Any NBCTs who have worked on their MOC? What are specific examples of strong PGEs that impact student learning? I need help. I do everything, but for the life of me, I can't wrap my head around this. The directions are too ambiguous to be of any service to me.

So I'm divorced and have teenage kids who will be off to college in a couple years. I'm thinking about getting back with my post divorce ex-gf (not ex-wife). (Contd)

It’s been 2 months since I quit work. It took that long to feel “normal” again. My friends have been saying I seem happier. I picked up some old hobbies again and started exercising! There are days when lack of productivity makes me anxious. A part of me then wishes I could have been like this while still working in PA. Maybe if I’d tried harder, I could have had a decent work like balance?
Still, I am starting to believe that quitting was the best decision for me. 💕

Is there a site where I could just copy/paste a poem in and it would let them move the words around? There's a similar site available, but you have to enter each word in one by one.
