I never imagined I would feel comfortable presenting to my peers, but @kswla has become such a big part of my professional identity and my heart, and this is now something I look forward to so much all year long. Today was such a great day!
Ready for a day of fun and professional growth at the @kswla UnConference! Iโll be presenting about #GalleryWalks at 3:30! Hope to see you there ๐
Weโre having a ๐ชจ ๐ โ๏ธ tournament for Spirit Week and I told one class about @languageley โs sneaky trick. Now every challenge I overhear in the halls theyโre doing it to each other. ๐ #strategy
Iโm subbing for the choir teacher during my plan period today. Her sub plans are to watch Anastasia (itโs our musical this fall), which just so happens to be one of my favorites from childhood. Iโm not mad about it. ๐
Iโm excited to present again this year and connect with more of my @kswla colleagues! Hope to see you in Emporia next month! #unconference24#langchat
I just set my alarms for work hours and my heart is so sad. Donโt get me wrong, Iโm so excited to get these kids on Thursday, but I love my summer routine. #backtoschool#wlteacher
I go back to work on Monday. I havenโt stepped foot in my classroom since the last day in May. What monstrosity awaits me? #teacherprobs#goodbyesummer
@Eduventuring04 16-18 is my sweet spot. 22 can break me. Sometimes itโs only a matter of a few extra bodies that can really rock the boat. One year I had 26 in one of my periods and they were the death of me every single day.
To anyone who thinks teachers make too much or donโt work enough: My brother is a first year teacher who spent countless hours preparing this summer. He just finished his first day with students. Itโs 8:43 PM in his time zone, and heโs still at work.
