trying to think outside the box

Let me start off by saying that no child should ever feel unwanted in a classroom, and IEPs should never be ignored. I completely agree with the statements above.

But, I saw this from a different...

Ha

I'd reply with, I wish it were just $1,000. I'm taking a $6,000 pay cut this year because of furlough days.

lunch

This is such a difficult issue. I obviously don't want to see any child go hungry, but once again where is the accountability on parents? We're 70-80% free lunch, but every year we have a...

crazy

We had a parent go crazy on us earlier in the school year. My principal filed a restraining order on her, and the student eventually had to change schools.

This absolutely drives me insane!!! I haven't had a student quality in years, and I feel very confident that some of them did have learning disabilities and/or other special needs. I think that...

math

I spend 60 minutes a day on math, and I also have math practice for morning work and we work on math facts too. Next year, I plan to increase my time to 90 minutes a day, because I just don't feel...

directions

Are you describing my class? They cannot follow directions (written or oral) for anything! I had to give a standardized test today, and they did awful just because they couldn't follow the...

grades

I just give them what they score. However depending on the situation, I may allow a student to redo an assignment if necessary.

third

I also love third grade!

I think the age of the students is the biggest advantage to me. They are independent but don't have the same attitude as fourth and fifth graders. They still love you...

following

I'm following this post, because I've been wondering the same thing. I'll soon have my first child in school, and I really don't want to be one of [I]those[I] parents.

social meida

I definitely wouldn't let this go. In this day and age, you just can't have things like that floating around online. First, I would be sure to document everything and have proof of the messages. I...

waiting

In the past, we've always had to teach 3-digit by 1-digit division with remainders. I don't feel that this is expected in the CCS, since it's within 100. I feel that with the CCS, I should expect...

another thought

Let me first say that I've never taught or given a DRA on any grade level below third, so I may be totally off for K-2 assessments.

As a teacher, it's very important for me to have me students...

I used to feel silly during tornado drills, but we were hit two years ago at school. I was thankful for all the drills then. My attitude totally changed about drills, because you just never know...

parents

We have parents all over the hallway, all the time. In a way it's nice, because I appreciate parent involvement and many of them are wonderful volunteers. It's also a pain, because there are also...

safe

I've been thinking the same things today. Safety should absolutely be our school's number one priority, but I don't think it's possible to prevent every possible scenario. However, I know my...

Christmas Survey

Are you allowed to celebrate/recognize Christmas in your school/district? Yes, we really don't have any rules

How many? I've...

excuses

Last year, I had a mom tell me she couldn't talk with me, because she had a new puppy and was too busy. I thought she was joking, but she wasn't. The same mom refused to pick her son up when he was...

great question

I'm so glad you asked this, because I've always wondered if I was being mean by marking skipped questions wrong. I also give students a few weeks to get into the groove, before I start marking...

I'm torn on this one.

Pros-I would LOVE to be able to show parents what their perfect child does during the school day. It would be amazing documentation for behavior issues. I would also love...

I could be totally wrong, but I think I read somewhere that multiple license could be ordered after the original purchase. This way, if they like what you bought, they could still get the discounted...

As a parent, I'll send invitations through the mail. Not only does it make it easier, but I still remember how fun it was to get things like that in the mail as a child. As a teacher, I've had...

I enjoyed The Happiest Baby on the Block and The Baby Whisperer. My personal favorite was 12 Hours Sleep in 12 Weeks. I'm a person who needs a schedule and step-by-step directions, but I didn't...

I'm so ashamed of my school with this topic, because at most the student would be suspended for a day. I really feel like our administration does not take threats like this seriously enough. I feel...
