Do we agree that as teachers we need to: -- engage our students more -- spend less time at school -- spend more time with family / BFFs / Chihuahuas / bean gardens / exercise bikes / morning cups of coffee -- laugh more, stress less -- feel (re)-inspired -- feel (re)-newed -- feel validated in our efforts? In order to do any of those, we strive to keep it simple 24/7.
