Place you best folks, what will have me crying more tonight: the #MugenTrainArc OR the current bane of my existence #edTPA ?
If I can finish 1 page of #edTPA commentary then I can read for a few hours, as a little treat. #itsdueThursday #oops #wishmeluck
To all the other teachers who had to do/teachers to be who are currently doing #edTPA I send my condolences. This is awful.

Listening to this while I complete Task 1 of my #edTPA #musicteacher #CTA #CMEA #NEA #SLEA
In the year since #educator preparation programs in NJ were released from using #edTPA as a state-mandated #teacher #performanceassessment, researchers have been interviewing with #teachers, admin, and EPPs to understand how they're adapting to this new change:

Really, I'm happy I passed the #edTPA because it means I will not be arbitrarily fired at the end of this year because of this test. Phew.
Y'all. I passed the #edTPA. NY State sez my score, a mere 48/75, means mastery. I'm a fully certified teacher. Yeahhhhhhh buddy!!!!
Eagerly awaiting my #edTPA results which come between 5-10 PM.. Refreshing my email inbox like a mad woman -_- stupid neoliberal ed reform.
After months of time-intensive, repetitive, bureaucratic, 70+ pages of work, I've finally completed the #edTPA. #TeacherAppreciationWeek
Then, after #edTPA, I can finally plan out my writing, math, + SS lessons. You know, the ACTUAL work of a teacher. #TeacherAppreciationWeek
But, I'm finally about to submit my last document for the #edTPA. Twelve documents later. Ugh.
The lesson I'm learning through the #edTPA- I need a new computer. This computer has delayed so much of my progress.
Why did I do this to myself? Why? #windowsupdate #edTPA #deadline #8morehours #masochist
I am two documents away from submitting this #edTPA. I am tired. Trying to be done in the next two hours. #finalpush
Observation went as well as it could. Learned me the ratios to baking a great proportioned cake in the process :) #teacherlife now #edTPA...
The reason I am not making as much progress on this #edTPA portfolio as I should be-
It. Is. Bull.
I don't want to do it.
#Thursday
As I finish the madness that is #edTPA... #evaluateTHAT #TeacherAppreciationWeek
About to upload a twenty-minute video of myself teaching for a private corporation to judge... #edTPA
Of course I am getting observed by my principal in my classroom the day before my #edTPA portfolio is due. Hurrah...
My Android phone is more advanced than my Windows 10 laptop in trimming videos. So backwards...
Also #edTPA is backwards... 4.5 more days...
I realize I have to up math vocabulary & discussion in my teaching. But unfortunately #edTPA isn't evaluative/reflective but punitive...
Thank goodness for NY #edTPA safety net but truly... I will have written 100 pages on THREE lessons, w/ no guarantee of passing. Ridiculous!
And clearly I am up because I want to teach next year and am truly worried about not getting through this thing... #edtpa
Wow. After reading all the commentary online, esp. the SPED low pass rate, I'm worried, as a 5th-yr teacher, that I'll fail the #edTPA...
Glad I am not the only one working hardcore at a cafe on a gorgeous Friday night... #edTPA I will be done with you by May 11th. Errr...
