This time of year, it’s common for students to ask why we are still doing meaningful learning and real work. A student mentioned today that they weren’t doing much in their other classes and wondered why we were still so heavily invested in mine. I wanted to quickly nip that in the bud before any more dissent developed, so I spoke briefly but firmly with all my classes about how they only get one chance to take 7th grade World Studies.

In years past, I probably would have shifted into cruise control, making life theoretically easier for both myself and my students but not anymore. Here’s why.

The idea of wasting a day, a lesson, or a learning opportunity because summer, a break, or the weekend is approaching only works to their detriment. They will never get this year back, not in this class, not at this grade level, and not in this content area. They will likely never again have the opportunity to learn about issues like food waste or deforestation from an expert in a structured setting where I can explicitly build their knowledge in long-term memory. There’s no way I’m going to let that opportunity be wasted.

They can’t afford to waste this time.

Here’s what we’re starting tomorrow as we bring our case study on the hidden costs of clothing our world to a close. The pedal is all the way to the floor.

On May 12, 2021, I began a streak of getting at least 10,000 steps a day. That streak remains alive, making it five full years of at least 10,000 steps for the last 1,826 consecutive days. I don't post this here to boast, but to say that if I can do it, anyone can.

I hope to tweet in 2031 that the streak is 10 years (3,652 days)

Not everyone needs to run an ultramarathon.
There. I said it. And I’ve run 220 km non-stop.
Ironman. Marathon. Ultra. These are incredible feats — but also expensive sports, demanding enormous time, money, and sacrifice. And when it’s over? A shiny medal. A spike in likes and comments. Then life moves on, until you do the next one.
The real question is — what are you training for?
If it’s health, here’s what actually works:
— 20 to 40 pushups a day
— A 5 km jog you can sustain for life
— A monthly trek to stay connected with nature
— An occasional half marathon to remind yourself you can still challenge yourself
That’s it. That’s the formula.
Eat clean. Sleep well. Live in the moment. Don’t get carried away by your wins or crushed by your setbacks.
Fitness was never meant to be a performance. It’s a practice — quiet, consistent, and deeply personal.
The best version of health doesn’t trend on Instagram. It just shows up every single day.

Hey @espn, just curious why the baseball game with 2nd and 3rd ranked teams in the nation is on ACC extra while the game with the 10th ranked team against an unranked team is on the main network channel…

When students are anxious/depressed, one method of remediation might be TEACHING THEM TO DO SCHOOL BETTER. Just got this message from a mental health professional.
