Unfortunately, double dipping is impossible. Coursework starts full-time immediately and obviously I can't be in two places at once. This is so...
I have been teaching for 8 years. I LOVE aspects of my job but I also know the classroom is not where I want to retire. I have been seriously...
I'm wondering the same thing. Or do you take 5 points by clicking 5 times?
I made shredded buffalo chicken in the crockpot. I'll dice some celery and sprinkle blue cheese crumbles in a wrap.
My state is dead last and it comes as no shock. The state is trying to dismantle public ed. This year my class size is reasonable but I don't...
My P would fight to keep me in the classroom instead of forcing you to do this training. So silly and I'm sorry you have to miss 4 days. Hope...
I think there's some truth to what your professor is saying. You might also find your school or district gives you no choice. I am required to...
I consider myself super lucky. I have a laser copier and a color inkjet. If they took these I'd lose my mind. Hope you win this STUPID battle!!

Last year I thought about quitting every single day. There were lots of tears. I even came on here to announce that it was my last year teaching...

I got lots of blank stares at math yesterday when I introduced comparison problems. I teach the PIPS model for solving - we identify the Problem...
I've made a mistake and I need to fix it. I set up a rewards system for my 2nd graders with prizes ranging from 5-200 points. With the...
We're doing 3 this year. Parents are being asked for $18 and they have the option to pay over 3 installments. My school is Title 1.
I teach 2nd. I tell my students I expect words on my word wall and those in their personal word wall books to be spelled correctly. Often I draft...
I prefer Scholastic. My school tends to have a lot of struggling readers and I found Time to be too "high."
Surprisingly, most kids ignore him or get right back on track when I give them 'the look.' To the suggestion of sending him to see a 6th grade...
I know exactly what you're going through. Thankfully I 'recovered' because I think it's mostly caused by severe winter blues. I'm bracing myself...
I have a student who tends to be a bit defiant. I have dealt with MUCH worse, but this child is my challenging student this year. He can behave in...
Love this
