Student learning is no accident!
Current Events. It’s been done to death. And I get that. What I’m going to share with you is not really about current events. The context just happens to be Current Events- but it could be anything… (so insert your own context!) It’s about academic discussions- conversation. Do kids really know what that is these days? Chances are they do… Read More
Using Sentence Stems and Explicit Instruction for Classroom Discussions Teaching discussion skills can be daunting! You know you want productive, positive discussions… but how do you get there? Here’s some of what works for me! Body Language & Politeness Matter Eye Contact: looking directly at the speaker lets them know they have your attention Inviting Posture: Facing your body toward… Read More

Let's Talk About Sleep So many of us suffer from back to school dreams and sleepless nights prior to the start of school each year. If...Happy First Day to Me!!!
I met some of my new students via Google Meet. We had a school wide assembly that way too. It was W E I R D- but also somehow familiar and comforting. I was excited to welcome fifth graders to their first year of middle school!
These kids are going to have a great year- and I am really looking forward to teaching such small groups... could it be that maybe THIS is the year we prove that class size makes a big difference??

Please... please come right in!!
You have SO many fabulous ideas- it sounds like *maybe* you’d be great at this job.
So come on over. Really! Turns out, we don’t have a SINGLE person signed up to sub this year. You’d be perfect!!
It pays $90/ day... but honestly it’s NOT about the money. I mean, you said it- “teachers have to LOVE the work.” And, who doesn’t LOVE a full day of 12year olds? Amiright?!?!
You’ll want to bring a few masks... because it gets hot and there’s no A/C... and the doors have to stay shut and locked (for fire code). And bring sanitizer to be safe, because the teacher’s bathroom (with the good sink) is upstairs on the other side of the building, and you really can’t make it there AND back during passing- but you can totally get there after school or on lunch! But, if you want to eat, just bring something you eat with a fork, so you don’t have to wash your hands! There isn’t time for both.
So excited for you to join us!! I’ve been dying for a chance to learn from you. I’ve been dreaming of this since you started ranting about how easy teachers have it! FINALLY, you can show us how to do our jobs better, Nancy Know It All!
