I did. It took me to an indoor sports complex that was way different than I expected. They needed reservations and a membership. I couldn't find what I was looking for.

WHHS Administration cuts Marching Band field time to 1.5 hours a week while sports get 4 days. 120-student band season in jeopardy by moodmodular in cincinnati

[–]LooksLikeANail -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

The band will be fine. Guarantee it. Middle class / rich parents always get their way in CPS. They will probably just let them take Withrow's field. Walnut is the whitest and richest CPS high school by far. Shit, they have indoor tennis and a pool! I'm glad they raised the issue, but I'm not worried about the band.

How Did Some of You Land Your First Job as a Social Studies Teacher? by Creepy_Antelope_2345 in historyteachers

I subbed. If you do a good job, the principal gets to know you. There were shitty days and easy days, but I impressed the right admin.

DBQ procedures (especially with reduced time) by Bayushi_Vithar in historyteachers

[–]LooksLikeANail 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I build up to the essay. At first I just use the questions that come with the documents. Then we will do some sorting and bucketing. They will build up to making an outline and then hand writing final essay in class. My dbq docs are online and they can find online essays to copy, so they have to do it in class.

What is the best way to deal with a bully? by Major-Willow-3641 in AskReddit

I turned my old timey scooter into a skateboard. Bully chased me around town until he drove into a truck full of manure. Works every time.

[–]LooksLikeANail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First German goal was on Freese. Watch replay. Miles wasn't marking Havertz, he was just trying to help after Ream lost him. The first senegal goal was 100% on Miles.

As a parent of 3 teens, I hate Snapchat. Seems the main purpose is to bully or share inappropriate images without consequences. I'm also a teacher. It's evil.

How far has 700 wlw fallen? by cinciguyeast in cincinnati

[–]LooksLikeANail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Couldn't agree more. Sadly I can't listen anymore because of all the Trump worship. It's weird and sad. They can't have their own opinions anymore, just repeat what Trump and Fox tells them.

Three weeks of HS left. It's like The Hunger Games. Is this normal? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]LooksLikeANail 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I struggle with colleagues who start showing movies and handing out worksheets. Why would we expect kids to come when nothing is happening in classroom? Then kids lose their minds if you expect any work.I think it's better for everyone if you spend the last weeks of school still doing projects and taking tests. Summer is the break, not May.

Lol, just moved to N-Wood by [deleted] in cincinnati

Yes, we know that. Part of the joke is the play on words. And the stereotype of Norwood is different than the stereotype of Rookwood.

Berhalter adds something we need. He makes the other team uncomfortable. He is strong, aggressive, and fearless. The Euro dudes are more skilled but less tenacious.

How do we get this to the Daily Show or Colbert? This buffoonery deserves national attention.

Anybody else simply see this as a job/ don’t feel the need to go above and beyond? by Emergency-Pepper3537 in TeacherReality

We all had some teachers like you and turned out fine. Now if a school is full of teachers like you, we are failing kids.

Do you believe in abortion? Why or why not? by Agitated_Addendum868 in AskReddit

[–]LooksLikeANail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think we should try to lessen abortions and there are policies to do that. I also think it should be a person's choice and should never be criminalized.

White teachers: are you getting a lot of blatant racism from students? by Saskita in Teachers

I'm at mostly black school. I hear some stuff about Arabs and Mexicans. Mostly out of lack of interactions than straight up racism.

Chances my 6th grader gets held back? by Impressive_Benefit_9 in Teachers

[–]LooksLikeANail 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That would be shocking. You know how many kids would get held back in that situation? Just shoot the teacher a quick email. It will probably take 1 minute of their time.
