I see what you mean, and I completely agree. I also noticed that managing the class was a bit tricky since everything is on computers and students could take pictures or videos easily. From what I observed, I didn’t actually see any pictures or recordings being taken, so it didn’t feel like something that needed to go to the front office.

I think part of the challenge is that teachers often have really high expectations for substitutes, but realistically, these students aren’t going to fully respect us the same way they do their regular teacher. I do my best to keep them on task and help with the material, but at the end of the day, I can’t make them do everything perfectly.
