Haven’t been on here in forreevverrrr...

Curious - who still sees this?

[samanthainsecondary]

Tumblr is seriously trying to keep me away from @mrsseekingbalance ! This is the second time I had to go looking for her because I wasn't seeing her posts and whaddya know? Unfollowed. Ugh! No wonder I barely access this platform. Silly @staff!

[samanthainsecondary]

Are you able to help me find a teacher I followed several years ago? I think they were from South Carolina or the South at least, had at least a college age daughter, and taught in a smaller city or town and potentially a religious school. I can't remember their url but I followed them until I got locked out of my old Tumblr account since my email was changed and I don't remember the password for Tumblr. I think the teacher had a short username but I don't remember what they teach.

Educhums- anyone recognize this person?

[samanthainsecondary]

Anyone else love looking at other people’s bulletin boards? Find some serious inspiration today on the blog! I’m rounding up all of my favorite bulletin boards this year in this post. 

[samanthainsecondary]

Talking about the pros/cons of attendance questions over on my blog today. Is this something you use in your classroom? How else do you build positive culture in your own classroom?

Tumblr Teacher’s Amazon Classroom Wish Lists 2018-2019

Hello Wonderful Tumblrites,

Every year, teachers spend on average $500 on their classroom of their own money.   I know many teachers who spend considerably more.   Each year, I request links to wish lists from the teachers on Tumblr to share; we call it Teachmas.  It is wonderful to have support from all over as we prepare for the new school year.  Please consider purchasing an item, if money is tight, reblogs also help!   Thank you so much!

Hi Friends! If you have a little extra this year and would like to support a deserving classroom, here is an excellent list. My list is here and I’d love any and all donations we can get. Thanks for supporting Tumblr teachers!

[samanthainsecondary]

When you get your rosters and see that you got the siblings of not one, but TWO of your current favorites!

[samanthainsecondary]

I ended up writing an entire post about “edu-detoxing”. Check it out! 

[tastefullyoffensive]

(via painthands)

[samanthainsecondary]

This is the quality content that keeps me coming back to Tumblr.

[gothgfs]

yall take this quiz and say what your 3 cities were

[hisnamewasbeanni]

It’s placed the Australian in either New York or southern Florida, and actually I can accept this.

[dwendog]

So @hisnamewasbeanni and I are apparently from more or less the same area, without actually speaking anything that even vaguely resembles the same language.

[hwenfayre]

So apparently I’m more like @hisnamewasbeanni than @dwendog who grew up closer to me but also like neither?

[dwendog]

In conclusion, Australia doesn’t know what it’s doing when it comes to language.

[hisnamewasbeanni]

Alternate conclusion: surveys designed to evaluate American dialects may not work perfectly when conducted on non-Americans?

[mamafox18]

[hrroyalgeekness]

I live in Indiana.

[samanthainsecondary]

I’m from Pittsburgh, but I’ve lived all over. This is interesting.

[samanthainsecondary]

Edu-detoxing.

Anyone else have a period of time after school ends that they just CANNOT think about school?

I see all these people in FB groups and on insta just planning, planning, planning and I can’t for the life of me get on-board. I can’t think of anything school related until late July or early August. I usually wait until the feeling of dread has passed and then I feel ready to begin anew. 

I’m going to the beach next week. After that, I MIGHT be ready to think about school again... maybe...
