So, I have been struggling with finding my teacher-voice during this whole remote learning experience. I don't want to give out busy-work that students don't get anything out of. My goal as a teacher is to change lives & while I do think that online learning can definitely work,

I just feel that the circumstances demand more. Don't get me wrong, I want them to learn the curriculum, but it just feels like we are missing the boat with trying to do too much. So, I've decided that I need to approach this differently. Hence, I am going to have my students

journal everyday. I'm sure I'm not the only one doing this but I've decided that I can get closer to my goal that way. There will still be curriculum work but I've decided this is more important. Here is journal entry #1 http://shorturl.at/gHPUW  #sschat #democracyschools
