Last night’s youth group was… interesting, to say the least. It was the last session before a 2-week holiday break, and the kids were as hyper as they could be! We had decided to throw the kids in my husband’s group and my group a pizza party, but last week, my husband had another teacher’s

I guess it’s time to return to the topic of kids- subbing and at church. The past week I was back to two days of subbing after my big half-day Thanksgiving week. I was lucky to get even that as only one district I am signed up with had classes at all that week, and

(Big Nate ©Lincoln Peirce) This past week I could be found in a middle school every day. In fact, I was in one school for three days for two teachers. I started the week in near-city district at the school that was closed for a few days a couple of weeks ago due to swine

What does he do with the rest of the day? In hometown district all three middle-school grades take this class. The other
Back to the school entries- it’s been too long. Before I continue though, one of my friends mentioned that I have been too general with my district descriptions, that she is always wondering which district I’m talking about. I have been thinking about how to refer to these districts because I want to play it

I bookended my three days in elementary (Tuesday was in a mentally impaired classroom) with middle-school jobs at the same school. Monday I subbed for a specialty teacher who teaches a course about cultures. I am not sure what it entails, but is a separate course from the normal history/social studies courses. Being a specialty
In a tale of adventure about an archaeologist a substitute teacher from Indiana Illinois (yes I know he was named for a dog, not a state 8) ) a secret organization steals the famous Rosetta Stone and holds it hostage until a billion dollar ransom is paid… Okay, not really. In fact this post really

While we’re on the military theme (see last post), I should mention yesterday. I subbed at the school with the ELL troubles, right next door to that very room. That was enough to turn a bad day into a much better one, in other words- no problems. It was all eighth grade this time, and
