General Education

In my high school classroom, during quiet time a student whistles and I can't see who it is
They are obviously just trying to irk me, but it;s during ssr, where we spends 45 minutes reading . I think i know who it is, but I obviously can't accuse without proof, so i just don't do anything, but the learning environment is disrupted. I asked whoever it was to stop, and they continued […]
Free links! Lots of science, space, ELA, ESL, Music, Art, PD, Lesson Plans and resources. Enjoy!
It would be fantastic if we could share a link that is highly beneficial/useful, that doesn't cost a thing to use, no hoops to jump through. I encourage others to add to my links, creating some nice references to have on-hand. You can never have too many resources. I love free when it comes to […]

It's Monday...
Today, I had a parent contact the principal to tell him that it takes me 3-4 days to return homework (the busy practice work kind that we give in elementary to help them develop good habits while also practicing skills, not the meaningful, graded work that secondary teachers send home) and that I didn't send […]
My awful substitute teaching experience.
i've subbed about 20 times. i'm very professional, respectful, and do what's right. i'm pasting a complaint that i filed with a school principal. obviously, i'm censoring for anonymity. the school where i taught was all-special ed. the area counties sent students to this school. prior to this experience, i'd subbed there six times...more than […]
