Thanks
lol....i love the elementary kids, but since my certification is 4-8, i could teach middle school if I so choose to. So this will be an experience for me. Who knows I might actually like it.
I spoke to the principal, and my mom (who's a teacher there) and the consensus is that I WON'T be teaching the ELAR class, but I'll be teaching math instead. The sub that is doing math can't handle it, so they'll give her the ELAR class, and since I'm better at math, i'll take over for her. It's supposedly a better job, for me, because the kids aren't as bad and the classes are smaller.
So i'll be teaching math (mostly remedial math) for 6, 7, and 8th graders. And some days i'll be 'team teaching' with other math teachers.
We'll see what happens, and how long I stay (right now its only til like next friday, but if the teacher stays in the hospital, it'll be for longer).
