I need to find someone who is currently working as a general education teacher with at least three years experiences. The interview will be 10 questions in text and it is for my class.
Thank you!
Here are the 10 questions in case you are wondering what the questions looked like.
1. how long have you been teaching?
2. what is the key to being a good teacher?
3. what are most common accommodations and modifications have you used?
4. what are some of the more uncommon accommodations and modifications have you used?
5. Did you ever have co-teacher in your classroom?
6. If you have co-teacher then how do you work or get along with that person?
7. How do you prepare to write IEP for a student or have you?
8. What types of assessments have you used?
9. What are the biggest challenges you have faced in a classroom?
10. What are biggest successes you had in the classroom?
New to this forum and hope to get some important, insightful information. I have taught 20 years in the HS classroom, but recently looking into teaching Middle school. Any advice? I have also entertained the idea of teaching in the elementary grade level, but my focus is mostly on the MS classroom.
What do middle school teachers enjoy more Panera or Starbucks? I am looking to get gift cards for my son's teachers and I'm not sure which way to go... Panera or Starbucks?
I am helping a teacher acquire some books (as a gift for another teacher who teaches Language Arts) for 7th and 8th graders, primarily any written by Latino or African American authors. These books would go into the teacher's classroom library. I would so welcome any titles and authors' names, please. Thank you so much,

I am a new teacher and need ideas on how everyone teaches history and science vocabulary words. What ways do you motivate them to do their homework or study these words? Do you allow any of it to be an easy daily grade or "give me" daily grade as a reward for those that complete the assignments? Let them use notes etc on tests? Brain Dumps? Etc?
My district just purchased this series. I have not had a social studies text for the last 7 years, so I'm looking for pros, cons, how you use it, what you like, what you don't like, etc. Thanks so much!
The kids had to a lot of the work at home(doing the actual experiment, collecting the materials needed for the display and doing the finishing touches on the display), but there was a lot of research done at school. They kept all their research on a computer that the kids had access to at home. The science teacher was overseeing the project so there was less parent doing the work. There was a huge discrepancy between the final results of various projects. There were the ones that had titles so technical a regular person had no clue to very simple ideas but related to a student's interest like what is the best choice of cat food for a pet.
I have a lot of experience with visual presentations and it was easy to see which presentations were done totally by an 11 year old and which ones had adult help.
Maybe the final grade could be on the projects that met all the criteria and less on the presentation. If kids come from a home with all the resources because parents can afford them, it doesn't seem fair to those kids who can't afford press on letters, etc
Personally, as a parent, I have experiences with both doing it all at home(yuck) and doing it all in clasd(obviously preferred ). Seems like the blending of the two might be the most fair way.
There is no way the parent issue can be dealt with 100% and, actually, I do not mind that the parent is interested and wants their child to do their best. What I have done, in some cases, with 6th grade in particular, is we have done science experiments, in class, together and then I permit them to do their own, following the model and method I show them. They don't even realize they are doing a potential "science fair project" until the whole thing is completed because I carefully avoid use of the term until we finis. One year our school took awards in 5 out of 6 categories at our school system science fair, when I did this. I am not big into "winning" as I think just completing a well done ;project aka experiment is the most important thing.
