I finished my reading goal for this year! The last time I actually finished a reading goal was years ago! 🥹 Big shout out to audiobooks. I wasn’t much of an audiobook girly until recently! #BookSky

I’ve decided to use Bluesky as a place for keeping track of my reading + bookish thoughts! Here’s my next read: #BookSky #CurrentlyReading

Those countries tend to value community, whereas the US is ranked highest in individualistic thinking. We are capitalistic in nature, & public transportation would compete against oil & auto industries, who pay political leaders to support their goals & profits. At least, that is my understanding.

Because of oil and auto companies. I watched a short documentary about how other countries have high speed public transportation, such as in Europe and Japan, yet America doesn’t because they want to sell cars. Capitalism and profit over people’s basic needs, I guess?

Love these tips and how Donna uses terms kids understand to reroute their focus! 👏🏼

Happy Friday! 🫶🏼✨ It’s been a very exhausting week but with lots of great moments (including Okinawa Soba and a Disneyland field trip with teacher friends!). Can’t wait to sleep in though! 🥲

I don’t think people understand what “banning phones from classrooms” mean. My school banned phones from classrooms too—students are strictly required to keep their cellphones in their backpacks. It’s helped SO MUCH in regards to behavior and engagement.

People don’t ask each other what’s crack-a-lackin like they used to

Current lesson: is teaching historical fiction in the classroom valuable or dangerous? Let’s see what my students think by the end of the week! #EduSky

I’m a middle school teacher but I love third graders! 🥹💕

February Reading Wrap-Up! 🫶🏼✨ #BookSky #StoryGraph

Happy Friday! ✌🏼 Next week’s EQ is: Should we watch the movie The Boy in the Striped Pajamas? Today, students reviewed Hitler Youth and Hidden Children, then watched the movie trailer to look for inaccuracies. 😬 Looking forward to hearing their opinions!
