward to seeing all the republicans use Dr. King’s name in a tweet on Monday after they’ve passed laws that ban educators from talking about racism.
Man. Looking back on it I had no business going to university at 18. I actually think my mid twenties would have been the perfect time. I would have picked a different subject too.
Experiencing so much pressure to make a life altering decision like that as a teenager is a lot.
Stay indoors. But also return in person. Wear a mask. Not that one. The expensive one, that you can’t find. Take rapid tests. Which you also can’t find. But if you find them, don’t buy them. Rapid tests don’t work. You need PCR. There are zero appointments in your area.
We have less than 24 hours to stop the execution of @justice4julius, an innocent person facing execution in Oklahoma on Nov. 18. @GovStitt is the only person who can stop this. Contact him now 405-521-2342 (press 0) https://t.co/DedyPyolpi #Justice4Julius
Last time I was depressed, couple weeks ago, I documented a lot of my thoughts. Now I’m in a better headspace, looking at what I wrote just confirms how badly depression alters your entire perception of life and yourself. It’s actually scary.
