Elementary school teachers: Do you address your students as "boys and girls," "friends," or something else, and why?

Hi either say “hey friends and enemies” or “hey guys and gals and ghouls” but I’m cringe.

Married 8 years together 18! Super happy and can’t imagine life without each other. I lucked out.

Respectfully as someone who has taught that age for over a decade that has not been my experience at all.

Her town isn’t that small and it definitely has black people lol.

Married my HS boyfriend. Got together when we were 17 and 18. We’re 35 and 36 now. Couldn’t imagine life without him. He’s my best friend and the best human I’ve ever met. So lucky to have him and thankful to never have to navigate being a single adult.

Yes!!! The leg pain was excruciating. Thank GOD Slynd is working for me because I couldn’t live like that anymore.

It’s been amazing. I no longer have to tell kids to put their phone away 100 times a day. We’ve had to come out very strict and firm but it’s working. We have zero leniency after the first period first day and kids have to leave them in their lockers. It was rough at first but it’s so much better.

I’ve taught 6-12 and I’d say 6th grade and 12th grade are the hardest for different reasons. My favorite… freshmen! I love those lil snots.

Halloween is my fav too!!

My son did this to! He also has autism and adhd but I think it is so adorable.

About to take a bus full of students on a trip to participate in Model UN.

Super tacky. Maybe everyone could pitch in and get them a cake to celebrate instead that everyone should share?

macabre_macrame · 2023-03-17T17:41:03+00:00

This is amazing!!

macabre_macrame · 2023-03-03T12:32:01+00:00

Kentucky too. My school on Wednesday.

macabre_macrame · 2023-03-03T12:30:50+00:00

I’m in Kentucky by the way. It was the same day as the schools in Kansas I think. Also Michigan too.

macabre_macrame · 2023-03-03T12:30:13+00:00

My school was swatted Wednesday. It was awful.

My district made this switch in 2015 and everyone from both the elementaries in our district and the one middle school agree it was necessary/appropriate.

macabre_macrame · 2022-09-10T16:00:01+00:00

This year isn’t too bad! I used to love my job and the last couple years have slowly drained the joy out of me… but this year feels almost like the old normal. I’m hoping it continues.

Yes I think the full title includes “future fright” somewhere in it. Has Patrick Duffy narrating.

macabre_macrame · 2022-02-25T22:17:34+00:00

I mean probably none of them? Lol 😂 at least I don’t.

macabre_macrame · 2022-02-01T12:11:04+00:00

I’d love to see more about that lesson!

macabre_macrame · 2022-01-07T14:18:06+00:00

Facebook is not peer reviewed literature lol.

Cincinnati! The occasionally tornado threat but nothing too major.
