I have to document somewhere that I bought these Birkenstocks my first year of teaching. I think they saw their last day this week when a chunk of the cork sole broke off in the library. 17 years!! 2 classrooms, 2 libraries, 3 schools.

For YEARS I thought I was burnt out, and in some cases, I was. But perhaps in a more real way, I’ve been demoralized. I work with amazing people, and am so blessed to have job. But autonomy and creativity can be quashed by outside forces and platitudes. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Yes, I agree! Focus on libraries of places of choice and multiple viewpoints rather than banned books.

@Caamp my 7 year old son and I love your music. He’s convinced that “All The Debts I Owe” is autobiographical Can drop a note to tell him you aren’t actually felons?
I’m watching Dawson’s Creek for the first time and it’s everything I want it to be. Here is the objective truth. Dawson is the worst character on Dawson’s Creek.

I used Edublogs for years under my county’s subscription. Big mistake... because now they no longer have a subscription. So I migrated 6 years worth of content to Wordpress

When did @WordPress become so hard to use?!?? I don’t cuss, but I want to! It used to be intuitive but I’m struggling. Not that my content is anything amazing, but I’ve used a blog kind of like a professional portfolio for years, so it is important to me. [gif of irritated woman]

I read every book I was assigned in HS, but that didn’t mean I liked them. I was forced to read Tess of the d'urbervilles for AP Lit, despite the fact we were supposed to be in self-selected lit circles. And my classmates in the lit circles didn’t read the book

We all wrote papers on it, discussed it, but there wasn’t anything more than surface level engagement. Educators need to decide if reading is something we do to kids or do with them.

Some of my “flawless book” favs... All the Light We Cannot See, Piecing Me Together, The Serpent King, Relish, The Glass Castle, Americanah, The Nickel Boys, and Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe.
tell me a book that’s absolutely perfect in your eyes...like a book that you genuinely believe has no flaws QUICKLY

Any other school librarians feel sad when you are co-teaching and the classroom teacher turns off his/her/their camera?

This is a take on TPT that I can get behind! Though your school librarian won’t ask for payment AND will do her/his/their best to ensure that the information they find and share is done ethically with respect to copyright. And we’ll most likely co-teach and co-assess with you.

Does anyone know who manages the @steak_umm Twitter account and can they collaborate with me to teach media lit to freshman English classes?

Came here to find foolishness in my replies. I am rushing to into an interview and this is the last time I’m saying this. Thanks.
To top off my 2020, I have poison ivy from doing yard work I didn’t want to do. Poison Ivy. It’s almost December! I was wearing long sleeves and gloves, but my wrists and neck were uncovered. 😩

For Thanksgiving I deleted Facebook from my phone and went on a run.
