When kids ask (complain), "Why do I have to go to school??" here's what you tell them... (Teachers, please share THE LINK with students' parents, too!)
Do Catholic School teachers put into Social Security? Most Illinois public schools do not. I am a retired teacher from Kentucky. We don't put into Social Security but we also can not collect on our husband's or wive's Social Security when we retire or if they die because of the WEP and GPO offset provision.
The endless laughter that once echoed from elementary school playgrounds has unfortunately turned into silence. [Click below to read about how playgrounds have become silent entities in many schools and why recess should be part of the school day.]
MyGradebook was reacquired by her Founders last August, They improved her software, added some features, dropped the price to $29.95 (or less) for 1 yr. teacher license, and they created a support staff of former teachers that had used MyGradebook.
MyGradebook is a full featured gradebook , you can use her on any pc with internet, you can email parents and students, she still has a 15000 quiz library or you can make or add your quizzes too.
So if you are looking for a new gradebook thinking she was gone, she's not. Please share the news, we appreciate you!
Could anyone direct me to a place to read sample letters of recommendation for a first grader to get into another school? As the child's teacher, I've been asked to write a letter recommending this student to the new school. Thanks so much for your help!
LeahYou start by stating that you have been the child's teacher for X months. Then state a few positives like the child is enthusiastic, etc. Then state strengths and areas of weakness that you have observed.

I am a retired math teacher, a Christian, and have been creating and publishing Bible math puzzles for about 12 years.
When solved, the puzzles yield an answer from the New Testament.
Most of my monthly recipients are day school Christian teachers in the USA and other countries. Also, recipients are Sunday school teachers, churches, and chaplains.
If you are interested in reviewing some sample puzzles for possible use with your students, contact me and I will send some to you. The puzzles will come as attachments to my follow-up e-mail.
The puzzles are entitled The Bible Learning Challenger.
Again, the puzzles are absolutely free to teacher recipients.
I signed my contract today. The k4 teacher was let go due to low enrollment for her class. The 1st grade and 2nd are leaving for personal reasons. We think the science teacher will not be renewed. The principal said today that she could offer only 6 contracts now. This whole mess stinks!
If you do end up teaching a double grade, I wouldn't try teaching both science and social studies curriculums but find a happy medium. That's what we did.
