Been thinking that this esports battle I’ve been on since 2018 is at a a stalemate. AD said in a roundabout way that esports isn’t going to be recognize in the sporting realm.
Support for what I do comes off as not genuine. Good job, keep it going. Yet no one shows up for my kids.

Another PD day in the books. We were introduced to techniques from 2001 that we should implement to increase ownership in student work.
Interesting…

Let see if this #teacher can get some help. My school library has a manga thief and I’m reaching out to see if anyone can come in clutch with a purchase or two. I want to surprise them and restock them.

#teacher thought of the day.
First PD day is tomorrow and we are being introduced to personality test for students.

But thinking about it why should we let a test dictate what our students want to be in life? Some students are still discovering their personality and next move..

How do you win a battle that people don’t want to see you win?

Did it again with the puff vinyl and made stickers as well.

Whatcha think?

Did a little something today. Working on some branding and being creative with my expertise.

Gonna be honest. It’s been a bit tough trying to be creative as of late. It’s like I told the wifey I feel exhausted.
So going thru the steps and trying to make time to get a sketch in here and there.
Only a few more weeks of being in the classroom and hopefully an energy rest.
Enjoy these sketches

Another One! Back at it with the Spotify Sessions Sketch Cards—Kendrick & Khaled dropped, so I had to draw them! Who’s next? 🎶✍️

Sketch cards inspired by my Spotify! Today: Karol G & Musiq Soulchild—because my taste has range. Art, esports, and good music! #SketchCards

Took a break from a project & let my Spotify DJ inspire me—Bad Bunny & Anitta popped up, so I sketched them! Who’s on your playlist? 🎶✏️

I didn’t make it to WonderCon this year, but that didn’t stop me from getting into the spirit of it! My son and I took a trip back in time today, watching the classic Fleischer Superman cartoons—Inspired by that, I had to break out the sketch cards and put pencil to paper!

No, thank you!

A1: I am a CTE teacher from California that’s been in the scholastic esports scene since 2018.
Low-key the Atari hooked me as a kid, but Super Mario on the NES started the love of video games.

Thank you!

Make work day in the classroom. So I had across the spider verse playing as background sound for the class. Also I drew this.

Sweet! It’s something that I’m currently dealing with and trying to teach my kiddos to stand up for themselves and be proud of our program and what we do for our campus.

A4: I'm still the new kid in the group and appreciate the community and the resources.
Has there been a convo on bullying?
#LevelUpEDU

It's definitely a cool group

A1: I love that we are all gamers to some extent and making that connection with peers and students builds an awesome community.

A2: 2018 when I was asked to take on esports. Seeing a classroom full of kids needing a space locked me in.

A4: I use this concept with my son. A lesson in temper control. He tells me I don't understand what it's like to lose at a game nowadays and get upset/mad, but I lost at Mario like crazy, and let's not mention Zelda. That is learning temper control and breathing to relax.
#LevelUpEDU

So true!

A little afternoon procreate fun.
