Teachers, want to take something off your plate? Put HW in the trash. Especially for elementary, let students go home, run, play, and enjoy being a child. And read a little after playing. Then they come to school recharged instead of stressed out and you will too!

Teacher Tired. Few people know tired like teachers. In fact research found that teachers make more minute-by-minute decisions than brain surgeons, and that includes running around all day with a room full of children! You DESERVE a "self-care summer"!

"How many times have you noticed that it's the little quiet moments in the midst of life that seem to give the rest extraspecial meaning?"

The more I see teachers having to build their own partitions or buy their own “COVID-19” supplies, the angrier I get.
They 👏🏼 shouldn’t 👏🏼 be 👏🏼 buying 👏🏼 these 👏🏼
School districts should be providing.
The government should be funding school districts so they can provide.

It’s a slippery slope to provide online learning for young children as a substitution for play and inquiry. Don’t diminish the value of play for true learning by succumbing to pressure to placate adults in lieu what is best for kids!

Don’t ask school leaders and teachers if they are happy to “have time off”. No, we are not happy and our hearts ache for our students. We want to be at school. We want to see our kids. We want to meet their needs. We want our normal back. #COVIDー19 #PrincipalLife #BetterTogether

It’s not confusing.
You tried or you didn’t.
You put in the time or you didn’t.
You put in the effort or you didn’t.
You stuck with it or you didn’t.
You learned or you didn’t.
You practiced or you didn’t.
You got better or you didn’t.
You tried again or you didn’t.
