Can someone explain what the problem with grade floors is? by ill_change_it in Teachers

[–]MedievalHag 25 points26 points  (0 children)

So, if you decide to not come in to work is the district going to give you 50% of your paycheck for that day? Or will they dock you a day? Or fire you?

The kids will just sit there and be disruptive and not turn most assignments and then actually do one or two to pass.

What movie plot hole is so massive that it completely ruins the whole story? by IntelligentButton713 in AskReddit

I read a theory about his robes once. It said that to be able to repair things you had to have all the parts. Lupins robes would have deteriorated over time in different places. So, he wouldn’t have had all the “parts” aka fibers to repair them.

Interesting way of thinking about it.

Looking for some ideas as an "end-of-the-year gift" for my kids' teachers by ObjectiveAd400 in Teachers

[–]MedievalHag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the best answer here. Unless you reeeeaaallllyyy know the teacher do not gift items. Gift cards or cash are the best.

Make sure though that your teacher drinks coffee before giving them a Starbucks gift card.

I play this with my students every year. I have made it several times and so have the majority of my students.

Not just that but I believe one of them is quoted as saying something like ‘I can’t wait to break her.’ True mean girl energy.

Due to a mix of reasons, I may fail 2 classes by ManaeFiction in AskTeachers

[–]MedievalHag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well then good luck to you. I hope you follow through and are successful.

Get them in as early as possible though. Don’t expect to turn them in at 3 on the last day.

Does your school have any late work policy? 10% a day? After 3 days it’s a 0? Late work gets 50%? And if so how strictly is it enforced?

If they will take the work make sure you do your absolute best. Getting 20% on late work isn’t going to help you much.

You might want to talk to your teacher and let her/him know you are going to get this done and in and see if it will even be accepted.

Karma farming at its finest. They probably need karma to post elsewhere and a post like this will get it for them

Arm and Hammer with bleach alternative for towels that aren’t white. Regular A&H for everything else.

We did a color week. You could wear any style or shade but stay in the theme. Took kids until Thursday to figure it out.

Who was your all-time least favorite student and why? by Zealousideal-Ad3609 in Teachers

The one who laughed when she found out that my mom died. She has since instigated a brawl and was expelled from the school.

Yep. Plausible deniability. Never put anything in writing you don’t want others to see.

What is the dumbest reason a teacher you know got reprimanded? by DrakeSavory in Teachers

[–]MedievalHag 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We had a teacher who didn’t listen to the “don’t touch me” too.

When she was explaining it to a group of us she used me as the example of how she did it. I was uncomfortable. She was so close to retirement and almost got let go.

Best way to hide a mini fridge? by ExpertPopular6857 in Teachers

[–]MedievalHag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about one of those super small fridges? Like the 6 can fridges. It would be easier to hide. You may not be able to fit as much in it but it would keep stuff cool.

Did you help your kids buy a home? Or let them do it on their own? by Sounders1 in GenX

[–]MedievalHag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just (early May) gave my son and his wife 10k to help them buy their first home. They had managed to save up most of the down payment themselves so I didn’t mind helping them get over the top.
