it's a vent, you dont have to read, i just need to get this off my chest

teacher: *telling a story* me, a neurodivergent person: *listening but also taking notes on my phone bc i remembered something i wanted to include in an assignment and write it down before i forget* teacher: *stops talking* me: *looks up confused thinking he's pulling up a presentation or something* teacher: *literally giving me a death glare* me: *points at myself confused* teacher: *mocks my gesture* you could at least listen and look up and show interest me: *still confused but calm* but i am listening, im taking notes teacher: no your not, you're typing me: i'm typing notes . . . i can do both . . . teacher: *rolls eyes and goes back to telling a story* me: *still very confused but puts phone down and looks at board, fidgeting unintentionally bc of anxiety of being called out in front of ton of other students and stress as an adhd person* teacher: *pause talking* me: *looks at him confused* teacher: do you want to leave? if you want to leave you can leave. go ahead, me: *feeling a panic attack rising and not so nice impulsive thoughts so i get up and leave* - me: *also finds out he called my vp to complain about my behaviour saying it was "ugly", when we've both been calm the entire time and ive been shaking and could barley even hear my own voice*

i honestly don't know what's wrong with him, not the first time he's made me uncomfortable and unwelcome and beneath him. i hope he's okay mentally if he needs to pick on a girl like me for whatever reason

L'ho fatto!

Ebbene sì. E per farlo si è rotto il cavo di alimentazione del computer, non mi sono ancora fatta una doccia, ho cenato con il tablet sulle ginocchia e mi sono ridotta a fare delle storie Instagram con la mia faccia e ANCHE la mia voce.

Questo è il mio Template Notion per insegnanti, maestre e maestri, in particolar modo della scuola dell'infanzia e primaria. Per farlo sono parità dalla mia esperienza personale di Notion lo scorso anno scolastico: come supplente e precaria non sempre avevo accesso al registro elettronico, non sempre avevo materiali per lavorare, non sempre potevo fare affidamento su chi avrebbe sostituito me. Ho iniziato a usare i modelli di Notion americani ma, chiaramente la scuola americana non è come quella italiana e tante cose non riuscivano a combaciare. Perciò ecco qui, il mio modello, quello che utilizzerò quest'anno quando riceverò la chiamata dalle scuole. Ve lo presento, ve lo offro e spero che possa trovare il vostro supporto.

È inutile dire che mi piacerebbe che spargeste la voce tra lɜ maestrɜ che conoscete e soprattutto tra quellɜ che potrebbero trovare utile il mio lavoro.

Hi all! If you've been following me for a while, you know that I am a high school teacher in Texas. I love my job and all that it offers me on a professional and personal level. One thing that teaching does not offer me is the kind of funding that would allow me to purchase necessary self-regulation tools, as well as extra supplies and rewards for my students. If you have a couple of bucks to spare, I have a few items listed on my Amazon Wish List that will go towards supporting my students. Love y'all!!!!!!

Scenes from Elementary School

Scene 1

Me: This is Franz Joseph Haydn.

Child: Is he George Washington?

Me: No. I just said, his name is Franz. They just lived at the same time so they dressed alike.

Child: Why are there no women presidents?

Me: That is a very long answer. But we do have our first female vice president right now.

Child: Yes. Joe Biden's Wife.

Me:....no.....

Scene 2

Child 1: You shouldn't say bad words.

Me: Who is saying bad words in the bathroom?

Child 2: Mason!

Child 2: He said the S-H word.

Me: Okay, we do not say bad words at school.

Child 3: 😈😈😈 Shit. He said shit.

Me: Yes. I understand. Please stop saying that word.

Scene 3

Me: Okay, these are your special sit spots for the rest of the year.

Kinder 1: I'm in the corner!

Me: Yes, you are.

Kinder 2: UM. THIS IS A CIRCLE CARPET. THERE ARE NO CORNERS.

Me: Right. I guess we're looking at the shape of the room, which is like a square. That has corners.

Kinder 2: 😑😑😑 Do you mean a cube?

Me:....Yes...thank you for the geometry lesson five-year-old. I do in fact mean the room is a cube.

I have a master's degree in writing and I just used my own 250-word fanfic drabble (which I wrote on my phone as a late-night Tumblr post) as an in-class example if you wanna know how it's going.

Anyway, my scariest student probably now knows my AO3 handle. Be chill if he shows up in the comments; he's most likely gonna take over the world by accident someday.

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

Trying REALLY hard to stop thinking about the email sent by a student at 9pm on Sunday night asking questions about tomorrow's test. It's taking everything I have not to reply that 1. there has been a practice task available for a week, which they haven't attempted or submitted for feedback and 2. They've had ALL WEEKEND to email me and I would've replied if they sent it earlier (and in fact did reply today to the kids who sent emails yesterday and at lunchtime today).

The only reason I am logged in on this device is because I'd needed to send something to a colleague for tomorrow by the Sunday deadline they'd set (and the device stays logged in for 24hrs). And the only reason I was doing that on a Sunday was because I had a positioning paper and lit review due tomorrow so I was up to my eyeballs in that on Friday afternoon when they sent the request (not their fault, it was given last minute to them too). And the only reason I'm on my tablet again (with my emails) is because I wanted to tell y'all how proud of myself I am that I FINISHED THE THING a day before it was due.

So, long story short; Today I finished my lit review and paper AND emailed a potential research supervisor!!! But now I'm all mad.

Besides, if I had a nickel for every time I wanted to smack a kid's parents for not teaching them even the most basic things...I'd have enough nickels to put in a sock and smack those parents with it.

So, I passed maths with a 64% total, which is great tbh, BUT, the teacher goes like "ok, the ones that didn't pass are going to make an optional extra exam that if they get 50% to up, I'll pass them." And it's like, ok,ok, definitely normal, it has always been like that, it's completely great. Now. He goes like "But the people that has passed maths... They'll have to do it too." WHAT? "If you get 30% under of grade in it, I'LL GET 0,5 OFF YOUR FINAL GRADE" WHAT???? "And if you get a good garde on it, idgaf, I'll just won't change your garde." WDYM??? WHY??? LIKE, I MEAN, I'LL STILL PASS BUT I'LL HAVE A WORSE GARDE, WTF???? WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS??? YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO!!!!!

Anyways, we told the teacher and she'll talk it out with miss principal, and see how it goes, because bitch wtf, why are you doing this to us? Get some therapy, that dude is fucking crazy, said some random excuse of it being "orders of the government from the educational math or whatever" and that he was "just a messanger "

What. The. Fuck.

As a teacher, it is guaranteed that every year you will have that ONE CLASS that makes you feel totally inept and makes you feel so stupid because their behavior is so abhorrent. I’m so stressed out. But fortunately my favorite class comes in a half hour. I am feeling blah today as it is🥴

We had a staff meeting this week where they told us we should try out a new thing called "Nurtured Heart." Basically if a student is being difficult we tell them to "reset" and then the second they do something right we praise them. This is supposed to help build relationships. I feel like I already do this, but I decided to double down and see what would happen. Here are my attempts:

Attempt 1:

Me: Oh my goodness! Thank you so much for putting the crayon box away. I didn't even ask you to do that. You are showing me that you care about our classroom by keeping it clean. Great job!

Kindergartener: *rolls up worksheet and puts it to her eye* I'm a pirate!

Me: ....So...that's a no to being nurtured then?

Attempt 2:

Me: Wow! Thank you for following my directions so quickly and correctly. I can tell that you really care about starting this game right away so we can all enjoy it together. I'm so proud of you!

1st Grader: 🤨 What are you talking about?

Me: ...So just...rejecting the nurturing. Okay. Okay.

Another school shooting in America.

I am utterly devastated.

I am an elementary school teacher.

I shouldn't be afraid to go to work.

I shouldn't have to be prepared to put my life on the line for my students --- though I would sacrifice my life for them.

I know myself and how I react to trauma. I would never recover from that and never be able to step foot in a school building again.

Are we really not willing to do anything to protect our students and our teachers? To keep teachers in the classroom?

But, we don't care about the education system in America. We don't. We don't care for the safety or the true facts of how teaching is.

I'm so tired of this.

I just want to stay in my bed and cry for the rest of the week.

But I'll get up---ready to sacrifice more of my life than I already do---and go to work. Because those kids deserve a better world.

They are the future. And I will for damn sure do my part and do the best I can to help get them on a better path than what we currently are on.
