As a teacher with a chronic health condition, I wish that administrators, parents, students, and coworkers understood that if I don’t take off 1/2 day every 1-2 months for appointments and treatments, I WILL end up in the hospital and miss weeks, instead.
What are the dumbest school building design features you have personally witnessed? Here are my top three: 1. Not just open plan classrooms, but open plan purpose-built science labs: so rooms designed for practical work only that were completely open, with a corridor running…

TEACHERS…all of the blame and none of the recognition. Kid is absent often ⤵️ What is the teacher doing about it? Kid doesn’t like school ⤵️ What is the teacher “ “ “ ? Kid is a bully ⤵️ What is the teacher “ “ “ ? Kid is awesome & respectful ⤵️ The kid has great parents!
Dear Superintendents, Let teachers wear jeans any day they want. Khakis don’t make students respect us, how we treat them does. Don’t overthink it. Love, Dr. Tarver
The restrictions that big districts put on their principals are probably good for the weaker ones, and terrible for the stronger ones. Too much red tape and "alignment" between other buildings makes it so leaders can't turn the ship around and address the real problems they face.
If “just anyone” could walk in off the street and teach school, there would be no shortage of substitutes, because it would be the easiest job in the world Ask any sub how easy their job is on any given day. Teaching isn’t for “just anyone”
Big take always from the fluency round table: 1. Fluency instruction should be a daily priority, especially for students who can decode, but read dis-fluently. 2.Repeated reading is the most evidence based fluency intervention, but it is unclear if is the repetitions or total…
Report Card Season Thoughts: I would be a more effective and efficient teacher if I had office hours once a week. Like, a full day to catch up on everything. I am just perpetually behind
Lawmakers sharing Martin Luther King Jr. quotes today should post this one and call for an increase in the minimum wage: “It is a crime for people to live in this rich nation and receive starvation wages.” —March 18, 1968 to striking Memphis sanitation workers.
First year teachers are burning out. 5 year teachers are burning out. Veteran teachers are burning out. We must change the narrative. But how? We feel guilty when we leave after the Ss. We feel guilty if we don't grade/plan over the weekends. We feel guilty but need change.
The face says it all.. 😂

The Lord is the same yesterday, today and forever! You can have peace knowing that the Lord will be your constant through every trial and victory you go through. Who's thankful to have a friend in Jesus?!
Love this. All of these should be packed into PK12 curriculum especially if we want to help kids overcome some of the barriers they endure. #changeagents are #teachers ✨
A former superintendent of mine challenged me to reflect on the following questions between Christmas and the New Year. I’d encourage you to do the same.
I greatly enjoyed this conversation with @measuredmom. And yes, it is deeply perplexing that many education academics claim that social justice is at the heart of their work, but look the other way on improving reading instruction.

Do ‘brain breaks’ help students learn? Find out what the evidence says in a new Nomanis Note by @maddy_goto and me. tinyurl.com/246axnx3
As a teacher with a chronic health condition, I wish that administrators, parents, students, and coworkers understood that if I don’t take off 1/2 day every 1-2 months for appointments and treatments, I WILL end up in the hospital and miss weeks, instead.
@adamboxer1 1970s built open plan for ‘team teaching’. Complete with floor to ceiling single glaze windows on 2 sides. Glass roof lights. Freezing in Winter. Boiling in Summer, noisy at all times. No space for displays or even storage. It looked cool and totally failed as a teaching space.
What are the dumbest school building design features you have personally witnessed? Here are my top three: 1. Not just open plan classrooms, but open plan purpose-built science labs: so rooms designed for practical work only that were completely open, with a corridor running…
The blue check “educator” on here (since 2021) saying “everything in education is broken, follow me” has a big old agenda.
Just got called on in my union rep role. Whether organized or not, it would seem that some of the teacher's in the building are rebeling against always having to do coverage on Fridays because so many people out. People are just not showing up for coverage.
4th straight day of testing & it is like we have left the world of education altogether & only exist in a dimension where robots relentlessly mine for data
I’m going to try the local library for the first time for baby storytime. They make you get there at least half an hour early to get a ticket to reserve your spot. Don’t they know families with babies are flying by the seat of their pants and might barely make it on time?
There are 33 days left in this school year and I am ready to quit. I have never seen more disorganization and asinine decisions from Admin in my entire teaching career. This is ridiculous.
@tetheredtoed1 I can’t tell you how many parents I have encountered whose children are an utter nightmare and they expect me to “fix” them while they do nothing to solve the problem at home!
I'm not sure people fully understand how demoralizing it is to be in a school with poor behavior (b/c the adults can't be bothered to instill systems and norms and high expectations) and weak crayola & edutainment curriculum (again because the adults can't be bothered).
I am glad some districts are working on teacher shortage by offering bonuses, increase starting salary etc for new teachers, but please don't forget the amazing veterans already on staff, or there won't be enough people to hire regardless of what is offered.
Did any other autistics absolutely hate PE when in school?
We've always had SEL in schools. It was called recess, play, & classes like Music, Art, Physical Education. But they have been reduced or removed to spend more time on testing, & then we wonder why students lack social/ emotional skills & misbehavior that comes with lack of it.
I don’t know which teacher might need the confirmation, but you were right not to bother doing any work today and focus on your well-being instead. #edutwitter
