Kids these days... ARE INCREDIBLE! 😊

When the students are a better example and more compassionate than the adults.

@brandonkparise @MonteSyrie I did this a few years ago but kids sometimes put old/ fake phones in the holder 😑

What a powerhouse of an entertainer!

Of all the things @taylorswift13 inspires, this is up there for me as a business teacher! 🤩

@marmalade2015 @jmacmcgrady @FixingEducation I hear you... as I said, every school situation is different.

[Ali Ant @YourPlanningPal]

@marmalade2015 @jmacmcgrady @FixingEducation I agree w/ different expectations for rigor but in my experience as an elective teacher, I have many more preps... 2 or 3 in core vs. my 5 or 6. I think there are pros/cons to every position and they could be debated forever. Of course all school situations are different too.

We just did bell work on globalization! Such a great example and discussion starter...

Who made the decisions that led to this and why? (Spoiler alert: $$$).

Is this the best way? (Depends on goals, I'd say no but would love to hear students' thoughts!)

Here's a great classroom discussion prompt:

[Ali Ant @YourPlanningPal]

@MonteSyrie Aw, I started reading Narnia to my 9 year old last night and he told me it reminded him of his teacher reading Charlotte's Web this past school year. What are the chances I see this tweet today? 😊

[Ali Ant @YourPlanningPal]

@teachmbw Right there with you! I definately have a stash of random product packages in my classroom! 😆

[Ali Ant @YourPlanningPal]

@howie_hua How very "on brand" of you to say! 😀

[Ali Ant @YourPlanningPal]

By 2013, Toms was reportedly making $250 million sales in a year — so, what happened?

@LCHSMrFleming @MrsCarlottaCarr PEOPLE gather and learn in both places. That was the comparison. It's insane to think that it's the responsibility of people in these learning environments to protect themselves. That was my point. I'm all for banning assault weapons over locked down schools and libraries.

I think about this every time I decide to NOT enter a grade for something. It usually just puts kids who aren't doing well further behind... been thinking a lot about grading practices lately...
