First day back in my classroom to set up for the year. Gotta get the wires hooked up so I can blast music & get the room thrown together. Tell me why, @oldgodspod.bsky.social you gotta hit me with the never skip track Heavy Feathers to start my day out? I can't put up bulletin boards while crying!!

July means #clearthelist is back! Be on the lookout for teachers sharing lists and, if you can, help a teacher out! Like and share posts if you can't sprinkle and know that teachers everywhere thank you!!!https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2ZR8RJC1472DJ?ref_=wl_share #clearthelists

Heya @thewhitevault.bsky.social I loved the 10 year celebration episode and all the congratulations to #FoolandScholar but now I feel compelled to demand justice for the impeccable VAST Horizon. It is quality creepy sci-fi and doesn't deserve for people to sleep on it!!!

We did something similar during Covid for kids who were missing lunch at school, and if you've known me a while you know that food insecurity in children is something that really tugs at my heartstrings even more so since starting fostering. Please share this wide and far and if you can, help! <3

But you need to listen to the ones I suggest cause:
1. I need someone to squeee with.
2. I am the older sister and therefore know best.
3. My taste in podcasts is amazing
4. How else will you know if I'm falling in love with the wrong kinda character??!?!?

Bruh, I was looking for your naaaaaame not your initials. . . . amg

Just followed a ton of my podcast obsessions that I hadn't already thought to follow here just to share with my sister and realized that *she* isn't here yet. . . wtf Sestra!!!

My home, my classroom, anywhere I can.

The way this little guy can just fall asleep when he allows himself and doesn't fight it.
"I'm gonna close my eyes til I fall asleep."
And he's out before I finish the first lullaby.
I love that I get to be part of his safe space. #fostercare

Ok people. I have done the impossible. With the exception of one podcast that was added recently , I am actually caught up on all my podcasts. I need some suggestions. These pictures show all of the regular audio dramas I listen to. I am looking for recommendations of other audio dramas.

Last full day before winter break. Everyone is hyped, but look at these awesome 5th graders working in teams to solve clues and survive another "break-out box. 1/2 day to go!!!

This weekend was the Resource Family Christmas Party. I love how much these two have grown their sibling bond. While the tween may occasionally push back, their bond is magical.

It's so nice of my dream having people repeat things I only kinda hear or doing an instant replay of a key point in a scene when I miss something. But also I know to hand-wash glasses cleaning cloths.

So...it deffo feels like December in 5th grade and my poor TGIF board looks a mess, but I do love that Friday arrival work of reflection with my fantastic 5th graders.

First day back after Thanksgiving break. 3 weeks until Winter break. Trying to keep the calm as much as possible in my corner of the world.

I listen to a couple dozen regularly and can recommend a bunch but @oldgodspod.bsky.social is deffo the one that took my interest in audio drama and turned it into an obsession.

Still getting my sky legs but I've already found many familiar faces in the teaching world. But honestly spending most of my time hunting down my favorite podcasts.

Just figured out the whole starter pack thing after finally being able to spend some time here in the sky and what a great way to fill up my feed with amazing educators!!!

Peeking out into that #edusky realm and looking for other elementary teachers making their way around these new parts!

Heya Bluesky #teachers Got a question for the hivemind. How hardcore do you hunt down grownups for conferences? After the initial sign up request, how many times do you message/call/email to try and get them to have a conference. Trying to let go of my need to get 100% participation.

Public place. . Also you know me... Early to bed, early to rise, makes a

Children are loud.

Look, I need a public place to tell you what podcasts to listen to. . .

19 year elementary teacher here. School was my safe place. A place of positivity, support, and affection. A path that led me out of where I was. I wanted to be able to be that positive path-finder for others.

"Believe me. We’ll not be able to avoid the things in this world that wish to harm us. You and I walk a path fraught with devils in many a skin. We can’t allow fear to halt our progress." - John

Relistening to s5 of @malevolent.bsky.social and this quote hits harder now.
