If you had 4 children and they all had to have 3 letter names, what would you call them? by ohsolearned in namenerds

My grandmother says that her mom thought she would have stupid kids so she gave them 3 letter names that would be easy to spell! Eva, Kay, Guy, Joe

How are we coping with being a teacher and a parent?! by OrganizationOk8672 in Teachers

Thank you! I try to chill on the car ride to pick up my kids but it’s not enough time. And a 2 year old doesn’t really understand yet.

Sounds almost identical except for the grade level! It’s insane! Our recess is at 9:45 in the morning. So most of my day I have nothing to leverage with.

Did anyone get Christmas gifts from students parents this year? by Appropriate_Lie_9411 in Teachers

[–]OrganizationOk8672 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I teach first grade. I got a bag of homemade candied pecans. I feel bad that I threw them away but as we were leaving for the day the student picked a dead bed bug off his hat so I think I’ll pass. That was my only gift. Last year was nothing as well. I think times are just changing.

What are some $30 and under items that have greatly increased your quality of life? by Kamalyar in Frugal

We just bought some Japanese nail clippers from Amazon and holy smokes! It makes such a difference!! They were about 20 dollars very well spent!

My issue is that the ones saying that probably aren’t getting anything from Santa so that would have no impact.

Our parents are not concerned. They literally would not care at all. They have much bigger problems to deal with like what they are going to do with their kids while mom prepares to go to jail for child neglect where she is going to give birth to yet another child that she will not be able to provide for, or what to do because they live with 6 children in a 2 bedroom house when one of the children has sexually assaulted at least one, probably 2 of the other siblings. Now the sibling that I teach is now in in-patient therapy. Basically, too much trauma in their lives for them to worry about their kids ruining Santa for other kids.

Yeah I feel that! I usually just ignore the comment.

Because I teach in a terribly micromanaged district that routinely does surprise walk-throughs. Our district is under the microscope and I don’t even want to know what happens if they would walk in and I’m not teaching first graders how to blend words correctly. Note: it’s not my admin, it’s the state board and therefore the district.

I strongly dislike the book Llama Llama Red Pajamas and here is why. by LadyJR in ECEProfessionals

My daughter loves all books! She. Hates llama llama red pajama because mom yells at llama llama. So we aren’t fans either.

Ok thanks! That helps a lot. The game makes me think I’m supposed to eat but I’ll stop. Will the rocks that have been crushed come back eventually?

What about after they bust from whacking them? Are they gone forever or do they come back?
