The sad truth about the teaching profession:
In any one day you can have kids lie to your face, parents emailing you about what you ‘did wrong’, admin upset about something, a coworker not helping, and more.
And all the good you are doing just isn’t enough. #teacherproblems

If you're teaching Shakespeare, watch it on mute first and let students comment on what's happening.

They get stuck on the language. Have them solely focus on the action and then add the language in after.
Plus, fun inference practice.

Kids want to tell you about their lives.
They really do. Like, really. They want you to listen, to take interest, and to make comments about what they say. Do that. #RelationshipsMatter
