Hey everyone? ❤️🌮 I have a surprise for you

Hey everyone? ❤️🌮 I have a surprise for you!
I went to add another game board size to my TT Templates (and I did that for you too! There’s 5 game board sizes now!) but I got distracted by another awesome idea.
So many people love Taco Tuesday and have asked how to play virtually. I feel like all of the answers I gave so far absolutely pale in comparison to this!
PLEASE go re-download your Taco Tuesday editable templates! There are now drag and drop options prepopulated for your students, and instructions on how I suggest you use this in a hybrid or remote setting. Students will choose their color, and drag and drop the circles to claim their tacos. Have fun!
Save this post to come back to the video as a reminder, and tag a teacher friend below! Remember, this game isn’t for Spanish class only!

Attendance tracker, cleaning specialist, disease p

Attendance tracker, cleaning specialist, disease prevention, parent whisperer..... the list goes on and on. When it feels like no one is noticing all of your extra roles.....I see you. I know you’ve always worked hard, but that this is a new level. I know that it’s not possible to do it ALL.
Sometimes you have to cut the list. Maybe it’s time to use a project from last year instead of reinventing the wheel (again.) Maybe you have to explain to admin that, no, you cannot contact 30 families this week. Maybe it’s ok to NOT learn that new tech tool - it can’t wait until next week... or sometimes never🤷🏼‍♀️ we don’t need them ALL.
What are the most important titles on your list? And what can you cut? For me the essential ones are teacher, mentor, and coach. Notice- those all have to do with the STUDENTS. They are my “why.” When I am cutting my list, things that don’t directly and immediately affect my students are the ones that have to go.
Now bring in your personal life: mom, wife, sister, daughter, friend. It’s easy to see why teachers are feeling so overwhelmed right now.
If you had to choose just three roles this week, what would they be? How would it affect your week?

Have you tried Café Charla with your students? ☕️💗
My favorites are the weekend chat version and the future tense set (pictured here📸)
Café Charla is great for an opener activity, a formative assessment, or for fast finishers. Virtually, the PDF can be shared and students can shop through the questions in their breakout rooms💬
I had a request today for a Present Perfect set, and it is now posted AND included in the bundle! I will link the bundle to this photo if you click the link in my bio! 🔗
As always, let me know if there’s a specific set you’d like to see!

Saying no can be difficult. It can even be scary.

Saying no can be difficult. It can even be scary. We don’t want to let others down, we don’t want to disappoint, and sometimes we don’t want to get into trouble(!) so we don’t often give ourselves permission to say no.
I was very lucky to have a lot of support this summer when I was in the (agonizing) process of deciding to take a step back from teaching this year to stay home with Liam. My district and family were both supportive of my decision (and my lengthy mental process, ha.)
Of course, many in the IG community here also offered words if encouragement, validation, and empowerment. @eatdrinkandbemeredith reminded me that NO is a full sentence. It does not need an explanation, justification, argument. Just - No. “No” is enough. I have been struggling still with guilt and some worry about my decision about this year, but I know that “no” was my decision and that it was the right one for my family right now.
What is something you said “no” to recently? Is saying no hard for you, or do you have any tips for those of us that struggle?
