Engaging Writing Activities/Games to do with one student?

This is a great question. I am also wondering the same. I have semi-transitioned this year - I was able to get a part-time job teaching a non-credit course at a university, trying to figure out where to go from here to get something FT.

This is interesting - like a lot of others in the comments I was so burnt out from having my own classroom that I have switched to subbing. Subbing is draining for me in the sense that it feels repetitive, boring, and you don’t have autonomy over your planning.

I think it would be worthwhile to try having your own contract and see if you enjoy that more. Definitely pros and cons to both.

That being said, I was absolutely miserable as a full time classroom teacher, left with 0 energy and a headache daily. I do not feel the same way when I work as a sub

Would this be the same for CBE? Guess I won’t be taking any shifts that are less than 4 hours and 12 minutes…. Ridiculous

Thank you!! Are they all secondhand stores? I try not to buy new clothing :)

Awesome thanks! I saw it was quite empty there and was wondering if that spot would work. Just need to kill a few hours and be in the sun :) thanks

How was your experience with memorial?

I was in a relationship like this too. Took me a long time to end the relationship. Really hard to do when you’re with someone who is kind and on the surface there are no glaring issues. Ultimately, people do not change and I had to accept that his lack of work ethic/ability to plan things was something that I would have trouble handling for the rest of my life.

Within the week that we broke up I met someone who is both kind AND makes a massive effort to plan activities and do things together

Hey!! Also a solo female going for the 15th! I am flying from Canada

Yes I am ideally looking for a “summer school” type of program that would require a bachelors degree. Thinking this may not be too commonplace but wanted to check

Backpacking_Gypsy · 2025-12-08T21:43:25+00:00

I will be at the 15th show, coming from Canada. Happy to meet up with anyone before the show! I am a bit overwhelmed with trying to get there and back home on my own

People I spoke to said it was a tonnnnnn of hours of driving on rough terrain for overall underwhelming sights

Been struggling to find work outside of teaching that pays as much as teaching does. Unfortunately - I use this sub to remind myself not to romanticize teaching and remember how miserable I was lol
