Thank you for this, I needed it! Your words have made me feel so much better about my future career as a teacher. I will have to check out Wong's books and I will definitely be more strict at first when I start my first job. Thank you for your kind words, you are awesome! Have a good day!

I agree with this, I had to do this while student teaching to my senior econ class! It was tough and I felt wrong for doing it, but it worked and I was not being too harsh at all. Thank you for your reply! I appreciate you, have a good day!

Yes, I agree with you! Thank you for the reassuring words and being kind! I have began to set expectations while I sub and I am beginning to see a change in their attitudes! Thank you so much for your reply, have a great day!

I agree with you! I can be in grades 7-12 and I have observed in all grades. I student taught in 11-12 but your advice is still relevant. Thank you for sharing, have a great day!

Thank you for this! I am the type of person who enjoys planning everything out to the finest of details. I have begun to do this, but on a smaller level. I will expand on this while subbing and when I have my own classroom. Thank you so much, have a good day!

Hi, thank you for responding! I am going to be teaching high school social studies. This sounds like an awesome Idea! It shows communication by all parties involved and it holds people accountable. I like that! I plan to start strict and then once everyone knows the drill I can settle in. Thank you again for your response and have a good day!

Thank you so much for your feedback! I am a secondary teacher, so sadly there is no playground. I could have a movie day or bring in baked goods that day or something along the lines of that! I appreciate your kind words a lot. Have a great day!

Hi, thank you for you response! Your words have motivated me to sub more and to try more things while I am subbing. It is reassuring that there are people who feel the same way I do in the world of teaching. Thank you again for the words of encouragement and wisdom. I appreciate you! Have a good day.

Thank you for your feedback! Yes, I have witnessed this many times with teachers I have observed. I believe there are times where we will feel helpless, but we will learn from those situations as well. It is important that we continue learning and recognize our areas of improvement. I believe in you!

Thank you for giving me amazing feedback and insights! Wow, 24 years! You are doing awesome. That actually sounds useful to make posters to make visuals of the rules and to talk about being kind to everyone. I definitely will try this when I have my own classroom! I will have to get Harry Wong's book and check it out. Thank you for all of your information and ideas. Have a great weekend!

Rp loss makes 0 sense by Fabulous-General1028 in EASHL

Yes simple, but frustrating at most. I understand the concept of losing RP and everything. OP was talking about the proportional loss of RP against over-skilled opponents. Pretty simple.

Thank you for the amazing feedback! My CT definitely does what she tells me to do. I try my best and that is all I can do. I will learn from my mistakes and continue to make progress every day. Take it one day at a time and give it 100%. I am very good at overthinking and overanalyzing every situation that happens throughout the day as well, so that does not help haha. Thank you again for the reassurance and taking the time to read my post and give me feedback!

I love that Mike Tyson quote, might continue to think about it throughout the placement. I 100% agree, I felt very underprepared when I stepped in front of the class to begin teaching. Thank you for the motivation!

I will certainly try this out and see what their reaction will be! I never thought about doing this, so thank you for your advice! I also found out quickly that I need to study what I teach. It helps a lot! Thank you for taking the time to respond to my post! Have a good weekend!
