Post: Elementary Ed Major teaching Art
Posted by PA Teacher on 5/06/08
I am so happy that I am not alone. However, I have even more of a problem. My students, 4-8 do not know how to respect supplies. They throw crayons at each other. I replaced the crayons with coloring pencils. Some of the students began breaking them and throwing them at each other. I have had it with those kids. When the pencils are gone and the paper is gone, that's it. I will not replace anymore supplies with my money. BTW this is not public school, it's a charter school. Whenever I tell their classroom teacher about their behavior, they tell me I have to write it. I tell the disciplinarian and he said he will give me the forms I have to fill out and never gives them to me. I am suppose to motivate these children, but how when I am NOT an art teacher. I have little to no trouble with Pre K to grade 3, but 4 to 8 is a big headache. I am counting the days until June 20.
