School starts next week for the students. Already! And even though I've spent the past week setting up my classroom and attending meetings, I don't feel ready yet. I'm thankful it's the weekend... But where did the summer go? 🤯

Summer always goes by insanely fast, it's crazy to think how close we are to meeting our students and getting ready to start the whole year over again. Personally I'm at the point in the summer where I'm ready to get going again so I'm excited to get back to work!

This is my 10th year and I have never felt less prepared for the new year than I do right now.

Many teachers I have talked to, seen to be in the same boat. One teacher I know actually had surgery last week, and she is fretting that she isn't going to be with her students to start the year off. She is always prepared, but I can not imagine the frustration she is going through.

I am not ready! I got new Financial Literacy workbooks Thursday, but no teacher's guide. I guess I won't be using them!

Yep, those babies went on the bookshelf. I am going to use Junior Achievement, but I will also check out the Khan Academy

Hello,
I teach 4th grade at a Christian school. I have been teaching for over 30 years but I have been at this school for 2 years. Since I have been working at this school it seems like everything I do in my classroom it's something wrong with it according to my supervisor. Recently, I was told that I am not getting a new contract for the new school year. I have to find a new school. I was told that I am not a good fit for the school.

Anyone have advice for talking to teachers in your school that are upset with you?
My 4th grade class didn’t show up today because the teachers are upset that student behaviors that are an issue in music are carrying over to their classroom. I understand their frustration, but nothing was communicated with me. I even thought things were going better this week.

Welcome to our pre-k inclusive classroom. Even with 8 students, and only face to face for 4 hours, we struggle. We struggle being heard through our masks. We struggle with social distancing. We struggle as we find ourselves constantly reminding students to keep their masks on. We struggle to keep them engaged and to teach. One thing we do not struggle with- building connections and showing out love for each child.

Split classes take away joy! We have 6-7 classes at each grade level and they split 1-2 into the remaining 5 so we can have a 5 day schedule. Big classes plus the classroom culture homeroom teachers work so hard to achieve are ruined. Advice? (Plus we are told to "not be negative" by admin.)
