astronomyinspires:I’m a high school physics and chemistry teacher. I have a B.S. in Physics and my Master’s degree in science education. I started going to school to become an astrophysicist, because I fell in love with the stars. I became a teacher because I also fell in love with teaching, I love learning, and I know I can make a difference in helping increase science literacy. My Dad sent this to me today. It’s only funny because of how devistatingly true it is. My family and friends worry about my financial situation. I hate that. I hate that this country doesn’t value education. This is why so many teachers leave after the first year, they aren’t supported. I’ve seen colleagues who are amazing science teachers leave their positions because they aren’t able to support their families. Please consider what these teacher protests are really about, and support your teachers. I really loved this video. Even if you don’t like Bill Maher or my liberal views, I think it’s worth the watch.https://youtu.be/UIjxnKp0Ay0 -- source link
