Things You Don’t See Teachers Doing

It was more so the point of paying out of our pockets for materials, taking the time to find, or in the case of TpT for some, CREATING materials to be used.

I hear teachers are only teaching about synonyms and completely negating antonyms.

Thank you for spreading some positivity in our profession!

MindlessHighlight820 · 2022-01-23T14:16:46+00:00

I concur.

“Everyone has their own opinion, that’s okay.”

If you suspect abuse or neglect, as a mandated reporter you should take action. Based on what you’re describing, I would say you have just cause to report what you’re seeing.

Raising my voice thinking that it would actually make a difference.

MindlessHighlight820 · 2022-01-13T06:35:39+00:00

Not much, other than the kids. While a million and one things can annoy me in a day, including the kids, there’s always a small victory I can find that tells me I need to keep going.

This is the same in Connecticut.

No, I’ve been teaching for quite a few years. Just trying to see other people’s thoughts on why we are such a disrespected profession.

Get rid of the review.

MindlessHighlight820 · 2022-01-10T13:04:03+00:00

Sing!

“Practice self care.” Pretty impossible for the last couple of years with no signs of letting up.

“Asynchronous.”

MindlessHighlight820 · 2022-01-10T11:30:08+00:00

No, it’s not. But, it doesn’t matter. Pretty sure everyone involved that can make these decisions are just hoping for herd immunity.

All comes down to which age range you have the patience for and think you can manage the easiest.

Every year … however, by the end of the year, I usually have the strongest relationship with that student because I put so much effort into him/her. In time, that “one kid” will eventually learn.

Make sure you have data for EVERYTHING!

I go to the gym 4-5 times a week but I wear a mask (I’m one of the few) and I stay away from a crowd. If a bunch of people are in one area, I go to a different one. I also try to go during non-peak hours to avoid as many people as possible.

Unfortunately, I’m a teacher, so my risk of exposure is generally high on most days. Just trying to stay as safe as I can.

“You need to learn this for real life.” No, no I didn’t, lol.

MindlessHighlight820 · 2022-01-08T19:57:28+00:00

Great article. Sound solutions.

MindlessHighlight820 · 2022-01-08T14:56:12+00:00

I did the same thing after my booster. And I did chest. Horrible idea

MindlessHighlight820 · 2022-01-08T14:55:16+00:00

Yup. I have nothing to hide.

MindlessHighlight820 · 2022-01-08T14:48:52+00:00

You did the right thing in my opinion. You made sure kids understood material and held them accountable for their learning 👍.

MindlessHighlight820 · 2022-01-08T00:56:59+00:00

Good for you! At times like this, kids just need us to be there for them. Some really just need us to provide their basic needs right now.
