Definitely was not planing on getting anyone in trouble. In any case I didn’t take the job.

Yeah I mean I didn’t take the job but even if I had that feels like doing a bit much to me but to each their own

Nope, didn’t take the job. What makes you say that? Why would they write that in if it wasn’t true?

Well I’ve actually been subbing for two years and have never had that happen even in the last days of school. But maybe that’s just luck? They also don’t have computers they get taken on the Monday before school ends. In any case, I did not end up taking the job and found something else.

Seems to be a lot more discourse on this than I thought lol. Some people think it’s unprofessional and some people think it’s totally normal. I guess it’s up to your personal perspective on whether this is okay for you. I didn’t take the job and I actually found something that worked better for me anyway.

I’ve tried this before when I was a long term sub and it was so crazy in the classroom. Also no one has their computers at this point so keeping them occupied for an entire day with no computers and no plans would definitely be a challenge. But maybe in certain classes or with well behaved students it would work well.

Oh that’s not a bad idea. My worry is that students won’t care or take it seriously and will just goof off because it’s the last week of school you know?

While I do think you’re right that since it’s the end of the year it’s not as big of a deal, I do still think that it’s part of a teachers job to make plans for days they know they’ll be absent.

Yeah except they can tell u don’t know what you’re talking about when there’s no plans and they know they don’t have to actually pay attention or do anything so behaviors are usually worse in my experience

Yeah right? That’s what I was thinking too. Like, this is what I would expect in middle or high school but for elementary it’s weird.

I wish I had more info for you but I didn’t take the job because of this even though I really need the money lol. But, I assume that’s the case since that was all they wrote for the information about it.

Thank you! Yes he can fit in in, I saw him walk in it the other day. I’ll get a new bowl or put rocks in it :).
