Day of the Teacher

Today Education Week launched a fantastic campaign called “Day of the Teacher” to showcase what a day in the life of a teacher looks like. They encouraged teachers to snag pictures of their day, upload them to on Instagram, tag them with the time, and add the hashtag #dayoftheteacher. Education Week is using these pictures to create a living timeline of a teacher’s life. I really love the idea of this project and had fun participating. Below are my #dayoftheteacher photos (minus meetings, plannings, and everything after five -ha!). 🙂
