#WeirdEd I built a space for us call Well THAT Didn’t Work (#wellthatdidntwork) to share failure https://t.co/gtfgerKAjH

@shadow_uzumaki #WeirdEd Howdy howdy howdy

MissShuganah Oct 26 @ 10:01 PM EDT

Top of the 7th inning. Anyone being weird tonight? #weirded

mrburkemath Oct 26 @ 10:01 PM EDT

#WeirdEd It will be quite ironic if it succeeds @TheWeirdTeacher

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator Oct 26 @ 10:02 PM EDT

#WeirdEd It’s for more than that, but you’ll have to read the blog. I am NOT starting a chat for it. Too many edchat, not enough time.

MsLafferty Oct 26 @ 10:02 PM EDT

Hello! #weirded

BlueCerealEduc Oct 26 @ 10:02 PM EDT

It's been awhile... do we go around the circle introducing ourselves and saying how long it's been since we've been weird? #weirded

shadow_uzumaki Oct 26 @ 10:02 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher Can u combine it into #WeirdEd ?

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator Oct 26 @ 10:03 PM EDT

#WeirdEd So tonight let’s talk about what burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp and how that feels.

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator Oct 26 @ 10:03 PM EDT

@shadow_uzumaki #WeirdEd Can I? Tonight. Do I wanna normally? No.

btcostello05 Oct 26 @ 10:03 PM EDT

#WeirdEd Please introduce yourself and tell us what song you'd be playing right now if your Alexa was working.

shadow_uzumaki Oct 26 @ 10:04 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher #WeirdEd Gotcha. It'd be nice if I can contribute to the blog tho,but no opportunity to sit down/write 1 presently. :(

brianrozinsky Oct 26 @ 10:04 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher Who knew the bully pulpit was so flowery? #weirded

shadow_uzumaki Oct 26 @ 10:05 PM EDT

#WeirdEd Alexa?

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator Oct 26 @ 10:05 PM EDT

@RoniOHara #WeirdEd That would an interesting thing to have in your classroom.

BlueCerealEduc Oct 26 @ 10:05 PM EDT

Blue Cereal - "Canajoharie" (TMBG) if my, um... Alexas was working. (no idea what that is) #weirded

MissShuganah Oct 26 @ 10:06 PM EDT

Read the blog post @theweirdteacher I like how openended it is and how honest you are being. #weirded

SlpSummer Oct 26 @ 10:08 PM EDT

Hi #weirded! I'm a school speech/language pathologist (speech therapist) in CA and I would listen to a podcast.

#WeirdEd Q1 I got lots of praise for being open about a recent struggle. If we like it, why aren’t we also sharing?

mrburkemath Oct 26 @ 10:09 PM EDT

#WeirdEd Live from New York, Chris is in my house. And "The Night Has 1000 Eyes" has been playing in my head since I heard Bobby Vee died

innejf Oct 26 @ 10:09 PM EDT

@MsLafferty I hate being a foregone conclusion. Shhhhh #WeirdEd

MsLafferty Oct 26 @ 10:10 PM EDT

A1. Ask me again when I'm not probationary #weirded

theMrMoulden Oct 26 @ 10:10 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher Q1 while it's refreshing, it's also scary as hell to admit mistakes in today's 'open' world #weirded

shadow_uzumaki Oct 26 @ 10:10 PM EDT

#WeirdEd I'm seeing @slwindisch and @msmusiced having same profile pic as @mrburkemath and it's confusing me lol

MissShuganah Oct 26 @ 10:10 PM EDT

A1 I share my struggles all the time, but perhaps I am unusual that way. #weirded

msmusiced Oct 26 @ 10:10 PM EDT

I have to drive home. May be a while. I'll read the archive if too late 😞 #weirded

A1 Sometimes we feel like a nut, sometimes we don't. #weirded

mrterborg Oct 26 @ 10:10 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher We like the bravery in others. We're afraid to risk it ourselves. Fear of what others will think. What will happen #weirded

nathan_stevens Oct 26 @ 10:10 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher well you know whose fault it is #weirded

BlueCerealEduc Oct 26 @ 10:10 PM EDT

#weirded first weird ed chat I'm excitied a1) because we're humans and we don't like vulnerability..lol I know I don't... sometimess

mrburkemath Oct 26 @ 10:11 PM EDT

@MsLafferty ... And when you know for sure who it's okay to share with. #WeirdEd

nathan_stevens Oct 26 @ 10:11 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher A1 I am a constant failure, I talk about it a lot as being a co-learner #WeirdEd

shadow_uzumaki Oct 26 @ 10:11 PM EDT

#WeirdEd A1. Sometimes it feels like I'm just whining, or it's just too much hustle to put in several 140full tweets

keelybshannon Oct 26 @ 10:11 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher tbqh I wanted to contribute from my safe space, and I couldn't remember any examples. Do we block it out? #weirded

BlueCerealEduc Oct 26 @ 10:12 PM EDT

A1: Without context, I worry I look like I'm trolling for 'obligatory support'. Blog idea allows more genuine mojo, I think. #weirded

GeoJo22 Oct 26 @ 10:12 PM EDT

A1a To share we have to feel we are in a safe place. #weirded

MissShuganah Oct 26 @ 10:12 PM EDT

A1 It's hard to share your failings. Makes us vulnerable. Open to judgment. Criticism. #weirded

MsLafferty Oct 26 @ 10:12 PM EDT

Yes. I share struggles with a select few for now. #weirded https://t.co/E7wqZhqZqi

mrburkemath Oct 26 @ 10:11 PM EDT

@MsLafferty ... And when you know for sure who it's okay to share with. #WeirdEd

senoritaRCwusd Oct 26 @ 10:12 PM EDT

Q1 I am honest about my struggles always, but perhaps people are afraid of judgement and critical people who know nothing #WeirdEd

brianrozinsky Oct 26 @ 10:12 PM EDT

@mrterborg @TheWeirdTeacher Is it like seppuku? Ritual preferably carried out by someone else. #weirded

innejf Oct 26 @ 10:12 PM EDT

A1 Because liking it in theory is different to being vulnerable and following through. Your idea gave people agency to share #weirdEd

TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator Oct 26 @ 10:12 PM EDT

#WeirdEd To be ironic I'm listening to Revolver on vinyl. Perfect music for an imperfect chat

shadow_uzumaki Oct 26 @ 10:12 PM EDT

@BlueCerealEduc #WeirdEd Yes, this too. Sometimes, I feel like it's "I'm having struggles, feel sorry for me!"

nathan_stevens Oct 26 @ 10:12 PM EDT

@TheWeirdTeacher A1 mistakes are how you learn. Be honest with your students. It makes learning easy #WeirdEd

slwindisch Oct 26 @ 10:12 PM EDT

A1 ctd. I want people to know that I screw up. Like, all the time. I can't learn from what's wrong if I'm scared of it. #WeirdEd

SlpSummer Oct 26 @ 10:13 PM EDT

@keelybshannon @TheWeirdTeacher #weirded I was kind of thinking the same thing.

BlueCerealEduc Oct 26 @ 10:13 PM EDT

@shadow_uzumaki Exactly. I'm not interested in that. But the 'look how I solved teaching' theme has GOT to be countered! #weirded

@keelybshannon @TheWeirdTeacher #weirded plus "I said something insufficiently tactful" does not a blog post make.

@SlpSummer #WeirdEd Ah, who says it's a fluke? I think that's one of the reasons we need the blog.

BlueCerealEduc Oct 26 @ 10:15 PM EDT

@shadow_uzumaki lol... I hear you. I'm in year 17 and I'm quite comfortable looking incompetent at this point, I assure you :-) #weirded

TheMrsC_9 Oct 26 @ 10:16 PM EDT

@slwindisch @BlueCerealEduc #WeirdEd Yep. Its an ever-changing field, new things pop up ALL the time... Lol.
