6 months and accomplished being a Good Teacher Mar 5, 2024
https://i.imgur.com/K5s252A.gif

I know there are more negative experiences for subs. I had to move far from the school I am a long-term sub for. While I packed my last box, I got this email from a student and made me cry how much impact I had on you kids for the past 6 months. This is why most of us teach and come to the classroom everyday. I feel like Mr. Feeny from Boy Meet World when he says “I love you all. Class Dismissed”.

Some context, a student was going through a hard time and talked to her counselor to get her mom to consent to therapy since she was comfortable being open about being stressed and wanting someone to talk to. My first-year teaching and I am already a great educator 🥺.

I been MIA because I was a long term sub for Spanish for 3 weeks, 8th grade History/Science for 1 month, and a Biology/Environmental Science for 3 months. I might play a casting soon who knows haha. What have I missed?

Finally have some time to work on Nov 20, 2023
My hunger game project. Just curious whether I should have it where if you die you must start  the entire game over or from a certain point before being killed in a battle? What are your thoughts?

I’m officially 26 Nov 12, 2023
Some updates:
I’m still subbing middle and high school. Got offered a long-term opportunity. I’m officially starting my 6th degree to teach Earth Science in high school (masters of arts in teaching). I got a new boyfriend (he literally flew from Maryland to California to spend Halloween weekend with me). Life has been great lately!

So my family and I got Covid Sep 18, 2023
When I tested positive, my step mom was making a joke how my  vaccination didn’t do shit. Like my step sister and myself are the only ones vaccinated. She is feeling it a lot worse and I’m doing fine like I have a semi bad flu. I had Covid before and been vaccinated 3 times.

Who the fuck educates people about false facts about vaccines? VACCINES NEVER BEEN ADVERTISED TO PREVENT ILLNESS. They inject a weakened virus to teach your immune system how to destroy the virus when you do become infected so you do not need to be hospitalized.

It’s 2023… still negative stigma 🤷‍♂️

I subbed for sped students today Aug 25, 2023
It's kind of sus that special education students behaved better than regular students at the high school I worked at. I scored $200 today (an extra $11 for being in the sped department).

It's really sad that the sped teacher is unable to teach at all due to being the only teacher at the school writing IEPs, having meetings all day, and being an aide because there are only 3 aides to help with 7th - 12th graders with needs. There needs to be a easier pathway for those who want to teach, but the exams and cost make it impossible...
