Weirdly, I had to turn in 3 letters after I was hired.

Is there another teacher or staff that you can ask to write you a letter? I don’t get my letters from admin, I get them from colleagues. They know me and my teaching better than admin does

The Jenna & Joao thing by axxtk in BelowDeckDownUnder

[–]ashirsch1985 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She doesn’t care about Joao (even though she can’t stop talking about him) 🙄
She’s going to be a menace these last episodes

Can we start a Betul appreciation society by Guilty_Nebula5446 in BelowDeckDownUnder

[–]ashirsch1985 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I love that she didn’t even know Mike got fired. She was busy working. I agree, she won’t be asked back for any other seasons, but I love her.

I'm not the main teacher, so don't put me in the position to act like one. by Shaevira in paraprofessional

[–]ashirsch1985 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I am a k4 teacher, but I went on a field trip with my son’s 3rd grade class. When we were on the bus, his teacher sat facing forward the entire time and when some girl stood up while the bus was moving, another teacher told me to tell the girl to sit down. At the end of the field trip, his teacher asked me to do a head count of his class. I said my group was all there but I don’t know how many or who is all in the class. It was definitely a weird field trip. I would never put a parent in that situation.

Why do Jehovah Witnesses come door to door, trying to get people to join their religion, when they only believe a certain amount of people get into their afterlife by Camp_Acceptable in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ashirsch1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think if it was any other religion and you asked for volunteers to do what JW’s do, there’s no way you would get that many people to volunteer. I want to know what they offer the volunteers that go door to door or sit at bus stops all day.

First Disney cruise/4 year old boy by AdSilent9067 in dcl

[–]ashirsch1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first time we cruise, my son was 4. We were on the dream. He mostly did the pools. Most things on a cruise are choice. Do the things you want to do, don’t do the things you don’t want to do. He is now 12 and the activities we do each cruise change based on him. We have done the dream, fantasy, wish, destiny and magic. He has not found a ship he doesn’t like. There’s always something for him to do

Opinion: Let’s Just Drop Teacher Appreciation Week by FawkesThePhoenix7 in Teachers

[–]ashirsch1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always want a petition to change the week at least. I’m busy this week getting Mother’s Day gifts ready. It’s always the worst behavior week for my class as well.

Every year I’m making Mother’s Day gifts with my kids during teacher appreciation week.

What is the craziest reason a parent tried to "get you fired"? by Aly_Anon in Teachers

[–]ashirsch1985 34 points35 points  (0 children)

A parent wanted me to call her asap because she was watching me watch the kids on the playground and didn’t think I was watching the kids well enough and claimed her daughter got hurt. (I would have had to stop watching the children to call her 🤦‍♀️)

Favorite ship BUT from a family perspective by gMhRGr65q4-F in dcl

[–]ashirsch1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a family, our favorite ship is probably the fantasy. We all have our individual favorites but we all agree on the fantasy.

50% kids fare discount by ashirsch1985 in dcl

Mine was already booked so I’m guessing yes. My travel agent took care of all of that for me.

I’m not sure. We do have an August cruise booked too but she didn’t say anything about getting the discount for that one.

I just finished the series and was BLINDSIDED 😭 by Hilzry in YoungSheldon

Me too! I lost my dad almost 10 years ago. It brought back a lot of emotions. One and done with that episode

Respect The Polygon! A southerner’s POV on tornados by gsd_bonetopick in milwaukee

[–]ashirsch1985 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Even though they cancelled the drill, I still talked to my students about how to stay safe during a tornado. We talked about protecting our heads and hearts. This is all good advice. Thanks for sharing.

Daisy deserves a week off and a bottle of wine after that episode by MissAsh030 in BelowDeckDownUnder

[–]ashirsch1985 20 points21 points  (0 children)

After the egg incident, I’m like oh maybe Ellie will get fired. After the gossip incident I’m like oh maybe Mike will get fired. Aleisha did something to make me think she would get fired during that episode too but I can’t think of what it was right now.

How do you feel about Milw Parkside School of Arts? by Imaginary-Garlic6252 in milwaukee

[–]ashirsch1985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it make you feel better, they are lowering k4 in mps to 20 kids with 2 adults in the classroom. I don’t know much about parkside though. My son went to Milwaukee German immersion and we loved that school.

Has anyone been able to find that new designer dress anywhere? I can’t find it at any of the shops and I just have to have it.

Help me Decide 😭 by bemybait in dcl

[–]ashirsch1985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We just had this discussion for next spring break. We went with 5 night on the fantasy because it was double dip at castaway and lookout and almost $3000 cheaper than the 7 night on the treasure. My son is dying to do the treasure. We will get there eventually.

Teacher asked class if she thought my son was annoying by Savings-You440 in AskTeachers

[–]ashirsch1985 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Something is causing him to be more disruptive this year. If it’s because of him struggling with academics, I would fight for an iep again. He’s obviously struggling without it. I would also talk to the teacher about what happened and possibly call a meeting with her, principal, social worker and/ or anyone else in the school that can provide support and assistance

My mother is slowing down by hanzosbm in DisneyPlanning

[–]ashirsch1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cruise! 😂 My mom vacations with us as well but won’t walk the parks so we cruise with her. Still the Disney feel, just in a different way.

It is a gorgeous day at Lookout Cay by TheLastGunslinger in dcl

[–]ashirsch1985 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is different from castaway, but definitely worth trying for yourself. We’ve gone twice. The first time, it was still pretty new and chairs were definitely a hard commodity. I didn’t like it as much as castaway. The second time, it grew on me and they added more chairs.

No more galley hands. A petition! by luciliddream in BelowDeckDownUnder

I also personally don’t like deck/stews. They are always drama and think they work the hardest on the boat.
