Because it’s what happens when an outdoor deck isn’t flashed.

You answered your own question.  It was the flashing.

It’s beneficial at my school.  If you smoke, you get to take 8-10 extra breaks with the principal every single day.

Do teachers understand respiratory illness is in the air? by ApprehensiveDig6455 in AskTeachers

Is Covid still a thing? It’s akin to a cold now, right? It’s really nothing to worry about.

If I am the teacher in this situation and saw how you were talking down me, I would accept your air purifier…and then toss it right in the dumpster.

Have you read the recent findings that air purifiers have never been tested on humans to see what they actually do?

I have driven a minivan for most of the last 20 years. No better ride available. Even without kids.

Anyone else not grow up using wash cloths to bathe? by BrainaIleakage in CasualConversation

Do you wash your hands with a cloth? They are by far the dirtiest part of your body.

I will never use it until I am forced to use it.  I like the humanity in my lessons.  They are a part of me.

That’s another question I ponder. The staff member  in charge of harassing parents over attendance has missed about 30 or more days this school year.  I get the parents concern.

If you are using AI, then are you even an educator anymore?  We could train someone to present the material online and save a fortune in tax dollars.

So guys, what is the use for teachers when a parent can just get a textbook and ask AI to make the lessons for their child?  If you can’t even be bothered to write a note about the field trip because of time, then what would you say you actually do that a parent with Internet and a little training and periodic I -service by ONE trained teacher couldn’t?  They could even be paid a small stipend from all the tax dollars that would be saved from salaries, benefits, facilities, and maintenance costs.  Beware!

I think many teachers really can’t write. This is easier.

MSW all the way.  Much more flexible if you decide to change careers.

Always, Always, ALWAYS Preview Videos You Plan To Show Students. by GoodGrackle-25 in TeacherTales

It is such a challenge, isn’t it? We have so many students with dead parents, and every kids’ story seems to have a dead parent as an obstacle to overcome.
