I Firmly Believe What Ever You’re Obsessed With At 11/12 Years Old Becomes A Core Part Of Who You Are,

GHOST FILES TEASER The hunt begins in 2022. We’re back in the saddle, and we’d love for you to turn the light on.

Guys will be like “I know a spot” and then take you to the Miskatonic University Hospital morgue to reanimate corpses

1918, Spanish Flu. “Wear a mask or go to jail”                          

Reblog to make him lose another 200 billion, like to make him lose 1 billion

perhaps some will disagree, but i think the world got worse when we changed the colour of the night

The way we treat children has a societal price tag I am willing to pay.

“Have you tried following PBIS?”

Dude I am following the PBIS plan but it’s not working have you considered that maybe 8th graders are just dicks?

Honestly, hearing Steven tell Mark “You were just a child. It wasn’t your fault” probably made so many childhood abuse survivors feel validated.

My heart aches when I hear it. ‘Cause no one had told me that, and I never heard it till now. Even with how much time goes by, it always hurts when I’m reminded of what happened.

I’m not sure if you all realize how much it means to a writer when you comment on their work. It’s more than a like or a reblog, it’s actual interaction between you and the writer.

It doesn’t even have to be about the work! Tell them how you stayed up late reading, how your day is just a little better because of their work.

Heck, just stop by to say hi!

SOLUTION TO THE TEACHER SHORTAGE: Make the students have a more positive experience in school. And who does that responsibility fall on? Yup, you. The teacher.

Whaaaat? Really @newsday?

They completely missed the mark with why teachers (especially STEM, Sped, and ENL) are leaving and potential teachers aren’t coming in. And it’s very simple:

1️⃣Give teachers a decent wage that’s based on the hours they actually work as opposed to time spent in the classroom only. We are one of the only professions that doesn’t get overtime for staying late. That needs to change.

2️⃣(And this might be an unpopular opinion)... Get rid of Common Core. Stop enacting shitty roll-outs to new standards before they’ve been tested and teachers don’t have time to get proper training to what a good lesson with those standards looks like.

3️⃣Stop attacking our unions. Stop messing with our retirement. Stop trying to make it more difficult for us to love our jobs.

4️⃣ Decrease the politics in education. Why do we need to worry about the state of public education (OUR JOBS) every four years?

5️⃣Stop treating new teachers like shit. What is the turnover rate looking like these days (especially in those rural, inner city, and poverty stricken areas)? Yeah, there’s more teachers needed, but how about we try to also KEEP the ones we have?

6️⃣And probably the most important (in my opinion)- MAKE SCHOOLS SAFE AGAIN. I was just talking to my friends about this. We all know it sucks that students don’t feel safe in their learning environment. But what about the people who come to work every day wondering if today might be their last?

I. Did. Not. Sign. Up. For. This.

Stop acting like the teacher shortage is because teachers are going into the wrong grade levels. Start looking at how to make teaching an enticing career choice.

⏸What do you think? What is one thing that would make your job as a teacher just a little easier? For me? I’ll take a 5️⃣ and 6️⃣ combo!
