If I didn't HAVE to go, I didn't! Be kind to yourself; you've done so much for so long-it's OK to let go...enjoy all your "lasts" and know that retirement is wonderful!

SoCal

They'll be shutting down as of 12/31/17. They're owned by Blackboard. No renewals, and they're supposed to be pro-rating any accounts owed refunds...bummer!

Sun In

Anyone remember this stuff? You sprayed it into your hair and were supposed to tell everyone "the sun did it"? Turned my hair some pretty unnatural colors!

Hi, Everyone,

Three weeks to go, and it's "pay-me-now-or-pay-me-later-when-'school-hits the-fan'" time!

This is a question for those of you who administer PARCC: does anyone know where I can...

Teacherweb

My team posts weekly homework, which I scan on the office copier and upload. The kids also get a "hard copy", but if they lose it or are out, they can download.

We usually put permission forms...

I can tell that you are far from selfish, and you're concerned about your class. But think of this: what kind of a job are you going to do with the pain you're in? If you KNOW you're going to be...

My class loves Go Noodle, and asks for it if I happen to get too busy to remember to throw it into my day. They're thirds. But long before You Tube, I had students get up and stretch for the...

Please don't "flame"

Ma Bethany,
All I can say is, "to each her own". No one is asking anyone to "do a lot of that". So please don't flame me.

I don't consider it "mean" to build up a class by making them feel that...

Teams?

Bless you-that's a HUGE number of third graders! Right now, it sounds as though it's "all of them" vs. "you"...you can't win with those odds. Can't say that I've had a class that big, but I've had...

Considering it

We have to be available for two half hours a week before or after school ("don't call it 'extra help'") by contract. I'm seriously considering starting up a weekly before or after school "club" for...
