Trying to log 3rd graders into google classroom and the first thing that pops up is “use ai” WHAT ARE WE DOING? 😠

Happy day! Thank you Great Minds Came just in time for me to put the whiteboards in after the 1st UFLI lesson. Got to find time to put together the clipboard rack tomorrow. I am so excited! And the white boards will fit in the tote that currently holds the clip boards. 🎉😆

Stop asking teachers and school staff to do things that are not their jobs. If a parent calls the school and asks for a babysitter, admin should NOT even ask the teacher, it should just be a no. Making a teacher or staff feel obligated to do something is not be doing is not ok.

Hot water in the classroom didn’t work. Cloud in a cup experiment had to be altered on the fly. cups are on a windowsill and will observe next week. I took out some weather fact books I’ve never used and let kids find the coolest fact about weather to share. Success!

First full week of school ended with two resignations and the possibility of not having prep periods 2 days a week 😫

Just got a text that there is no power in my classroom. Happy Monday, wish me luck!

The town selectmen want to close our school, I’m stressed about whether they can do that mid year. They only care about the money the school costs not the value it provides. Ugh.

Hahahahaha 😂😆😜 got my id badge today. Photographer let me do a pearl clutch. Made my day! Hahahaha. Can’t wait till a student notices hahahaha

This is why I don’t think online testing data is valid. This was a 39 question reading test. The student spent less than 23 seconds on each question. The test did not flag the student as rapid guessing, and labeled the student as highly engaged for taking a typical amount of time

Reason #39574 I love teaching 3rd grade: 8yo: “I noticed something, when I’m confused about something and I pay attention, I understand it better.”

Teacher gripe of the day: We have a staff bathroom smaller than a closet, this week someone brought in apple cinnamon spray. Apple cinnamon sh*t is not a fall scent that I’m enjoying, not at all.

Taught a class full of 3rd graders all day without my voice. They did very well, followed written direction, luckily today was a review day

Since when did medicine start being done off vibes? Went in with chest pain, numbness in arm, pressure behind my eyes and high blood pressure (after taking my regular meds). Waited hours for the doctor to tell me that he sees people with much higher blood pressure so it’s nothing
