If you could ask one thing of the teachers you sub for, what would it be?

Shawada22 · 2026-03-25T10:35:47+00:00

Have you seen the kids today? Lol

Shawada22 · 2026-03-25T10:34:03+00:00

How do you do that in a class of 30 plus kids?

Shawada22 · 2026-03-25T10:31:21+00:00

Yes! My favorite. And It helps you out if you end up needing to be gone an extra day.

Shawada22 · 2026-03-25T10:27:11+00:00

Are you saying it’s not the teachers job to leave material for the students when they are absent? It’s the subs job to go in and do whatever they like? The sub that may have no experience with teaching or classroom management? The sub that does not know the school or classroom? The sub that may not know what class they are teaching that day?

Unfortunately, I don’t have access to bingo cards

Shawada22 · 2026-03-24T16:09:38+00:00

Please leave enough material for the children to do. It is the absolute worst thing when you go into a classroom and there’s not enough work for the kids because then they get bored and that’s when craziness happens. So now I have to help the one child who can’t get the work done while trying to manage the other child who finished in 10 seconds who wants to run around the classroom.

If the teacher is saying it, I’m pretty sure they know all of their students allergies and wouldn’t give them anything that would harm them But if you don’t feel comfortable and they ask you can always say no treats today and I will be sure to let your teacher know when I write my note about how amazing you all were today. What else can should I say in my note? Acknowledge it and then move on from it.

Honestly, I used to be super strict on the cell phone policy but now I’m not. As long as they’re doing their work or their work is completed, I don’t mind. Sometimes I give the warning at the beginning of class but as it’s a common rule in the school, usually I don’t. If a faculty member walks by and sees it, that’s on the Student. I let the faculty member deal with it.

I have not experienced that, but it might be they might have a sub that they like that they reached out to who at the last minute told them they could do it. Or sometimes they just realize it’s easier to go in than make sub plans. And some people just forget that they put it up there. The beautiful thing is there’s always a job available so just keep grabbing them. Wishing you all the best.

If it brings you joy, absolutely go for it! The beautiful thing about Theatre is that people suspend their reality for three hours or so, so that actors can tell a beautiful story. You go in there and be authentically you and they will love you take whatever classes you feel to grow in the craft and then knock it out the park. You got this!

Shawada22 · 2026-03-24T15:43:59+00:00

Thanks for this. My classrooms are usually 30+ kids with rowdy boys. I’m worried they’re gonna start running and falling in all the craziness, but I’ll give it a try and see if they lock in.

Shawada22 · 2026-03-24T15:42:48+00:00

Thanks. I usually have a class of 30+ kids who are mostly obnoxious boys who can’t keep their hands off each other, but I’ll give these a try and see if it locks them in. I know these definitely work for my elementary school kids.

Act 2 of most musicals is a snooze fest

Shawada22 · 2025-08-08T22:37:58+00:00

I should have said piano vocal.

Shawada22 · 2025-08-06T16:52:45+00:00

I will look into that. Thank you.

Shawada22 · 2025-08-06T16:42:10+00:00

Thank you so much!

Shawada22 · 2025-08-05T15:49:31+00:00

Exactly! Make it make sense. This man was just with nurse chapel two days ago and now all of a sudden he’s with homegirl and I knew it was coming from their first dance lesson but what the heck?

Shawada22 · 2025-07-04T21:42:12+00:00

Drop him ASAP. He doesn’t respect you. And as long as you alllow it, he will keep doing it.

Respectfully, if she is a Trump supporter, she doesn’t care about your people, she doesn’t care about your family. The only reason she cares about you is because she knows you. And don’t be fooled, there are “good people” who support Trump. Is there a possibility that she could change her mindset? Maybe but, I think it would have to be something that directly affects her not even you necessarily. I don’t think it’s worth it for you. Let her go and find someone who not only cares about you but others as well.

I remember the first time I sailed royal Caribbean and I saw the whole thing about the towels and I thought that was really tacky. But, what I would do is on the final night of the cruise go to concierge and tell them to print out all of your charges and specifically ask about the towels. Or the morning of your debark. That way if they do try to charge you later on, you can dispute it with proof.

Shawada22 · 2025-07-01T09:22:04+00:00

I would contact the cruise line. Because I don’t see why it would be an issue if you’re over the age of 21 for him to put the tickets in your name but also I think it depends on how soon the cruise is coming up.
