This Wednesday please share any healthy (and quick/easy!) recipes you have, favorite exercises, or other health tips.  Pictures and links are definitely welcome.  Teaching is a job that takes a lot, and sometimes teachers tend to put off taking care of ourselves.   Please use the tag “Wellness...

ahamoments asked: I'm in a classroom with ages 3-5. They like to dance, but only to upbeat music. They're currently obsessed with the cha-cha slide. Can you suggest any appropriate songs for them to dance to in the morning?

If I had a timesheet...
heysnix: it would say Tuesday: 7:30am-8:30pm; Wednesday: 6am-5pm. If I had an evaluation it would say: Taught her heart out to the point of tears. If I had the chance to talk to anyone who says I’m overpaid I’d say (both calmly and confidently): Live in my shoes for a day. You’ll change your mind. Can we get some Tumblr Teacher hugs over here?

Most of the teenagers surveyed (69%) said...
