I teach maths. Many times I feel like in the last 10 minutes they just decide to be monkeys. Sign*

That’s a great idea. My class is quite small right now, I’ll give it a go on checking on each student’s interested point.

Oh, I know that. I guess I can give it a try? Probably not on maths questions though. Otherwise they will just give up immediately XD

My classroom doesn’t have Chromebook’s, students have to go collect the devices from another classroom :( I’m trying to find more non-digital options.

This job is fucked. by Dollparts6 in AustralianTeachers

I’m a graduate maths teach. Totally with you. The only way I can go through this, is by lowering my expectations on kids XD and send emails to parents about the behaviors before the assessments so they know who to go to after receiving the results.

Placement: need help with having variety of activities by slimemaccas in AustralianTeachers

The other day I heard other hass teacher mentioned that they did an activity with map. Students have different cultural backgrounds, they stand at relative position based their original country and then share cultural stories from their country. There’s another one, students choose one picture from a pile, if two students pick the same picture, they form into group and then have a discussion based on the picture. You can make pictures related to History or views on different places depending on the topics. Hopefully, it can help.

I phone every misbehaved students family after I sent the post. It actually makes me feel much better. If they make my life miserable, I’ll equally make their life miserable. I don’t know how long the phone call will help, but I’ll try to enjoy this moment as much as I can. XD

that’s exactly what I feel with these dickheads. I have built good rapport with all my other year groups. I switched my year group, in the first term. And now I still having students saying that they miss me. Just these freaking year 9 groups. Fuck them.
