The mission of BFC is to empower participants to make a difference in education by engaging in consistent reflective practice in a supportive community that inspires and challenges one another.
About a 20 minute drive for me. Mostly highway. On the way in I think about what is on the agenda. On the way home I try and leave it all behind. When I get home I am home, not at work #bfc530
I drive 18 minutes to school.
One red light.
Back roads. Farms. Animals, both domesticated and wild.
A beautiful drive each morning (unless you get behind the bus!!)
#bfc530
My commute ranges from 40 min to an hour which I feel is way too long. I took the train before kids and I loved being productive on the ride. Now I survive by Howard and he can never retire #bfc530
I’m about a 20 minute drive, by my fully electric car, to school. I leave my house at about 7:45 am each morning. I’m always ‘entertained’ by other drivers on the road! 😊 #bfc530
2 minute commute, less than a mile away, and I drive through the only four way stoplight in town. I'm the first to arrive and I'm assigned the last spot in the parking lot. I walk in by cleaning debris from the lot that can puncture tires. #bfc530
Morning #bfc530
My commute is 40 mins mostly highway thankfully😎
I listen to @pandoramusic
or my own. My bff was suggesting podcasts over the weeek end I might get into....
For many years I had a 35-40 min commute one way. Many a book on tape. Yes i just said tape. 😉 Now it’s 8 minutes and just enough time to listen to my fave Pandora stations (currently The Hip and Goo Goo Dolls) to carpool karaoke. #bfc530
My drive is ~30mins in the morning leaving between 6:30-7am. 🚗 Listening to @cbcradio or podcasts like @GTeacherTribe.
Drive home can be more like 45 minutes with the traffic through downtown. 1hr+ in a snowstorm. 🌨
#bfc530
Good morning everyone. I travel by car to school less than 5 miles away. I think God was looking out for me as a single mom when I got this job.#bfc530
For the DC area I have a "good" commute. About 20 minutes in the AM, 35-40 PM. Work in VA live in MD, so don't need to fight my way into the city. I occasionally get ambitious and bike/metro to work then bike home. #bfc530
Good morning #bfc530 My commute is 10 minutes if I leave by 6:45. After that it's 25 - 35+ minutes. I listen to podcasts or just get lost in my thoughts.
Commute to school this year is a breeze compared to the hour ride I had last 3 years!
Entertainment depends on the day—sometimes music, sometimes sports talk radio, sometimes quiet time thinking about the day ahead & in the last 2 weeks I’ve started listening to podcasts #BFC530
So many different entertainments over the years. Radio shows. Classical music. NPR.
My latest 18-minute diversion: I listen to a Broadway show cover to cover for a few commutes. Mostly things I haven't listed to in their entirety for years.

#bfc530 I live half a mile from school! 90 second drive! On nice days, I walk, and it takes 10 or 15 minutes, because I do not walk on any busy streets. I am so lucky!
I usually drive in, about 20 minutes, about 10 miles, half highway in traffic and half side streets. I listen to my @calm app and @voxer book group chat in the morning! #bfc530
Good morning #bfc530. Chad from NY here. I have approximately a 30 min commute. Mostly backroads. Lately I have been listening to audiobooks on @audible_com to entertain myself on the ride.
I drive about 30 minutes through farms, forest and finally suburbs.
On way i listen to news radio to catch up on overnight events.
On way home I listen to podcasts #bfc530
My commute is normally around 25 minutes in the picturesque mountains of NC. Some mornings I just want to stop and take in the post card worthy moments. #alleghanync#GodsCountry. #bfc530
My school is approximately 8 miles from my house; my commute time varies from 15 min to 90 minutes. I drive b/c I have to drop off my 2 rugrats at school! My morning Pandora channel is “Rise and Grind!” #BFC530
Good morning!! Angie, pre-K -4th librarian from Michigan. I haven’t been up early enough to catch this chat in months! My commute is 25-30 minutes and I live for audiobooks! ❤️ it’s the only way I get extra reading in. #bfc530
... and I love stopping at my fav @Starbucks & chatting with the baristas~ so kind and they keep this 2nd grade teacher soooo caffeinated ☕️☕️☕️ @wheeler_laura#BFC530
Well for the lot of you who got a message from me last night im not going to post my new commuting dreams just yet. But I'm jealous of all you " 20 minute ppl " #bfc530
This morning my commute will be 3 hours - heading back to town from the beach after a long weekend. Heading out the door now! Have a great Tuesday everyone! #bfc530
We started late due to spring break in mid April. In charge of all tech for district therefore will be dealing with PARCC for the next 6 to 7 wks. #bfc530
This month is Ottawa's bike to work month and I'm driving half of my 20km commute, parking at a park and biking the other half. 🚲
Takes 1hr & gets me outside & active daily. Started yesterday.
#bfc530#AHappierCommute#ottbike
Oh boy...I live about 50 miles from school and it takes me just under an hour. I try to leave around 6:15. Podcasts, audiobooks and the poor driving of others entertain me during my journey. #BFC530
I am def blessed with my commute. It used to be 15 but then they moved me even closer to my house. My girls played sports and we live in the next town over so I went to every game. #bfc530
I live in Boston and have a great commute - 40 minutes each way. I have to leave before 6:30 to avoid the traffic. I listen to NPR or a book on tape. #bfc530
#bfc530 GM Everyone! I have a 40 minute commute by car. I listen to podcasts, Bible app, or audiobook. It relaxes me and takes mind to a different place.
I will say in the fall when I come upon Garrett Mountain with all the fall colors, I’m reminded of how cool NJ can be. Plus I love the fall and the start of school😎

I just finished this book on my commute yesterday. I’ll be starting another one this morning. Any recommendations for some really good nonfiction audiobooks? #sixtybooks#bfc530
I drive my car about 25 minutes to get to work and have to be there around 7. As for entertainment, always podcasts. Mostly education podcasts. #bfc530
I live two miles from school but yet the road is too narrow and busy to ride my bike. So narrow some times the grass on the side of the road gets the fog line painted on it. #bfc530
Well I use this information in my math class to talk about variability, so, there is a positive out of this frustrating situation #BFC530#bostondriving
Rae's being released. Her life is at stake at this point. Her right kidney is at 65% and her car repair is needing a down payment. She missed a treatment because she couldn't get there and then the next day got worse. PLEASE RT and donate whatever you can.

My commute (by car) is 10-15 mins. I leave my house around 8:15 am. I usually only have time for a few songs either by radio or through my iTunes playlist. I have never lived so close to work and I enjoy this very short commute every single day 🤩 #BFC530
Ok Twitter people. Let’s make dreams happen. Grade 1 class in Florida looking to connect with all states. We need NH, CT, WV, DE, UT, VT, ME, KY, MI, MS, AZ, WY.
Who can help????

My commute is about 25 min ... as a 1-car family my husband drives me to work ... we listen to talk radio, confirm travel arrangements for evening, & I distract myself from the traffic with word games on my iPad 🚗🚕🚙 #BFC530
My commute is about 35 minutes. I get there around 7:30-8:00. I listen to audio books. Currently reading Celeste Ng @pronounced_ing Little Fires Everywhere. I dabble the podcast Someone Knows Something @skscbc when between books. It’s about cold cases. #BFC530

HERE YOU GO #VEGASBORN FAN'S, THE BEST GOAL OF THE KNIGHT CAME FROM YOURS TRULY "WILD BILL" WILLIAM KARLSSON IN OVERTIME FOR THE 4-3 WIN OVER SAN JOSE.
When I drive, it takes me 25-35 minutes. I love listening to « Freakonomics » or « Revisionist History” podcasts. When I bike, it takes me 45-50 minutes depending on whether I’ve had coffee😄 #bfc530
My commute isn’t long if I drive, maybe 20 minutes. My playlist depends on the day. Some days are P.O.U.S. (podcasts of unusual size), NPR or some morning zoo show. If riding bike, then it’s a 45 minute ride and that’s normally combo old school hip hop/comedy mix #BFC530
I drive to school, 4.5 miles takes about 10-15 minutes (there & home); depending on the time I leave & how many lights I have to stop for. I listen to @KLOVERadio it keeps me in a positive mood. #BFC530
I want to make it east during the fall. I live in the front range in CO. Going to school I can see the top of Pikes Peak down in the Springs, about 75 miles away. Going home I see Longs Peak in Estes Park. The snow capped mountains are great. #bfc530
My home school is 10 min drive away. As instructional coach this year, there’s no “regular” day/drive so I rely on Google Calendar & Waze app to keep me organized/get me around town. While driving, I love singing along to my Apple Music playlists! 🎶 #bfc530
Good morning friends! It’s 5:30 somewhere, right? I live about a 10 minute drive to my school. I crank the tunes and sing loudly and badly all the way there! #bfc530
