    I literally pushed the elf off the cabinet he had been sharing with a bear puppet. Letting the elf dangle down the side holding on by just his foot because I had forgot to move him and students were outside the door. When asked why he was hanging like that I legit blamed the bear and turned it into a lesson on being kind to others.

      We ran out of ideas so I shoved some candy in my mouth (can't have a lot of sugar) and left the wrappers all around and pretended it got into our prize box. 😂🤦‍♀️ Worth the stomachache when my third graders were absolutely mystified by the elf hanging on the box with candy wrappers.

      "But Ms. Teacher, why didn't the elf move?" [Panicking inside] "Oh gosh she didn't?? You know when she moves she's going back to the north pole to tell Santa how you guys were. Maybe she didn't want to tell him how noisy you were yesterday, huh?" 🤯🙃

    The week before Winter Break is the longest week ever and kids completely loose their minds. Although you're supposed to keep teaching and admin decides to do an evaluation in Seventh period! So many kids don't come that last day, but all the ones you would love to stay home, every single one of them shows up!

    One of my students gave me a Christmas gift of a bottle of cologne and some handkerchiefs. He said his mom told him to give them to me if I would change his grade to passing. I told him I could not do that. He took the gift back.

    • @m_n_a_b
      @m_n_a_b Рік тому +12

      Why do parents think they can bribe their child's teacher to give them passing grades? If you care so much about your child passing... do your job as a parent and make sure your child does the work and studies. If your child is still failing, do your job as a parent and find tutoring services. Your child's education is important.

      I remember a student of mine gave me a gift at Christmas one year, and then when I didn't pass him he didn't give me a gift at the end of the year on the last day of school.

    All this, plus at a Catholic school we throw in DAILY school assemblies for advent prayers (it takes 3 minutes for the prayer and song then 10 minutes to get the whole school backto class). Lights and trees must go up! Art/writing presents must go home to parents! Honestly, I love it. I always plan everything academic to end well before we get there and just do fun stuff from the start December.

    Soooo accurate! We also had the Winter Program where every grade performed and the parents wouldn’t get out of the way to let the kids get on and off the stage area because they were taking pictures. Then had attitude with us because we asked them to get out of the student seats.

    Yesterday, our elf brought the students all the ingredients to make homemade cookies. What in the heck was that elf thinking?????? 😂Soooooooo Friday afternoon (literally ALL afternoon!) my students made cookies! I queued up a “holiday baking video” (a nice loooooong one) and told them they had to “watch quietly while each batch of cookies baked and then cooled!!!! 😂 Every once in a while, I looked up and commented “oooooohhhh! That’s so cute/looks yummy! Pay attention so that “maybe” we can make that next week!” (never gonna happen!!) 😂😂

    Let's go to the assembly...and not do work, I felt that. There is never enough time in the classroom, and I joke with my students about wanting 3hrs a day for English which horrifies them but would be just enough time a day to cover everything we need to cover.
    Also, love you added homemade cookies! During the last day of my clinical, a student brought me some she made herself with a bow and card, the works. I couldn't NOT try them she was too excited, luckily, they were awesome---perfect balance of sugar and salt.

    High school math teacher. Grades due tomorrow at 8 am, but kids are still in class tomorrow. So I threw away yesterday's lesson on fractions (doubling and half-ing recipes) into the trash, had the kids bring in those recipes today, and most kids watched "The Story of One" documentary while I desperately tried to save the grades and hopes of the failing students. Now, I still have grading to finish, but my struggling students felt seen and heard. The struggle is real....

  • @christmashereandnow

    It's been a minute, but, hmm...I recall mostly, "Okay, let's just have center time!" And passing out holiday-themed coloring pages. That may or may not have had math problems to solve on them, lol. And let's not forget party day, which I always wished we could JUST. SKIP.

    I teach at a Title 1 school. We work so hard. None of us got even a thank you card! Ungrateful parents and horrendously behaved students. Not one parent even said Merry Xmas or Happy Vacation, etc. They treat us so badly. So to all you parents out there, please send a thank you email or card! They certainly send endless complaining emails so we know you've got email. I got a blaster that said, "Why does school close for 2 weeks? Can't I just send my kid to school?" 😖

      In the mid 2000's our daughter attended our neighborhood school, a Title I school, for K - 2. The classes were small, around 20 per teacher with an aide. The staff was amazing. The small PTO worked hard so no child was left out. Not perfect, but 4 kids from her K class were in her 5th/6th grade high ability class. We are a college educated household. The other families weren't, but I could tell that the parents were doing their best for their kids. Enjoy your break. I hope your school year gets better.

Hope CPS got an ear full of you trying to explain why you sent your kid to school when the calendar is on the internet saying, "No school". Plus, when you drove up to drop him/her off, I know you saw the marquis outside saying, "No school."
