Talking about the pros/cons of attendance questions over on my blog today. Is this something you use in your classroom? How else do you build positive culture in your own classroom?
I used attendance questions last year and it really helped me to build positive relationships with my students, help us get to know each other, and it also helped me learn their names faster!
Tumbler Teacherās Amazon Classroom Wish Lists 2018-2019
Hello Wonderful Tumblrites,
Every year, teachers spend on average $500 on their classroom of their own money.Ā Ā I know many teachers who spend considerably more.Ā Ā Each year, I request links to wish lists from the teachers on Tumblr to share; we call it Teachmas.Ā It is wonderful to have support from all over as we prepare for the new school year.Ā Please consider purchasing an item, if money is tight, reblogs also help!Ā Ā Thank you so much!

So I did a thing this year. Only teacher at my school. š
BUT I WAS ABSENT
Did i miss anything
Why am I failing?Ā
but it wasnāt me!
What are we doing?
They did it, too!
Can we play fortnite?
Are we working today?
Itās not an A?
When is it due?
Is there extra credit?
April teacher tired
Iām so tired. Nothing is emotionally wrong, just dvoid of energy, and I feel like I should cry to likeā¦ Release something but the tears wonāt come? Like Iām really that dehydrated because all I drink is 12 oz of coffee everyday?
And the kids. I donāt fucking care if youāre āalmost done with the thing (we did two weeks ago) and almost ready to turn it in just gotta do your responsibility essayā
Look. Iām glad you wanna turn it in but itās April and I absolutely do not care. Either turn it in or donāt. I already graded it when it was DUE, and yours wasnāt there, so. If itās not done I donāt care about it. Iām not gonna chase you down for shit in April. Iām sick of caring more than you.
āOh haha yeah I failed that exam because I guessed on like the last 5.ā
*October me* nice lecture of empowerment how theyāre worth more and capable of more how itās disrespectful to me because I bust my ass designing and assessing these lessons how I know they can do better and bad grades will cause them to be in lower classes next year where theyāll be even more bored and hate everybody
*April me* ..ok.
Okay.
Sure you can come do work later. Sure you can turn it in late. Sure you can do test corrections. Sure you can finish it for homework. Sure you can go turn that in to another teacher.
Yes I already graded that, yes its late, and lastlyā¦ I just donāt care why you got kicked out of class and are in my room for the third time today. I donāt care about your slick comments trying to make people laugh. I donāt think itās funny, I donāt have time for it, I just. Donāt. Care.
Either do your shit, or donāt. Itās fucking April, Iāve done my job already.
āAre we gonna have a 20 page review packet for the final like we do for civics?ā
LOL no. Itās fucking language arts. What do you think weāve been doing all year. Thereās nothing I can cram in two weeks if you donāt already know it. So weāre gonna chill after the state test, read our book, and if you decide to turn work in, cool. If not, Iām not gonna cry about it. Itās April.
it breaks my heart that this is what our students are thinking.
This episode of ER where they find 22 kids abandoned in an apartment.
The little girl who doesn't talk just asked one of the doctors if she'd be her mommy. I'm dying. š
The high was 61 today
It's been seven days since it snowed.
But we still don't have school tomorrow. Officially had a three week break.
finally starting brooklyn nine-nine
while i love my now three week break, it is rough being stuck inside. iāve run out of things to watch.
Iāve been feeling some type of way about only getting a week for winter break (@halfstable and @elviajedelaesperanza get two), but then all of this snow happened and now Iām off today and tomorrow.
SCORE ONE FOR SHEILS, ZERO FOR CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT
I want that too on top of my 12 days off
^^^ yes. Extra break PLUS snow days pls
we ended up with an almost three week break because of our snow days. šš¼
Trivia HQ
Even though the first question didn't show up for me tonight so I was automatically out and I'm currently mad at the game, do any of you play Trivia HQ?
Twice daily trivia show where you can win actual money by answering twelve questions correctly.
If you don't play yet, download and sign up with my referral code! meluhknee
two truths

i keep not grading
me too!!!
Adam is OG!!!! @mommyneedsacoffee
I started singing the song. and realized that line ends with "that's how ruff Ryder's roll". because it really is stop drop and roll. but thats how THEY roll.
Pencil Game Question
@pablophonic @elviajedelaesperanza and anyone else who plays the pencil game, I have a few questions.
How many questions do you typically give the students to complete?
What size groups do you use?
I'm trying to do as many variations to worksheets as I can this year and this seems like a good one to try.
EDD: What do you do to stay active and healthy during the school year?
I tried to run 4 miles today but my exhaustion and heat of the hotel gym got to me. (I got 2.79 in) Last year I started running and meal prepping. What do you all do (physically, mentally whatever) to stay active and healthy?
Itās so hard, because I come home and I want to do nothing. I have taken up running, though, and did a 10 miler with some coworkers 2 weeks ago. (I about died but I did it). Iām trying to run at least 3 days a week, even if itās just 2 miles a day just to do it. Meal prepping helps with staying healthy foodwise, but sometimes I canāt even get up the mental energy to do that on the weekends.
My roommate(who's also a teacher at my school) and I started a program at a gym that forces us to go three times a week for 16 weeks. We always try to go right after school so we don't lose the motivation by going home. We've enjoyed it so much we plan on continuing after the 16 weeks are over.
EDD: What are you reading right now?
Iām reading Dress Codes for Small Towns by Courtney Stevens (YA) and In the Footsteps of Crazy Horse by Joseph Marshal III (juv fic).
The Heroes of Olympus series. So good!
Forged by Fire - since Iļø am teaching it starting on Monday
Miss Peregrineās Home for Pecuilar Children - have been reading it on and off for about six months
House of the Scorpion and Lord of Opium - starting to reread these books - love them
Turtles all the way down- Iām a John Green fan
What Unites Us by Dan Rather
Pretties by Scott Westerfield
