    "The practice of city planning has largely been reduced to zoning, a way of categorizing the world into homogenous blocks, primarily for ease of regulation and transportation, the latter being the primary way we facilitate growth within our cities. What both professions have in common is that they view cities as complicated, but not complex. There is a massive difference, and it's critical to explaining why our modern cities are so fragile. Something that is complicated can have many moving parts."

And it's not like again I'm not at like this, this place where I'm completely debilitated or have severe issues all the time, but little things are starting to pop up.

    "But the same question that I posted on here before about like, what would you tell your parents to do differently? Something along those lines. The kids had really interesting responses the seventh grader. So that encouraged me. But I think I will also try this with them now.

    "Because I find like sometimes with classes, you know, we do, I think it's structured in a way where we're teaching stuff, is often taught to teach to take up the time allotted for class. Now my school is slightly different that the high schoolers. A teacher can say to the high schoolers, we're just not going to have class today. You have this project, you can go anywhere on campus and do it, which I think is awesome."

    "I'm going to be paired with a teacher that's new to the school, but I think has been teaching English for a while. And I had really made this big fuss over myself about really learning more of the humanities side of things.

    "And also it takes you away from, if you really have reading set, it takes you away from social media so you're not like bouncing around the latest thing. You get some like separation from that. I recently, for the end of the, during the end of the year and towards, towards our current, the summer coming up, I've started doing like workbooks related to our science classes or STEM classes. I went through chemistry."

    "Being able to visualize things is an important part of understanding the material. Social studies, reading. So there are ways to finagle intersecting math with that. But it may be a case where we just talk about the skills that are very important for those subjects. And science, maybe math and board of science, I don't know. But I like that idea.

    "You certainly need it versus versus content knowledge versus experience. Working with. Working with the content as an educator, which is different than just understanding it, because you've seen different ways that this has been done.

You have exposure to the difficulties and successes kids go through while they're sorting these things out in their head."
