If you have a friend who thinks teaching is easy, do the following when they are telling a story: - Interrupt them every 30 seconds asking to use the bathroom or unrelated questions. - Raise your hand and shout things out. - Talk over them. - Ask them to say the story again.

Really excited to start sharing my personal experiences as a second-year teacher. To all two of my follower- I hope I can provide some insight. 😉

If "loving my students" is my thing but "eliminating racism, heterosexism, and other forms of injustice" is not my thing, then what I have is a crooked and dangerous illusion of a thing.

I’m so happy my students don’t know about the music I listen to.

On another note, I don’t really know how to expand my “brand” as a second-year teacher in a rural area, but hey, I’ll just use my sense of humor and cross my fingers.

Teachers and parents, it’s time to start pressuring Missouri to follow our neighboring states. @GovParsonMO, do the right thing. Call off public schools for the health of children and staff.
