Teaching is a fun profession because you go to training where they instruct you in how to painstakingly plan your activities to incorporate as much cognitive development as possible, meet language goals, engage kids, and hit 7 different standards of social emotional learning all while complying with accommodations. And you stress yourself out doing all of these things to be a good teacher. Then you ask kids what they're doing in other classes and they tell you their history coach just puts the worksheets on canvas and sits at his desk. He actually gets paid more than you. 🙃

Working in education is just paying a ton of money to get your degrees and then continuing to pay to be a part of professional organizations forever and ever until you die because you can't afford to retire because you chose to work in education

Grateful for:

- subpoena being continued (I’m a witness and just not looking forward to talking about the event with tons of people).

- getting a referral for a civil attorney to get representation against our attacker.

- teaching goals are finally finally clear

- I don’t feel like I’m going to hurl myself into a trench and hope for death

How to loop over grouped Pandas dataframe?

DataFrame:

c_os_family_ss c_os_major_is l_customer_id_i0 Windows 7 904181 Windows 7 904182 Windows 7 90418

Code:

print dffor name, group in df.groupby('l_customer_id_i').agg(lambda x: ','.join(x)): print name print group

I'm trying to just loop over the aggregated data, but I get the error:

ValueError: too many values to unpack

@EdChum, here's the expected output:

c_os_family_ss \l_customer_id_i131572 Windows 7,Windows 7,Windows 7,Windows 7,Window...135467 Windows 7,Windows 7,Windows 7,Windows 7,Window... c_os_major_isl_customer_id_i131572 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,...135467 ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,...

The output is not the problem, I wish to loop over every group.

My entire school system just shut down because of an outbreak so big that it took out over half the school system on quarantine. There are more student cases after just two weeks back at school than there was even at the biggest peak of last year. The delta variant is no joke and many people around here are finally starting to realize that.

As a teacher, it is physically causing me pain to watch and listen to this debate. My 10-11 year old students have better manners and respect for their peers than what I am seeing. We get into “debates” in class and they all know to let the speaker finish their thought before I call on the next person to respond. The moderator is awful and needs to get this under control. This is embarrassing.

Dear educhums

This didn't work too well last time, but hey, gotta try again

I'm thinking of getting an MTeach in Australia to become a secondary school teacher. My problem is, the scholarship I've been counting on has been cancelled, and I barely have any funds to spare. I am also a foreigner, which means very little other scholarships and/or loans are available to me. All of that means that I'm very limited in university choice.

Question: does it matter what university I get my degree from? (as long as that degree is accredited with the local teacher accrediting organisation)

This is what today's remote teaching set up looked like.

That's Gary, our class emotional support sloth. We were allowed one trip into our school, so when I went in to grab binders and books and files, I also grabbed Gary.

I forking miss my classroom and my students and my routine.

Recording a teacher teach is a nightmare.

You know those dreams where you're naked, on your way to work, or going out in public? Videotaping a lesson is the teacher equivalent of the naked dream, except you don't get to wake up.

Staff Pick: Poison in the Colony

Elisa Carbone’s BLOOD ON THE RIVER: JAMES TOWN 1607 is a staple in classrooms around the country. After 12 years, POISON IN THE COLONY is the new companion to BLOOD ON THE RIVER and it picks up right where the last one left off. Virginia Laydon, an infant at the end of BLOOD ON THE RIVER, has now grown up in a colony that is teetering dangerously on the precipice of conflict with the native Algonquins. Virginia has the gift, or the curse, of the knowing—an ability that could help save the colony, and is equally likely to land her at the burning stake as an accused witch. When accusations and danger threaten, Virginia flees on her own, resulting in a journey of survival and self-realization. As with BLOOD ON THE RIVER, Carbone has a great sense of place and it feels like you’re in James Town as you’re flipping through this page-turning story. Virginia is a fascinating character as she has seen the colony of James Town grow over the years and it’s a fascinating perspective from that of Samuel in the first book. If you have BLOOD ON THE RIVER in your class or library, you’ll want this companion!

I think it is a problem that most people who are giving professional development/training to teachers are former teachers. Even if they left just in order to give these trainings professionally, they're still the people who wanted OUT. It might have been because of the pay, inflexible hours, admin, whatever, but we're not pulling from people who wanted to spend their life in the classroom.

Took a mental health day last week because I’ve barely used any of my days this year- mostly because my class is a hot mess and I don’t feel comfortable leaving them alone with a sub. Any type of behavior you can imagine is in my room this year. Dramatic queen bee girls? Check. Boys who want to play fight club everyday at recess? Check. Goof-offs who disrupt everyone in the room with their antics? Check. Disrespect/defiance? Check. SpEd severely below students? Behavioral day treatment? Absolute zone-out space cadets? Check check check. Come to room 13 for all your behavioral needs!!

After feeling a lot of burnout I took a day. Came back today to long notes from multiple different teachers complaining about behavior. Apparent the principal, AP, and guidance counselor were sent to my room throughout the day to deal with issues. I had to hear all morning from TAs and resource teachers and office staff how terrible my kids did. And truly they’re not bad kids, I like them all, but it’s a horrible combination of very strong personalities as well as a lot of attitude and high needs kids. I don’t mind one or even two of those things, but all 3 (especially on top of everything else going on this year) is too much. I don’t know how I’m going to make it to early June like this.

I was about to lose it when the nominations for teacher of the year award came out for voting on. Somebody nominated me. In their nomination they wrote about what an extra-challenging group I have in every way possible, but how I do everything I can to provide resources and opportunities for all while keeping a bubbly attitude and building relationships. I won’t win- I’ve only be there 4 years and the other 4 people nominated do a lot more for the school than I do- but it was really cool that someone sees what I’m doing and nominated me.

So the first week of school has come and gone and I couldn’t be happier!!

This year I’m lucky to teach my favorite grades: 4th, 5th and 6th grades and I’m even luckier because all of the kids have already been my students so we know each other and I know how to work with them.

Some of them are my students for the third year in a row and I feel so glad and grateful for having the privilege to see them grow up and mature.

I really missed my kids and I’m so happy to see them again (and they were happy to see me too heh), they have grown up so much during the summer that some of the sixth graders are almost as tall as me! (165 cm).

I also got to say hello and chat a little with my now-7th-graders (they say they hate middle school and miss the little pleasures of elementary school like having fewer classes and a teacher who gives them chocolate) but I’m sure they’ll get used to it really soon. I’m very glad to see they are doing good and I hope they keep enjoying their Italian classes.

This was such a beautiful and fun week, I hope the rest of the year is like this too.
