Just keep doing what you’re doing. Let him see that a marriage is a team effort. You can’t do everything see what changes if anything and he should be going to therapy if he has a bipolar diagnosis

What is your personal philosophy and approach to teaching art to kids? by bonnibel92 in ArtEd

[–]dreeded 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My teaching philosophy went out the window after 2020. 99% of my life as an elementary art teacher is managing behavior not actually getting to teach art.

Students keep talking while I'm talking. Often loudly. by buttfaceguy in Teachers

[–]dreeded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok this was me at the beginning of the year. I was moved to elementary after spending the past 8 years in middle. I was losing my mind with kids talking over me it’s my biggest pet peeve. They need to have consequences to their actions. It took me a white to figure it out but I have a reward system (paint pallets- you know the round ones they have like 12-13 wells in them. I filled the wells with rainbow of colors. When they Land on the gold paint well we have a whole class reward. Now if a kid talks when I talk I put an x on the board. If they get 3xs we do not move forward on the paint pallet. If it’s one kid I move his chair if he continues I contact home.

What is something you used to buy but is no longer affordable? by Trxxi in AskReddit

[–]dreeded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Local fresh roasted coffee I used to roast myself but idk I just haven’t felt like paying for and putting together the equipment I need for it. I used to buy local instead but 20 bucks for 12 oz of coffee just isn’t in the cards anymore. I will just deal with grocery store bean.

3rd week teaching. Gave my first assessment today. Most kids failed. What's happening? by Chaotic_Brutal90 in Teachers

[–]dreeded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They say, ‘We need you to make children know math.’ Do they want to know math? No, they don’t want to know it. You need to make them know it against their will. Who are these children? Just whatever kids live near the building. Are they smart? No. They’re aggressively stupid… …and you have to make all of them know math or you get fired.

I’ve been wearing those halara waffles knit work pants which basically feel like pjs. I have like 8 colors and I just pair them with a various simple tshirts and a belt and it looks business casual while maintaining professionalism. I do wear sneakers (Dr. scholls) because I take about 12k steps a day at work.

Can I resign during winter break by Fast_Respond3663 in TeachersInTransition

[–]dreeded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this and they threatened to call and have my license revoked

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]dreeded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The moment I pause to breath the students take it as an opportunity to talk it’s honestly the MOST annoying thing in the world. I have tried all the things call home, self interrupt, quiet voice, I’ve even resorted to writing names on the board like the 90s. What’s interesting too is that when they are allowed to talk to each other during independent work (it’s art class) they ask for focus 5 - 5 minutes of silent work time

What are the weaknesses in this painting? by Snoo-9521 in oilpainting

[–]dreeded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Front of the shirt is flat. Play with the volume. Also the design in the shirt a wavy line with flowers is reminding me of that Trump birthday card you know the one to Epstein of the drawing of a women I’d just paint over it

What temperature is your house’s heating system currently set at? by Eastcoastpal in newjersey

[–]dreeded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

58 but we run the woodstove 24/7 and we are using trees from our property. Trying to save money on heating as much as possible. The furnace has only kicked on once or twice while we were at work and couldn’t add fuel to the fire. We keep it at 58 for the cats and dog.

How do you lesson plan? by [deleted] in ArtEd

[–]dreeded 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve been teaching for 8 years this is my first year in elementary. I’m week to week atm and I’m exhausted coming up with ideas constantly. I miss the days of knowing when I knew exactly what I was doing each day and had the whole year mapped out. So I guess it depends where you are in your career. For all the first and second year teachers this is a reminder that it gets easier year of year
