Being a parent definitely had a huge impact - seeing how they reacted to classes, made me change my teaching

My church family and baseball bring balance to my life which makes me more focused at school.
I'm a firm believer that we can't ask Ss to do something we don't do ourselves on a regular basis.
Definitely has been as it is a customized PLN
Lessons plans are very narrative. they have to appeal to multiple senses. they are often connected to other narratives.
Definitely will help you! Having kids of your own gives you even more empathy
Actress = animated engaging lessons and read Aloud
Also worried about teh more rain we get the harder it will be for furniture truck to get up our 600m dirt driveway
It was before comics got cool again. So it was amazing.,

The wide, varied collection of "stuff" that makes us who we are - frames who we are as teachers. My topic pick? Motherhood ...
Struggles growing up have helped me be more compassionate and appreciative. And the myriad of jobs I had when I was younger.

I used to work as a politician's aide when i was younger. learnt lots of skills in dealing with bureaucracy
hard to explain to some. Empathy, comfort w/ being assertive, accountability, clear expectations, relationship bldg
I bought into the idea of politics early in my career; now I know the "politics" are often just excuses.
plus there is a bit of mystery when you say 'I spent 6 yrs in prison'
yes either a power trip or a tool for avoidance
Ok friends. Great to start my day, but I've got an early meeting with a parent today so I need to scoot! Have a fantastic day!!

Being parent made me realize, I wanted 2give all my Ss the same possibilities that I had the opportunity 2give my sons.
I believe anything that slows down Ss and helps to enhance "think time" is beneficial to everyone in the rat race of tech.

Any tips for accomplishing this. I have similar goal, at times it feels so daunting.
Curiosity gets me going. Curious abt everything.When tchrs/Ss do something I ask ??s, they R willing 2explain.
So true! Wish I would have made it more of a routine earlier in my career.
Such a great trait and one we need to cultivate in our Ss and Ts.

Connecting with other educators helps so much. We can't teach in a silo. So much to learn from others.
I do love that as a teacher of game design any time I can afford to play games is directly related to my teaching.
Reasons like this make teaching the best profession. Teaching and learning should be joyful, adventurous, & memorable.
Good morning I farm a little on the side. It's amazing the ideas that come to me on a tractor.

Sounds like tip of job-description iceberg; you're going to need more characters :) Happy Mother's Day, 48 hours late.
You're trending from where I sit! Woo hoo, ! :)
Good morning pals! My time as dancer & dance T, IT Manager, elementary teacher, and forever learner help me be a better educator!
Good morning long time since I've had time to stop by
Travelling and learning to see the beauty in all cultures helped enforce embracing diversity for me
I would say being a parent has helped me be a better teacher - I understand parent pov now
love that Jessica. Our past experiences always shape us.
relating is so important to relationship building. Do you share some of these stories with Ss?
Good morning, Paige! So lovely to see you this morning!!
Working with children at church! A great way to build community and spirituality 👍🏻
Yes!! And reminds us of perspective. My daughter once said"you have no idea how hard it is to be a kid"
And being a teacher has made me a better parent
Interning for my Congressman in DC was a great experience for my social studies students.
Any big changes/differences in your approach as a T because of having that parent perspective?
Adorable!!!! Love that your animals help lend perspective on your teaching. :)
yeah definitely works both ways.
Yes I worked in the office of a politician. Learnt a lot about dealing with bureaucracy
Wow! That would be a monumental experience for sure! Any big takeaways from that time?
being a non-baker has helped me to keep trying to learn new things no matter how many batches of cookies I burnt. 😁
for sure, I had a complete change in thinking about homework.
What a great quote! "The colliding of my passions informs my practice." (Paraphrased)
hey Jessica 😃We started the new term yesterday.. How about you? Good to cross paths online this am
working with live animals and kids are equally unpredictable.
Wow! Plugging right along, then. What courses do you have this term? Busy here, lots of shifts in district & team.
This inspires me toward analogy or metaphor week of topics! "Working w animals is to kids because..."
So glad I got to see you all this morning! Thx for helping me start my day on the right track! Happy Tues! https://t.co/WC0DXZql9Z
I know what you mean. I am passionate and love what I do. Never seems like a sacrifice. More like a calling.
