#FLedchat is a virtual meeting place using Twitter. Educators across the state of Florida come together on Wednesdays at 8pm EST to discuss the topics of the week.
There have been memes floating around that imply that teachers don't want to return to the classroom after summer. While we enjoy our break, is this the message we really want to send our students? #FLedChat
I think it is possible to not be happy to see Summer end and still have a positive attitude about school starting. time off is great no matter who you are. #fledchat
A1: It depends on how negative it is. Just lamenting the end of summer vacation is different than "dreading to deal with the kids". Two very different messages. #FLedChat
** Q3 **
If the only thing our students and parents see us (as a group of educators, not the individual) post are gripes about "the system", how do we (as individuals) convince them we actually want to be in the classroom?

Since so many seem to be busy tonight, we are going to turn this week's #FLedChat into a slow chat. Answer them as you get a moment.
See you next week!
Agreed! Many take this time to recharge, visit families/family time, etc. and still manage to return to school with a great attitude and ready to engage with Ss & families. #FLEDchat
