SAVE SNOW DAYS: twitter.com/share?text=Some%20schools%20are%20tryi…
-
Fun Fact: The US Air Force, assuming nothing critically important is happening and you arent already in an area that gets snow all the time, allows base commanders to call snow days for an entire base.
If the military gives its men snow days, they can give kids a snow day. -
This is like taking a child to an amusement park and telling them they have to do cardio in the parking lot for the next 8 hours
-
“Distance learning worked so well”
Half my grade failed the semester -
As a teacher, I'm going to tell you now that we also love snow days. Sleeping in? No correcting? Able to watch Netflix all day? That is the best
-
Our district has kept its snow days, the Teacher's Union stepped up with a loud "Those are our days off too"
-
the best part about this is that Grey was a teacher and probably loved snow days when he was working too
-
Imagine creating an institution so horrific that children will literally pray for a single day of respite from it.
-
When I was in school, we had a superintendent who would rarely approve snow days. Until she crashed her car trying to get to the school on a snowy day.
-
"why were you absent yesterday?"
"It snowed?"
"We had a zoom class"
"Power was out" -
One time it started snowing at school, and my teacher said:
"I know it's hard to focus when there's snow outside..."
I expected her to say "focus anyway", but instead she said "so why focus?" She turned off the lesson and let us out for recess early. I miss that teacher -
I think kids should get a set amount of personal days they can take. It might even make them feel like they have some kind of control over their own lives too.
-
Lemme tell you. Distance learning didn’t work so well. The amount of “Sorry teacher, my internet isn’t working.” excuses used is UNBELIEVABLE.
-
I live in California and even with the lack of snow my school declares one day each semester a snow day anyway because the principal grew up in a snowy place and loved snow days as a kid. How great is that
-
Fun fact, during the first winter of covid and everyone was learning from home, my hometown school board still cancelled school when there would have been a snow day, because they (rightfully) thought this was important
-
You'd think by now we'd learn forcing kids to sit still and listen only ever encourages them to completely zone out and learn less than they had if they took breaks and played
-
As a person who grew up in a snowless city, I envy you guys who had them.
-
The fact that Grey has been a teacher himself makes this even more important you see
-
I never thought I’d see Grey more passionate about anything than he is about hexagons
-
At least here in Florida, they'll never cancel hurricane days. Except you can't play outside, your power's gone out, you're praying a tree doesn't fly into your living room, and all you have to eat is canned soup. 😭
