Education Buzzwords That Drive Teachers Crazy
Вставка

- You are in for a treat as we're joined by special guest, Ms. M of @ms.m_closet, to tackle the world of buzzwords for teachers. From the latest teaching acronyms like STEM, PBIS, and RTI to the special terms that only teachers understand, like "differentiation" and "formative assessment", we're diving into the lingo that can make teaching feel like learning a new language. We also have some fun sharing our own hilarious experiences with buzzwords and ways we've tried to incorporate or exile them in our classrooms.
To close out the show, we play a quick game of "Name the Acronym!" that will have you rolling with laughter!

I love that you guys included a special education teacher for this video. No one talks about all the paperwork, meetings, and stress of being a caseload manager
Amen! Speech-Language Pathologist here!
Oh my lord I hear about it from my case managers of the years and dear God they have to write at least like 14-20 IEPs pet year that are all 20-30 pages long and by a certain deadline
This! Made me so happy to see my job represented!
We used to play buzz word bingo during PD. We secretly pass out bingo cards before the meeting. When someone got bingo we’d awkwardly stand up and stretch. Admin at the time never caught on.
At my school, we called it bull s**t bingo. We actually wanted to get up when we got “BlNGO” and shout “Bulls**t!”. I think your idea is better. I’ll pass along your idea to my friends that are still working. I’ve been retired since June of 2017….
LOVE THIS!
My face was hurting after filming this from laughing so much 😂
someone pin this comment.
I did my clinicals at Moorhead. Small world!
So crazy you’re from South Dakota!! 😊❤️
Lol you laughing is so btypical
Would love to hear the difference between public and private school teachers
That would be cool.
and charter schools!
Yeah. It could be a panel. 2 expensive private school teachers, 2 lower cost private schools, 2 magnet school teachers with mixed income students. 2 with wealthier ones. 2 public school teachers from upper middle class schools, and 2 from poor schools.
I volunteer to be a private school teacher on a panel. 19 years at private institutions: all-girls for 9, Christian for 1, and co-ed for 9.
Explicitly 🤦♀️ if I teach it, I’m teaching it explicitly.
This had me laughing hysterically! I love the term “b-typical” 😆
It really needs to catch on. Should we do t-shirts?! 🤣
@@TeachersOffDutyPodcast yes absolutely!!
This is a good insight into how our students have misunderstandings because we don't spend much time defining words well or learning how conjugation works in our first language. Students often don't get enough information to truly understand.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I had a teacher who would discourage us from eating breakfast or the good juice. She said she was giving it to underprivileged children, but I think she was just taking it home to drink and eat herself.
Faculty meeting bingo!
Put all the buzz words on a bingo sheet. You know you are in the right school if your principal laughs when someone yells “bingo!”.
Years ago there was a teacher who was in room 504, so a lot of her students marked the 504 box on a state test. She had to erase all of them.
I teach high school math. When I'm observed and going over a problem, I say "Now use your TECHNOLOGY to get the answer." Meaning their calculator, which often isn't correctly recognized as tech use for the check boxes.
A typical and b typical had me rolling 🤣
I am 504 I know your secrets 🤣🤣🤣
The adhd/balance beam hit home with me. I was diagnosed with adhd in the 2nd grade (I'm 31 now) and I became a level 10 gymnast. Thank yall for this!!
I love that you included a special education teacher!! I’ve taught resource for so many years and the amount of paperwork is unreal. I love the idea of separating teacher and caseworkers. I can plan or do paperwork but never have time within contract to do both. Plus, I NEVER pull my teachers from their prep- I know how valuable it is. Thanks for all your effort and time to bring attention to the unique world that is ours!
Thank YOU for what you do everyday!!
Rigor, differentiate, growth mindset, the child as the customer and education is the product, student centered, CHAMPS, MAC, decompose, exit ticket, exploration learning, synthesize, collaborative learning, ARDed, RTI'd. 'Child study' morphed into another term. It goes on
I like this new group. This has been the best episode of this season since the change of cast.
Thanks for the love!
I agree. love ms m
I am not even a teacher, but I really enjoy listening to your podcast!
I am a substitute para and I love listening to all these
🥰🥰🥰🥰 Thank you!!
I'm dying!!🤣atypical and btypical....We all have those words/phrases that we've been saying wrong our whole lives.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
26:32 the stairs thing for Tell makes sense, because he was / is ADHD and climbing stairs feeds into the tactile and kenisthetic physical stimulation, it satisfies the sensory input that hyper active people often need, plus the need to explore which satisfies the curiosity and that part of the brain that craves the need to ''figure things out'', see whats up there, whats on the other side'' .
you guys need to do a few podcasts featuring and focusing on the special ed teachers , the crazy stories, the good stories, the frustrations of doing special ed. and so on.
You guys keep bringing great young teachers and you don't miss, but I would love to see the contrast of an episode with all you social media savvy teachers, who have been teaching for less than 10 years, with a teacher who has been teaching longer than 10 years, doesn't post on social media, maybe had a different career prior to teaching, and brings and old school vibe to the show. I volunteer as tribute! 😜
I want my school to bring puppies 😂😂😂i also can’t stop laughing at these buzzwords 😂😂
We all need puppies all the time! 😂
California here. I’m a case manager and classroom teacher. I remember when they said “congratulations you are now a case manager….no raise, just more responsibility”
I love listening to your podcast. There was just an adventure that started with “do you like getting high but here breathing in the smoke….”. I’m LMAO!!!
Rigorous is totally my teacher buzzword I hate
As someone who had ADHD, and had restless legs, I wish I had these people as teachers growing up
🥰🥰🥰🥰
I had an AP that was obsessed with Kagan and wouldn't let me teach with any of the other strategies that I prefer. Drove me absolutely crazy.
I was literally laughing the WHOLE time. I can’t wait for for y’all to see all the other episodes!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
❤❤❤ SO HAPPY we got to record with you!!
Thank you for including a special education teacher!
We loved having Ms. M with us!
17:32 I had an IEP in school and I felt bad for the teacher but at the same it was kind funny when they come back to class ranting about the IEP like no one knows they talking about 😂
My school did away with the prize bins for rewards for PBIS. We’re doing Michael Linsin, but it’s still the same kids who are always getting in trouble.
It’s MS. M as this week’s guest for me 🥳🥰💁🏻♀️✨
I love her! Het tiktoks crack me up!
RIGHT!? Isn't she amazing!?
LMAO IMAGINE HAVING MEETINGS DURING THE DAY. I get to come to work early and stay extra late for IEP meetings...
You all have a nice vibe together! Love Ms. M
It's equity for me. When you're in an majority POC school of course they're going to see scientists, and academic figures who look like them. But to make education equitable for ALL students that's going to fall under legislation. I can't possibly teach a child chemistry who is reading on a 5th grade level and who did not understand basic algebraic concepts, but has been passed to the 11th grade... and now you have them i. chemistry. Equity will not exist in that instance
LOVE the new intro!
Yes, they spent some moolah!!
I am so sorry but I could not stop laughing at "ok, go pick up the floor." (23:57)
The cheer leader… “I’m a potato” lol
My highschool had flexible seating, they had a ton of chairs and foldable tables, and if you needed them you could set them up but if not you could sit wherever you wanted. I sat on the concrete floor for 3 years before they made me sit at an actual desk but it was the best.
for flexible seating (as an 8th grader): i like to be comfy for stuff like reading, being at a desk for note-taking, and I need to be slightly uncomfortable to do writing (sitting on the floor, on one of those really pointy school desk chairs but with my feet on the seat and my butt on the back, etc). I also really like sitting on top of desks, especially for watching videos and talking to teachers. ALSO (yes, there is more, because there's always more) my teachers are really good about giving stuff to kids who are being good. For example, one of them gives out candy to people who are behaving, and whenever I get them I hoard it in my pencil case for when I'm falling asleep in class :)
At my high school, we have PBIS as a slideshow every Monday in our "home advisory"(we do flex Tuesday-Friday). It's so dumb, because you KNOOWW it's only the underclassmen that these "Bathroom Expectations, Lunchroom Expectations" and more, are targetted at😭.
What a fun show.....I fully relate to some of these misused words
I would love to see yall talk about the differences in experience between traditional cert teachers and alt cert teachers. I'm an alt cert teacher myself but I did take some teaching courses in college while I was getting my English degree.
Im from Minnesota and when he said he used to work at a school in a Moorhead MN I was like THATS SO COOL! I've been there many times!
I cannot wait to drop A-B Typical out in the real word.
Yes!! Let's make it a movement!
So, when I hear buzzword I think of something that triggers you. None of the words that were mentioned really triggered me as a teacher, but PBIS does! In my district we were told no consequences at all for the first year of doing it, it’s failed big time. Love the guest wish you talked about her job!😅
i love Kagan! It makes teaching so much easier!
LOVE the intro! Yall are legit 🧡
Thank you so much!!
When I taught elementary Turkey Gravy day was the only day most adults would buy school lunch. Now they don’t even do that. Everything is or packaged and reheated.
Happy to see Ms M!
I love the new intro!!!!!! Very early 2000 nostalgic sitcoms
Yall are just a fun bunch😊
The moment you said “fidelity” I got pissed. I hear that a much in Special Education.
...sorry about that... 😬
Being a student at Moorhead high that’s a question I always get asked! “Is your mascot really a potato?” Also not a very good school to go to but being a theater kid helps
I was wondering why y’all didn’t introduce each other but I see y’all have a new video intro 🤣 sorry I listen to the podcast!
SWBAT is my buzzword 😂😂
These words are so accurate 🤣🤣🤣
I had an iep growing up and honestly I didn’t sit in on the meetings until 8th grade. They were honestly so boring. Just simple “he needs to work on organizing his work” or “he’s doing great in my class”. They never actually read the document and discussed the document
My high school mascot was a rock and I still think that's better than the spuds 😂
if your in Ontario Canada Minds in Motion is like DPA (Daily Physical Activity) Which is usually used to burn the students energy in the Classroom
Omg greasy cast this week . Learned a few new buzz words - lol . Love the new intro also . Ms.M is hilarious . I follow all of you . Keep it coming - we all need to laugh !❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ but keep it real !!!
Imagine being The Spuds in any academic competition 😂
OMG Tel😂
Your stairs fascination reminds me of an episode in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, when Midge is going on the road for comedy and finds herself in Florida. At some point during the hotel scene a lot of the female guests were using the large staircase to model their clothes why going down. Your fascination reminds me of Midge so desperately wanting to walk doing them with new clothes.
It has to do with reimbursement from the USDA for nutritious meals, they can only be reimbursed for complete meals/balanced snacks
Aww I love conscious discipline. But I understand what Tell means. Bc not everyone does it so once my Kids(older toddlers/preschool) leave they dont always get the options or follow throughs that I would do/give.
I teach online and I use asynchronous learning and synchronous learning daily lol.
I think this was my favorite podcast episode
I used to hate going to IEP meetings as a kid cause they were always before lunch and my case manager always had diarrhea of the month so they'd drag on forever
Omg I'm actually early, I love you guys so much ❤❤
What a wonderful podcast⭐⭐⭐
The new intro is amazing!!!
omg “intervention” and “data” and i use it daily but “critical thinking”
In my school iss was lrs (learning resource center). I was ALWAYS in LRS. Many many years later I ended up with our LRS teacher as my therapist😂😂😂
I would love for you to do a podcast with a fine arts teacher.
I volunteer as tribute. Not a big social media dude but 10 years in the industry and taught k-12
I love the new intro!
No walking up hill, just the 1.5 miles as the crow flies or closer to 3 miles as the sidewalks go. In the winter, summer, spring, and fall, didn't matter at all.
I had an IEP throughout my school years and sometimes when they did an IEP meeting on me it was just my mom and the special ed teacher until my senior year of high school and after that it was just me and the teacher talking instead of a full IEP meeting
I loved the new opening, cool.
we love a cinematic intro slay
Over the pandemic I was moved to a different school, and the one thing I very vividly remember were the tall THICC spiral stairs that I absolutley adored. You do not know how sad I was when my favorite vintage stone spiral staircase was replaced with a crappy metal one that had that had one of those little areas underneath it. To this day I hate my district for that reason, and they didn't even consider if we wanted to move schools. (To be reasonable my district is one of the best in the country but still like you get what I mean)
I teach in California, and they have not separated, case managers from special education, teachers in my district. I think it is a District High District thing, but the majority of them and I have taught in seven districts, and none of them have separated them.
"Effective Tier One Instruction"... DRINK!!
Where in California do they separate Case Manager from Sped Teacher!
I want to move there!
First of all I love Tell for repping us Pre-K teachers but can we please get a full explanation on conscious discipline cause I might have to implement that. I do pick my battles but Lord some days I just wanna open the door and tell em to go wonder the halls as long as you get away from me. 🤦🏾♀️🤣
I have panic disorder and when I feel one coming on(almost feels like a seizure coming) I go take a shower and smell my mouthwash lol so tell is right about distracting the senses, it's the only thing that helps me get to a point I can mentally calm down
I had no idea how many different acronyms/phrases the American education system has to the British system. Basically everything is called something different 😂
THE MASHED POTATOS TURKEY AND GRAVY !! IYKYK
I hope they consider ms. M as the fourth permanent member and other female in the podcast ❤ she is so funny and I love listening to her
I like the new intro a lot :)
Same
The high school i went to used kagan learning and it was huge fail in my opinion because only one or two kids did the work and the rest copied so only two in each group were actually learning.
Atypical BTypical 😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭🤣😭😭😭
"laser focus on standards". "Self care". "Dove-tailing". "Scaffolding". "Relationship-building". I could go on and on.
🙄🙄🙄🙄
Ms.M!!!!!❤❤❤
Someone in my science class called the teacher BY HIS FIRST NAME in front of the observation person. That kid got into a lot of trouble even though our teacher wouldn't have care.
Me watching this to study for my interview😂
I love the new intro❤❤
Cool intro👏🏻👏🏻👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks!
We did PBIS 20 years ago when I was in elementary school we had unnatural consequences too. Mainly the latter.
I love Mrs M
Love the new intro! Erikson's first name is Erik.
Differentiation gets on my nerves!!!
I feel like it's unrealistic.
