Doing research for an upcoming event, and these statistics blew me away. In the US, we have lost 567,000 teachers since the pandemic. In 2010, 30,000 students were studying to become teachers, & that number, in 2017 was down to 13,700. Something must be done. #thoughtoftheday

This "groundbreaking study" is like, "When we ask kids to monotask on something that requires deep focus (reading) on a device designed to steal their attention with multitasking and entertainment, they don't do as well." Um, no shit, Sherlock. 1/ theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2โ€ฆ

As a teacher, this is what I want to say to SOME parents: Stop making excuses for your kids. STOP IT. Teach them to earn things, not demand things. Hold them to a higher standard. Challenge them. That way, when I try to challenge them, theyโ€™ll know we both expect it.

Introverts hate fake people. The two-faced. The sweet-tongued. The show-offs. People who are full on the surface but empty inside. They care about people who are real. Simple. Humble. And above all, bone deep honest.
