Just finished The Giver with the 8th graders. Maybe 25% of the students followed along in the book while listening to the audiobook. The rest goofed around or put their head down.
One exciting outcome... those that followed along went to the library and checked out the next book in the series!! 🎉

Whatever you choose, make sure it is NOT Where the Red Fern Grows.
My two oldest where BAWLING in the backseat, the last 20 miles home one summer. 🥺😢😭

I always wondered...
Why are none of those grown men holding that dear child's hand? Not one reached out in humanity to give her an extra ounce of peace?

Utterly embarrassing that this is posted on an account connected to the federal government. I don't even let my eighth grade students talk to each other like this.
Social media has eliminated common decency.
Apparently no one needs to speak respectfully anymore. We can all act like 13 year olds.

As a teacher, the only thing I read was, don't put too much effort in parent updates, because they only want to know how they are doing in math. Unless of course their child gets called into the principal's office. Then they will want to know why I didn't say anything about their behavior.

Curious what career "Education" refers to.
Obviously not TK-12 classroom teachers as I do not know any district that pays their teachers $93K after five years.
Is this college professors?

"...although each President may make changes to the interior, these must be approved by the Committee for the Preservation of the White House. Any changes must be in keeping with the historical character of the White House."

The committee needs to be fired.

My grandma raised eight kids on government issued food. She never smoked crack.
