I was finally reinstated into the program after some hoopla about why I wasn't working when I was. But in the meantime, I was looking at other...
Great idea. But your plan should more follow this: -I'm sorry I'm out, but thanks for coming! -Please have students read/re-read xxxxxx...
Yeah, we're arguing about different scenarios. If a sub disregards plans completely, then yes the sub sucks. I'm talking about teachers who leave...
Speaking of subs, I was out Friday on an unplanned sickness. I remember HATING subbing for teachers who take unplanned sick days because you know...
The classroom teacher can win. Leave a detailed plan, but accept that the sub may do things different. As long as things get done, why does it...

I was thinking of doing it after my 3rd year. lol. . From what I heard, my district gives 15% raise for anyone that is national board certified....
Your concerns are absolutely foreign to me. I worked at an inner city elementary school for several years and have subbed for two years at various...
Kids going to the bathroom solo is nothing new or special pre or post 9/11. Wtf? Yes, even as early as first or second grade. Heck, at...
Before, if you hold a single subject credential, you can simply take and pass the CSET for the subject to add an authorization. But now for every...
