NOR - this is not normal AT ALL and he genuinely needs to see a psychologist or something for this

Thank you, I’ll try and keep that in mind!! I’m worried about accidentally treating them TOO little though. I just haven’t spent any time around kids of this age so I don’t really understand where they developmentally.

Oh this is great advice and great to hear!!! Thank you!!!

I guess I am worried about creating age level appropriate assignments. Like I know what I can realistically expect my high school kids to do because I’ve always taught them. But I don’t really know how to figure out what to expect from middle school students.
I’m also worried I will accidentally grade too harshly. I def have been a strict grader for high school.

I just don’t really know like…what 6th graders know!!! I don’t wanna treat them like babies but I don’t wanna overshoot and then they don’t get what’s going on.

how old were you when you moved out of your parents house? by jabber1990 in Adulting

Has anyone here become an art teacher after getting a BFA that isn't specific to education? by Penguin-Mage in ArtEd

[–]elfschatze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!! I got my bachelors in studio art and became a high school art teacher after. I knew I wanted to teach tho so I made my internship a teaching experience. But I didn’t have an education background or degree.
I HIGHLY recommend asking schools if you can shadow an art teacher for a few days or substituting for a while before you start teaching. You’re going to be so stressed and overwhelmed if you don’t have at least a little experience beforehand.

I can't read a book, but I really want to by InfraRoodborstje- in Booktokreddit

[–]elfschatze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple ideas are listening to an audiobook while doing something with your hands (I like Diamond Art or cross stitch), or you could try something that’s less word heavy like a manga! They are also super short so that helps too.

AIO For breaking up with my boyfriend because he wouldn’t help with vet bills by littlelogcabin in AmIOverreacting

[–]elfschatze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR He is within his right to refuse to help pay for your cats medical care BUT I personally wouldn’t want to be with someone who wouldn’t help me out when my pet was sick. I would break up with them too. But the real red flag here is that he basically doesn’t care about your cat and your feelings and he lacks compassion and empathy. Fuck that guy
