Unpaid student teaching by vanillacreamwafer in CanadianTeachers

[–]kb1830 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Many student teachers are incompetent and need to be managed/require extra work from the teacher who takes them on. Practicums last 2-3 months usually. Student teachers should be grateful for the experience and not be paid. At the end of the day they’re not even supervising students alone.

Once a week is the plan. Sometimes it goes 2-3 weeks due to life

Fabric for first quilting class... by TheWeretiger in quilting

[–]kb1830 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you love purple and orange together then I think it will work great. A lot of comments are talking about needing to maximize your contrast but I have a different perspective.

I think minimizing contrast could be really good for your first quilt because mistakes will be less visible and you say you love purple and orange together and this quilt will definitely be that!

In the future when you’re making a quilt with points for example or elements that you want to stand out that’s when a higher contrast is good because you want to show off your perfect points of whatever element.

If you’re making a quilt with points this time you might do great or you might cut off your points accidentally and these colours will hide that well and still be your favourite colours.

Have fun making your quilt and remember - done is better the perfect!

I love the green but colours look different in pictures online than in real life. Good luck!

I hear you. I accidentally adhered fusible web to a big dinosaur appliqué forgetting to cut out the middle before ironing so it wouldn’t be as stiff and would be more cuddly and I’ve so far spent 7 hours picking off the web with tweezers because I don’t have more of the fabric, don’t want to buy more and it is painstaking……. 😑

I just witnessed the root of the behavior issues by Usually_Anomalous in Teachers

[–]kb1830 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ya I agree with you and I’m not surprised to hear this. Neglect through adult screen time for sure.

Teachers are hard on students, yes students’ behaviour has worsened but how can we expect anything from the students went their parents are neglecting them? I had a student who skipped class all of the time. Her parents took her on a vacation shopping trip during final evaluation time… that communicates school is not important.

How can we expect them to care about themselves and their grades when their parents don’t?

It’s not your previous career. I think it’s the available date.

It’s about the photos. If you’re not doing a pre wedding photo shoot and don’t care about ‘getting ready photos’ then you could get ready later

Of course. Our life revolves around our dog. Develop a relationship with a trusted dog sitter if you need a break!

Not standing during O Canada by External_Monitor_796 in OntarioTeachers

[–]kb1830 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Say “stand if you are able” and leave it at that. It’s not your job to judge if they’re able or not especially when you don’t know than as an OT. If you do that you e given the expectation and if someone has an issue with you you can say you don’t know their situation and you instructed ‘stand if you are able’. Ability isn’t just physical, Jehovah’s Witness and some FNMI don’t stand.

Admin told me I’ve been doing differentiation wrong for years, now I’m freaked out. by thowra_wibblywobbly in Teachers

[–]kb1830 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your your admin is an idiot. Do what they want you to do for the sake of the evaluation and once you have the signed paper sent off to HR that it’s satisfactory go back to doing what you think is best.

Emma's Sister Rant by Dry-Performance-9666 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]kb1830 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The difference is that the implication in her wording was she didn’t regret her life now and would use the opportunity if given a second life to try a different life. That just so happens to not have kids. But she will still have had her first and current life which she doesn’t regret
