I cannot love this enough

Kids pick up on more than we realize. They will notice our mood… whether it’s a good one or a bad one. And they will notice our example… whether it’s a good one or a bad one.

A moment of silence, please, for my fellow geek educators...Nothing is wrong, we are just all out here working on Disney+ launch day..

Boys are ~ 3 times more likely than girls to be diagnosed w/ ADHD & the avg age for boys to be diagnosed is 7. (~4 million ages 6-11). Anyone wonder if sitting in desks long periods, less recess, and very little physical activity might be adding to this?

Now is a great time to remind all Alabama educators to exercise their right to vote in the next gubernatorial election. 😡😡 al.com/news/2019/12/c…

I can’t love this enough!

Our education system forces 7 year olds to sit in a desk 6+ hours a day and we wonder why our graduation rate doesn’t improve and why kids want to drop out at 17. “For a small child, there is no division between playing and learning.” ~ Penelope Leach thebestschools.org/magazine/death…

I am unapologetically going to brag on my rockstar wife! Great job! Happy that this will benefit the kids in our community!

Good story by Woj here about @Joeingles7...

Let’s ALL keep this in mind...this has implications far beyond this shutdown!

Stop trying to be what some ed celeb says you should be, and just be the “you” that kids can trust. They can see through fake anyway. Kids have unparalleled BS detectors.

Why is this a thing!?!?

The fact Governor Kay Ivey just put the Alabama State School Board work session on reopening schools into recess because she was hungry tells me all I need to know about a state plan for reopening.

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

We can't say Maslow before Bloom or we value SEL and then limit or remove recess, unstructured play, and classes like Music, the Arts, Physical Education, etc.
