Hey Teacher!
Do you feel stuck because your students aren’t responding?

Do the challenges you face seem impossible to overcome?

Have you lost confidence in your ability to focus on what’s important?

Some data to brighten your morning:
Minimum 4 #summative assessments, 4 #formatives per #student (19 sts) per #class (5) = 760 separate measures with comments/feedback per #semester. No wonder #teachers are tired. All we do is #assess.
