I'm considering taking a week of PTO. I want to focus on what I can do rather than all the bad that is about to hit so many people. But I can't shake the anger, and the fear. It all feels a bit...crushing.

Hmm… great time to reframe your perspective of who has impact on your life.

Don’t give power to something that is temporary.

I don’t have many people in my life, I’m independent. So I need the system to work for me

Sure you do, consider all the people that ensure you have all your daily comforts in life. That comes from people that knowingly or unknowingly support you.

Yes. I lived the 'promote the loud bigoted white guy over the competent qualified black woman' in my personal life. The last month has been incredibly triggering.

I do as well. However, this is something that is not going to change.

I recommend taking a complete break from all media. Do things that bring you joy.

Did anyone else adopt the new Florida Wonders curriculum? We just adopted it this school year, and I teach 4th grade. My team and I have not found a good flow, schedule, or whatever you want to call it. We feel like it teaches too many skills in one lesson, and we are not able to truly teach anything “deep” enough for students to master. Does anyone have any insight? What do you do? Do you like the curriculum? Why or why not? Would you be willing to share what you do weekly/daily? Thanks!
