This just made my day!!! Thanks for sharing😄

I once made a post like this on Facebook, joking about how my kindergarteners were so shocked that I used the word "heck" when sometimes I wanted to say something much worse... it was a private post that only friends could see, but this other teacher who had friended me went behind my back and reported it to the principal, presumably trying to get me fired.
I certainly learned my lesson that time--I have never friended any co-workers since. That was before I found out about Fishbowl!

Eh... freedom of speech only extends so far. If it was something legitimately worrisome, like violent or racist, I could see someone doing that; but it was literally just a joke about something I'd never do, which is curse in front of my students

And depending on the kid that gives me trouble I have other words to go with it in my head that I want to say as well 😁😁

Two years ago this actually happened in front of my class of sophomores. I was terrified that I would lose my job but I think they took pity on me because my husband was going through chemo/I thankfully knew them well and had built some trust. However, a few did bring it up on my course evals under “what you could improve on is not swearing at your students.”

How can you make children’s natural impulse for verbal communication work for you?

I do as much verbal interaction as possible. I teach math, and unless they’re doing the warm up, taking (rare) notes, or taking a quiz/test, they’re in groups. 😁

Me and another teacher had a meeting with a parent and student. After the meeting, the admin asked us both to stay. He shut the door and yelled at me for not apologizing to the student (the other teacher did before the meeting and I 100% wanted to, but I felt like the opportunity wasn't there - and yes, I know I should have). Tomorrow I plan on apologizing to the student. But do I say something to the admin for yelling at me in front of a coworker? Or let it go.
