End of the year, and a friendship was broken. My heart is shattered. But, for my own mental peace, I need to let go.

4.5 days of the school year left. One more year in Oman done. Time flies.

Who gets it? 😂 🤣

42. 💜

Students going to our Inquiry board to look at the learner profiles to add to their projects on communication. I’m amazed at how much they use the board to connect to their learning. #pyp #pyp chat.

I’m using this incredible book as one of my mentor texts for my UOI : HWOO: communications connects people and communities. My boys are going to make their own version of this book. They’ll do the illustrations but also choose a color and use their other 4 senses to describe it.

Looking for any ideas for an end of unit celebration for our communication UOI : forms of communication, changes to communication over the years… any help would be appreciated! PYP ConnectEd #ibchat #pyp chat #pyp

Read most of these.

I’ve been so exhausted with our workload. The problem is that leadership think it’s not “too much” to give us paperwork that is completely unnecessary but it eats into our planning and collaborative time. Sigh.

It’s all about the coffee.

By the end of this week I’ll have worked 12 days non stop. How is this okay? I’m exhausted and I feel like being this tired I’m not giving the best to my students. How is this fair to them? #exhaustedteacher #whatismylife #internationalteacher

A 4-day school week for students is perfect for ALL involved.

TEACHERS can use the 5th day to catch up with their insane workload!

STUDENTS can catch up & participate in ANY off-campus, extra curriculars they’re interested in without the wildness of a minute-to-minute schedule.

Officially certified in IB Category 2. Achievement unlocked! #pyp #pyp chat #ibeducator #internationalteacher

Note to self…

I did a thing.

And at the blink of an eye, winter break has nearly come to an end. Time to head back home, back to Oman. 🇴🇲
