I might have gone overboard but: I once took the whole hallway and cut paper icicles that hung the entire hallway. I cut big circles and made giant snow people, students did snow-related work.Also made green trees-kids made a bird with a wish for the new year on the back.

I put the template I use for the birds as a free item on TeachersPayTeachers. Super easy project but I will warn you. When you read the wishes you will probably cry. teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Winter…

There are 500 tons of food (high calorie biscuits for children) in the USAID warehouses that are set to be burned tomorrow because there is no staff left to distribute it. We paid for that food. It is ours. NOT trump's to destroy on his silly whims. FEED THOSE KIDS!!

Oh my gosh! Found in a city park. This is new best practice. Wow.

When President Clinton banned assault rifles in 1994, mass shootings dropped by 43%. After Republicans let the ban expire in 2004, they increased by 243% — please don’t tell me bans don’t work, because I don’t want to hear it.

Hate mongering makes hate.

Hey Official Fred Meyer - we get our groceries delivered. We got two cartons of rotten dairy dated Jan 20 (as in chunky and nasty). Nowhere on your website/reciept can I find a way to inform you that A. I need a refund and B. you are selling rotten food (what store it came from).
