    6 feet apart working on google docs or something else online that will instantly update as students work. They can still talk to each other!

    There is a Google Meet Breakout room extension already. It’s kit created by Google, but it has lots of great components. You do need to learn it before you try to use it. https://www.hudektech.com/projects/breakout

Can someone tell me why I thought it was a good idea to teach summer school? I'm back in the classroom tomorrow, and I'm hating my life right now.

I saw a district introduce a program where they help students in teacher preparation programs get teaching jobs. I love that but I hope they realize the problem isn’t qualified teachers but retaining teachers. I think there’s more than enough people who’d love to teach but choose a different career or leave teaching due to the awful conditions. Do you agree that it is a There’s a teacher retention problem vs teacher shortage?

I normally try to steer clear of politics and I try not to judge students or their parents based on political conversations I might overhear, but today was different. On their way out to recess, I heard two first-graders of all people talking about Iran and how we "just need to nuke them all." I'm sorry but if that is what you're talking about at home then you need to reevaluate some things. Would you say something to the students or parents in this situation?

How do you stay on top of good habits during the summer? I already find myself staying up way too late since I know I don't have to get up early the next day.

Why is it so frowned upon when you hold IEP students accountable? My campus seems to love to enable lazy IEP kids. There’s always an excuse as to why they can’t or don’t need to do things. So of course, when I hold mine accountable and hold them to the same expectations are my regular students, I’m the bad guy. Anyone else notice this too?
