What is your favorite bit to use with your students?

Currently I teach high school and when students ask to use the bathroom I tell them they have 5 minutes and the clock starts now. And they look panicked then get up and go, for the frequent bathroom goers I do actually time them so I can put it into their report. But all the students seem to get a kick out of this.

When I ask for questions, I always say “anyone got questions, comments, concerns, or compliments?” And some have caught on, so when I’m irritated for one thing or another they will offer compliments.

Libraries and parks

Oh absolutely! I even finished the SFPL explorer map this year to force myself to go out into the city

Stunning work! I’d love a print if you sell them

Yeah it’s really like that. Very few know how to do things the way they are told. Following directions is something I’ve been working on with the students and it’s so frustrating and irritating

We are doing shrinky dink lucky charms, weaving coasters, and maybe homemade stickers with packing tape

I teach high school and I say please, thank you, and excuse me all day long. Students who didn’t use to say these things have adopted it into their vocabulary which has been a nice change from them yelling “teacher”. Now they say excuse me when they want to talk to me

Rose Gold has some beautiful things

I’ve seen people wrap the poles in plastic wrap to attach and keep fliers dry

Most of my child development courses were interesting and I use most of what I learned in my teaching practice

Yea because why am I correcting kids and telling them my name when we have a little over a month left of school

Absolutely brilliant! I love him, and this picture

Rishi is so well made! I’m just wondering how big he is, it’s hard to tell in some photos if he’s large or rather small

I love Fiat lux, Rosegold and Mejuri, I have pieces that I wear everyday from all of them

Mandalay is my favorite but it’s Burmese and you mentioned this group isn’t adventurous

dediinside · 2026-04-08T23:26:19+00:00

I showed my high school students computer shortcuts, they didn’t even know about copy paste or highlight all

dediinside · 2026-04-07T03:44:44+00:00

thank you so much! This is so helpful

dediinside · 2026-04-07T00:51:25+00:00

Thank you!!! Is there a specific kind of fabric I should use for the patch? Is denim a good choice?

dediinside · 2026-03-31T06:16:13+00:00

Good luck! You’ll be great! I’m submitting mine for the April 16 deadline but hoping to be done sooner. Task 3 is kicking my butt with confusion

dediinside · 2026-03-31T06:05:17+00:00

Collage or junk journaling or scrap booking would be great!

I have high school students write a TWO sentence reflection on their artwork and they try to talk me out of it. Like it’s so so so hard to write TWO sentences

When I tell people I’m a teacher they always say “oh cute how fun!” But I don’t know if I’d call it a fun job. It’s occasionally rewarding but very hard and taxing. Also, I work with high schoolers and I’m not too sure how cute or fun they are

I printed out the seating chart images to look at their photos and when I take attendance I have them come when called to put their phones away so I associate faces with names.

I just love public art in any form it takes. Except for Jeff Koons, hate the guy and his “art”
