Last yr, my APP2 colleague was having trouble w/ the VdeG generator. I assumed it was b/c it was too humid.
Now that I teach APP2, I realize it doesn't have a belt!!
I'm so thankful for Arbor Scientific. Replacement is in stock, shipping on Mon, will arrive in time to use!!

I'm thrilled to report that I found an amazing colleague to come on board. Turns out, he had been waffling around with retiring from public school, but wasn't ready to stop teaching.
Win-win!!!
And...he teaches Astronomy!!!

Anyone in Metro Detroit looking for a Physics position for the fall? Bonus points if you can teach Astronomy.
Please reach out, if interested.
Catholic, but very accepting, high school in NW Metro Detroit.

Any of you finding a gambling problem amongst your student population. Has your school attempted to deal with it? How so? Any positive results?

I love Test Correction day. The kids dig deep, make amazing connecting, and maybe...just maybe...the girls and boys may talk to each other. 🤪

Just divulged a memory to a friend that I hadn't thought about for a while.
Grade 10-ish, English class, given a list of maybe 100 books and told to find one with one of a handful of themes.
When one asked, 'what if we don't find the theme?' The teacher replied, 'keep trying.'

I just received an email from a student letting me know they'll be out tomorrow and unsure about after that.
Their father has terminal cancer, and they want to be in the hospital with them.
OMG. Yes. You be there.

How is it that none of his high school or university peers recognized him? No friends or family?
I honestly assumed he was foreign when nobody stepped up to identify him.

They seem to have caught the CEO gunman. (Folks are calling him “The Claims Adjuster,” which is kind of hilarious.) Anyhow, someone spotted him at a McDonalds in Altoona, PA. He has the ID on him that was used at the hostel.

I was pressed for time and thought I wouldn't get to the STEP UP Careers in Physics lesson this year. But, we found a way!

#iteachphysics Do any of you know anything about an AP 'Office Hours' meeting Monday at 7pm ET? I was prompted to sign up when I logged into AP Classroom the other day.
Since then, I can't find ANY info and nobody else knows anything about it.

I had a nice 24 hours in Grand Rapids visiting one of my #iteachphysics and @STEPUP besties and attending the fall MI-AAPT meeting.

I was going to do the Mu of the Shoe lab on Monday. But, my boys wear really similar dress shoes every day. I found out Tuesday is a dress down day (they donate $3 to a club once a month). So, Tuesday it will be! Bring those sneakers, boys!!

I've had a really stressful couple of weeks recently. Just a lot on my plate and, at times, a bit emotionally draining.
I had my first unannounced observation today by my principal. When he left, he gave me this.
So thankful.

Today was a great collaboration day. My #BRHSAPP1 students have their 2nd 'big test' in the next 2 days. Today's review was very helpful!
I can't seem to upload a picture. I tried to change my settings 6 ways.

Phew...haven't been on here in a minute. Lots of new connections!
What's new for me? I'm back in the classroom after 2 years, part time, teaching AP Physics 1 and LOVING it!
All boys' school + 5 girls from neighboring girls' school!!
Learning a lot again. 💜

I have been obsessed with these pens for at least 4 years now - have even purchased them for students and colleagues.
And, look! They're the official STEM pen!!
Awesomesauce!!

@ArborSci did me a solid this week! I just received the last of the supplies for my @SquareOneNet workshop next week. Some items had been on backorder. #nostress
Each participant will receive this bundle from me & much, much more from my co-facilitator.
