Teaching tip: When students are driving you crazy with things like 6-7, don’t get mad at them. Embrace it. The relationships you form and the moments you create will mean more than any standard you could ever teach them.

@thefakefangirl.bsky.social This was SO GREAT! A really enjoyable read. I would love to see more of this. Amazing job to every writer and artist involved.

This might be controversial, but I am going to say it anyway. We need to go back to selling monster cereals year round. It is October 1 and almost everywhere around here has almost sold out. Count Chocula is my favorite cereal of all time and it is not fair we only get it from August to October.

I loved this film. James Gunn gets Superman. Everything about this movie showcases what I have always loved about DC Comics. This film is how Superman is supposed to be. It is a fun movie from beginning to end and I can’t wait to see it again.

We saw this mural painted on the side of the comic shop that I grew up going to in my hometown. Thought it was “x-tra” cool!😉

InvestigateTV+ picked up on our story about the Every Kid Is A Hero Foundation and I got word that it ran in around 25 different cities yesterday. The video shows some highlights of the story.

I am hoping the comics we make for these kids will inspire them the way comics have always inspired me.

We got to see some of our heroes today! The Every Kid Is A Hero Foundation presented Sumner County Schools with a check for $12,000 that was raised at this year’s event. The funds will be split among all high school CDC classes to provide extra resources for students.

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!

I may not be able to speak with the historical authority of some of my history heroes like @bradmeltzer.com and @joshmensch.bsky.social, but I think I got this question right! 😁

If you need some good laughs to wrap up a Monday night of doomscrolling, head on over to the Department of Education’s Facebook page and read the comments on their…heartfelt…acknowledgement of Teacher Appreciation Week. It is quite entertaining.

Found this at Wal-mart today and about lost my mind. Can’t believe this even exists, but I am very happy it does!

You never know what you are going to get when you teach AP students. Sometimes you get happy students that make 5’s on the AP test. Sometimes, you get pink flags with your face printed on it. 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Turned 47 today. Spent the day announcing our local Special Olympics and spending time with the fam. Pretty great day. Looking forward to a weekend filled with Easter activities and Wrestlemania. Life is good.

I disagree with the caption on this.

Yes, Superman could have flown over and saved her, but he and Batman are obviously letting Robin look cool and play the hero on this one.

Superman and Batman are solid wingmen. Some may even say they are the world’s finest.

Tonight, I introduced the kids to the timeless classic, “The Outsiders.”

I have watched this a ton of times since I was a kid. Every time, I notice that issue of Detective Comics 521 from Dec. 1982 on the shelf.

Outsiders took place in 1965.

Did Dalley time travel?

No power? No problem!

The world tells you that you need a lot of stuff, but this morning was a good example that all you really need is Jesus.

Hats off to the First Baptist Hendersonville team for keeping the door open this morning and giving people something to smile about on a dreary Sunday!

Went to a local card shop today and found these American Bandstand cards that featured artists from the 50s-90s. These were some of my favorites.

I saw this referenced in a news article and wanted to look it up myself. I will leave it here for anyone that should need it in the future. 😁

26 years ago today, I lost my dad to a sudden and unexpected heart attack. Not a day has gone by that I haven’t missed him. He would be amazed at how my/the world has changed since March 29, 1999.

I do like to think this is how he went into Heaven to meet Jesus.

With my American History of Rock & Soul class on the horizon, I got a new toy for my classroom. I feel like I would be doing the kids a disservice if every example I played was digital. This baby can play vinyl, cassette, CD, FM radio and Bluetooth. “Kids, this is called a cassette tape!”

We took them to the security guy and asked him to pass them on if he could. We go out to dinner and come back to our room to find this:

My kids were fascinated with Dolly and they wanted to say hello so bad. She had a security guard on her floor, but I told them to draw her some pictures and we would deliver them to the security guard. 3/5

Here’s a fun little story for the end of spring break. My family and I went up to Dollywood for the weekend. It was opening day of the theme park and Dolly herself was there to welcome all the guests with a huge afternoon parade. I had been to Dollywood before, but never on opening day. 1/5
