Does anyone have experience working for Connections Academy or another virtual academy? I am very interested in teaching from home, but most virtual jobs I have reviewed still require you to come to an office/ school building. I want to know what it is like, specifically the work load. Would you say more or less than public? How does classroom management, amount of grading, and freedom of curriculum differ?

Does anybody incorporate SAT/ACT vocabulary and question stems in their classes? How does SAT prep look like in your classroom?

I’m thinking about moving up to a high school English position from 8th grade English. Mainly I’m looking for a change. Any thoughts on the differences I’d be facing?

I have high school children of my own, but disciplining high schoolers has always intimidated me for some reason. I have excellent classroom management, but I feel like high schoolers are a little smarter ab getting around rules and less worried about consequences.

I’m told by an hs tchr that the grading load is ab the same.

I’m using Padlet for students to post artwork. They type in a reflection of the process & post. It’s created a sense of classroom community seeing everyone’s artwork, can comment & like. First 3 Free!

I can manage my classroom better if I don’t respond to emails outside of office hours. This gives my mind a break and by consequence refreshes me for the next day. It also sets a boundary.

What kind of behavior systems do you use in your classroom? I teach 1st grade. I’m tired of using the folder/calendar system with 🙂/🙁 and a prize box. Any ideas?

I was gifted with 4 new desktop computers for my classroom! I teach 3rd and 4th grade learning support! Any suggestions for free and/or inexpensive academic websites?

Has anyone used wordcraft in their classroom?

We can’t have classroom management without taking care of ourselves first. Rest. Even if it’s for 2 minutes. We close our eyes and reset.

Is anyone else returning to fully in person learning? We have been hybrid/synchronous since September, which has been very hard and not very effective. They want us to have all Kindergarten students come back in March. I want to stop live teaching over google meet all day while also teaching my students in person at the same time, but there is not enough space in my classroom for safe distancing, not enough space for movement, and sitting at a desk all day is not appropriate for K kids!

What is your best classroom management trick?

What does effective classroom management look like to you?

Has anyone tried using a QR code for classroom sign out? Has it worked for you or just become a pain?

I've got some friends who work remote jobs, and every day I grow more jealous of them during my one-hour commute.

How acceptable is it to customize role title on resume? As in, if its okay to say “Product Manager and Consultant” / “Product Management Consultant” vs official tittle of just Consultant? Consultant alone doesn’t say much and I’ve been designing web/mobile apps for a few years so the customization is apt, not BS.

Why do people who left consulting never come back?

Are most of you expected to go back into the office now? How many days do you need to be in the office per week? And which sector do you work in?

Would love a thread of different districts that offer a virtual academy. I’m looking for a change, preferably outside California. My district currently offers a virtual academy where your pay is on the same scale as in person teachers. So I’m not looking for companies that offer a virtual education, where they pay you minimum wage. Thank you!

Any teachers who work at a full time virtual school? Would like to see more posts for this environment with tips, suggestions, resources, etc.

Who is still virtual starting in January? Anyone given dates in your states as to when you will return to your buildings? Curious 😊

I am trying to build a virtual/online marketplace similar to TPT but focus on 100 percent profit for teacher sellers.

Can we share salaries, type of school, and state? I make 54,000 in California for a charter school - which may be the bare minimum they is allowed in the state.

Are there any virtual teaching positions in Michigan that pay into the MI retirement system (ORS) for educators? I have 4.5 years until I can retire and due to my health may not be able to be in person. All of the jobs I have seen only offer 401Ks. Thanks for your help.

I have heard only the negatives about distance learning. Am I the only one that thinks there are positives? I know it’s a change but I have noticed that some of my students are benefiting in some ways.

Is anyone else completely annoyed how parents are pulling kids away during class to do chores or to help with siblings??
