Just spent almost 2 hrs grading and sending emails. WTF. These children need to do their work. Seriously. Currently out of NINTY students there are a total of 255 missing assignments. The students have been given THIRTEEN assignments since mid October. They have at minimum an hour in class, and copious amounts of time outside of class (not even talking about "homework") to complete these assignments. GAAAAAHHHHHHH
I feel for you @cosystitches
I'd Love❤ to have you as a teacher for my kids!!
Our teacher " Switched to remote" which means the 10 y/olds are required to be in the classroom while he " teaches" From home.
This means: he connects himself on audio only for 5 minutes. Gives them a boatload of work, reconnects 5 minutes before end, declines to answer questions and gives them homework.
I've seen the headmaster about this immediately. He's not OK, can't do anything but has at least sent one staff member (not teacher) to avoid the 29 10y/o to be alone in a classroom for 50 mins.
I get that some teachers switch to remote and in France employees are very well protected. The teacher is over 50 and that's enough for him to be switched. But staying connected and answering questions isn't asked too much imho.
On a different note: in the midst of losing a close and dear friend.
She's a genuinely good person, but blind when it comes to her kids.
Her girl's getting very nasty and she denying facts. Now she's started lashing out at my girl.
I'm always trying to see both sides, but she flat out refuses to.
We have agreed upon "no interference".
But she clearly told her girl what to do and how to " Punish " non compliant friends: silent treatment, ridicule, she rehearsed some comebacks with her. So now a silly correction at the pony Club will cost us our friendship.
I have to show my daughter I have her back 100% .
Sad but true.. Parenting is hard.
