@GovTimWalz For the love of God, please help our schools from the over bearing litany of regulations pushing teachers from the classroom & students choosing to not be in school (as too many go online). This, from a teacher in Mankato, and former colleague. Set your priorities! I have more.

@Tim_Walz And do what?

Don’t complain and make hurtful “jokes” and nicknames if you’re not sharing ideas and solutions.

Just as I do at MAPS.

@Tim_Walz I have yet to see any affect of “Trump’s’ cuts in my classroom. However the State of MN has not shown any increase in my science budget in 5 years and continue to only add more demands-have you seen the “learning” new teachers must jump through to earn their license?

Hiking on a lake in #Duluth, waiting for a #wintersnowstorm, and eating at #burgerparadox while also plowing out my parents home have made for an adventurous and relaxing Saturday! A welcome change of routine!

Family, fun, and the North. Loving it all. #happynewyear

We OBSERVED the melting of table salt, sugar, corn syrup, Crisco shortening, and a paper clip! Students were to record observations and 3 QUESTIONS. In the end we linked types of CHEMICAL BONDS to the substances. #mapsready #mankatoeast #bonding
