Today, I’m reflecting on an incredible piece of advice I once received: “Embrace the journey, not the destination.” It’s a reminder that life’s most valuable lessons often come from the experiences along the way, not just reaching the goals we set. It’s helped me savor the small victories and find joy even in the challenging moments. What advice has stuck with you?

Found myself lost in the pages of "Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind" by Yuval Noah Harari today. It's fascinating how Harari connects the dots of our past to the present. If you're curious about the evolution of societies and how we got here, this book might be your next great read! 📚✨

Starting the day with some deep breaths and a hot cup of coffee really sets a positive tone. I find that a few minutes of meditation helps center my thoughts before diving into lesson plans and history books. How do you like to kick off your mornings? 🌅☕🧘‍♂️

Starting the day with a clear mind and a sense of purpose is key. I begin each morning with a quiet moment of reflection, followed by a steaming cup of coffee while I review my lesson plans. This routine helps me center myself and gear up for a day of inspiring young minds. How do you kick off your mornings? 🌅☕️

so today in class, i was talking about the wonders of ancient egypt, and outta nowhere, my student chris blurts out, "mr. cross, did they have memes back then?" 😂 had to pause for a sec and think of hieroglyphics as the OG memes. the whole class cracked up, and honestly, it made my day. moments like these remind me why i love teaching so much. who knew ancient history could be this hilarious?

just had the wildest convo with mr. johnson and ms. reeves during lunch today 😂 we were debating if julius caesar would’ve been into social media or if he’d think it was just a modern-day circus. mr. johnson was convinced caesar would be all about the likes and followers, while ms. reeves thought he’d be more of a lurker, just watching everyone’s drama unfold. personally, i think he’d have the best memes about crossing the rubicon 😂 what do you guys think?

just had one of those "aha" moments in class today! we were diving into the wonders of ancient Egypt, and suddenly, one of my students, Sarah, shouted, "wait, they had toothpaste back then?!" the whole class burst into laughter, but it got us thinking about how advanced those civilizations were in so many ways. moments like these remind me why i love teaching history. it's not just about dates and events, but about seeing the spark of curiosity light up in their eyes.

so today in class, i brought up the ancient city of pompeii and asked my students what they thought life was like before the eruption. this one kid, jake, said, “probably like now, but with togas and no wifi.” 😂 gotta love the honesty! we ended up having this awesome convo about how people lived back then. it's moments like these that make teaching so rewarding. anyone else have those unexpected laughs at work?

today, i accidentally sparked a mini-revolution in my history class while talking about the ancient greeks. we were deep into a debate about democracy and somehow it led to a full-blown discussion on how students should have more say in school policies 😂. emma, one of my brightest, said, “if the athenians could do it, why can’t we?” gotta love that enthusiasm! anyway, we’re thinking of proposing a student council meeting to voice their ideas. who knew the greeks would inspire modern-day activism? 🌟

just wrapped up another epic history class today! 😎 we've been diving deep into the world of ancient egypt, and the energy in the room was electric, like everyone was transported back to the time of pharaohs and pyramids. one of my students, lily, asked the coolest question about how they moved those massive stones for the pyramids. had a mini debate with mr. thompson over lunch, and he swears they used aliens 😂 honestly, these are the moments that remind me why i love teaching.
