You look like my mentor teachers doppelgänger

Teachers are not “the problem.” However, of all the factors that affect student outcomes, the quality of the teacher remains the number one factor. Like you, I know that in high school, it is extremely difficult to overcome learning gaps caused by a lack of fundamental literacy skills, but nevertheless we have to try. I think your frustration is common and this is becoming a nationwide problem that some schools are trying to address earlier on in students’ schooling (new science of reading training, etc). I know you are having a positive impact on the skills of your students! 👍

Accurate! 😂

Lol that’s so great! Days like this I miss about teaching 😂

Wow, you are gorgeous. I couldn't focus on the subject at hand 😂

Coming from a student, we love these days too

Any tips for substitute teachers?

THANK U AM GOING ON FRIDAY FOR THE FIRST TIME THANKS

You are gourgeous

O in the video I c u with glasses Iam thinking of getting it to will you recommend it for me to get it Done

WHY U STILL wearing glasses?

that is the funniest bathroom pass lol

As a mermaid and a supersonic shark don't exist this is a pointless question and therefore I would refuse to provide an answer. As I would with any other similar stupid questions. I've yet to see an ice breaker activity that wasn't pointless so I don't understand why teachers persist in using them. I simply refuse to divulge anything about myself and/or my likes and dislikes. I appreciate this frustrates teachers, but to be honest this sort of stuff is no one else's business.

Thank you! Mine is this afternoon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some, not all, teachers are the problem. Yelling at students and embarrassing them in front of the class can make them not want to participate in their class as much.

I don’t know what grade you teach, so I would just throw out there that obvious this will not work for all grades! Based on my experience I think it has a great shot at working k-6th (in my memory 6th was still very manipulatable and we were very reward driven). I think once you hit 7th+ it’ll be pretty hard to muster up enough care in the challenge, hah

Your so gorgeous!!

These ideas are great, especially the airplanes one. Seems like such a unique little game that I wish I played in high school. Do you have any more you can recommend, I’d love to see more you have awesome ideas!

❤ Luv it!

These are great tips! Thank you

This gives me so much anxiety and probably should ask my doctor for a prescription ahead of time.

This is year 7 for me and I’ve taught both. I’m currently teaching middle school and as soon as I can, I’m transferring back to the high schools. I teach math and computer science (I’ve taught AP before, too.) Their behaviors are too much in middle school for me, especially since I’m more introverted. My days teaching high school were much more quiet. I related more to high schoolers, too.

They will be tired working foe minimum wage when they cannot read and write

Thanks! I have my audition next week. 🥰 Can’t wait to se you on tv!!

Great video, you shared your views with us. I think your video content is very suitable for our products, I would like to cooperate with you, are you interested?

Abrazos para Timothy Santos hasta California desde aquí. Dile que le envié abrazos con su papá. Me lo encontré en El Rey de la Plaza El Terrenal en David.🎉🎉🎉

i guess the experience is different for everyone. I just had Lasik done a week ago, i didn't feel a thing. i didnt experience getting a Xanax. lol.

What movie is that Arnold shouting? Haha😂

Did you ever upload a 1 year update? What was your vision before surgery and how is it now? Thank you!

How about doing the job youre being paid for without trying to project unfulfillment from your personal life, sincerely a dad.

How long it takes to completely be normal and getting back to job?

I'd be interested in learning more about the Google sheets. Is there a way to export info to build them, or does info have to be typed into there? How would you track a certain skill being practice to show growth (hopefully) , i.e. inferencing?

High school teachers shouldn’t be this beautiful lady. You are way to attractive to learn every single day around

“Is it witchcraft?”

That’s hilarious😂

🤣🤣

Stupid

I am a brazilian teacher and I love it. I have never used canva and now I'll try. ❤

Hi, i got surgery a week ago but my left eye hasn't improved. But my right eye has 6/6 vision but not in left. Please someone suggest what gone wrong.. i m freaking out

Logging communication is super important - its a good practice to have that information in an easy to share format - this tends to come in very handy around report card time! 😅 I hope all is well. Continued growth! 👍

Fostering Friendships Fridays 😊 Fun Friday 😊 it's all the same, I love this idea

Use a microphone

Hi Alexa! Loving your videos. I am a K-8 teacher taking on my first middle school position in 15 years (7th self-contained). Plus I'm starting for second quarter. I'm like you a lot energetically but am concerned that I should be more restrained at the beginning. What is the wisdom with energy? (My students have had subs all during first quarter btw)

That's why my eye doctor only do Lasik during night! :)

Facts! 😂😂😂😂

After my first year, when I was literally falling asleep grading and/or lesson planning, I promised myself I would no longer work outside my contract hours. Now, the only time I work outside my contract hours is when I'm getting my classroom ready for the new year and when I'm doing things for the National Honor Society, which I'm paid a stipend to do. I teach grades 7-12 ELA. I find ways to assess without having to grade a ton of work. Projects and essays take longer to grade, so they may not get those grades back for a week. I'm not required to do detailed lesson plans, so I give lesson overviews with the state standards and what I'm doing to assess learning. I'm not paid enough to kill myself for this profession.

Oh dang…

Ice Spice

Increasing response rates (Hattie/Marzano) can be tough. I personally like using “wheel of names.” Many students are self conscious about their own reading level or simply don’t want to read in front of others. It’s been a while - I hope your channel is doing well!
