The Children’s Cultural Center of Native America offers an exciting two and a half hour interactive workshop focusing on the Indigenous Americans who once inhabited New York City and the New York Metro area. Children dress in traditional Native regalia and experience a day in the life of a young Lenape boy or girl before European contact. Our staff of Indigenous cultural interpreters will help students understand about today’s Native People too.
A puppet show highlights Native children living in today’s world but not forgetting their Native cultural heritage. Your curriculum will come to life during a morning of authentic cultural learning.
The Children’s Cultural Center of Native America has been featured in several publications including the New York Daily News. The program is designed for K-6th graders and is approved as a learning program and field trip by the New York City Department of Education.
Don’t miss out on the premier Indigenous learning workshop in New York City! Rates: Children: $8.00 Parents: $6.00 School Staff: Free
Note: We are an organization that understands financial difficulties; if the fee seems too high we may be able to negotiate. We believe all children should have the opportunity to attend this educational and enjoyable event!

She is a younger teacher(4 years) who has been doing less and less each year. She comes as late as possible and leaves as early as possible without taking work home. She has students who need to be assessed for special services, but she doesn't want to take time to fill out paperwork on them. The aide tells me that she isn't teaching and helping the students. She just sits at her desk and is on the computer while the aide is the one walking around to help students. She has even said that she wishes she could stay at home and not have to work. The problem is that many extra duties get thrown to me because they don't want to ask her to do more. She gets extra aide time to do copying and other little things and then she doesn't have to take things home. It's getting to the point that I don't even want to be there because she isn't pulling her weight. I even had a parent of one of her students come up and say that they wished their child would have been placed in my room instead of hers because I am better at helping kids that need it(her kid is ELL and her older child was in that same teacher's classroom). What do I do? I feel as though I should tell the principal what is going on, but I don't want to "tattle". And even if I did I don't think she would do anything about it. She's very much "don't rock the boat". Am I just being too big of a whiner, or am I justified in being upset?

We are a K-8 school and several teachers team teach in grades 3-8 or they teach the same subject to, say 5th and 6th, for example.
Our principal is now considering the possibility of doing it in the lower grades. She believes I am the strongest in literacy, so if this came about, I would teach reading/writing to K-2.

Our principal is now considering the possibility of doing it in the lower grades. She believes I am the strongest in literacy, so if this came about, I would teach reading/writing to K-2. Does anyone actually do this? If so, how does it work? I really can't imagine it at this point. We have one teacher per grade, 14-22 students in each.
thanks for your input, wondering
I need to get some dictionaries for my second grade class. Do you have any recommendations?
I am looking for a fun experiment type activity to do with my 2nd graders...any ideas?!
Help, Please, I have been teaching for a week and a half and I want to quit my job already.

At my new school, there is only restorative practices and I was assured before I started I had good kids, no assertive discipline, no time outs, no child is allowed to be kept in at lunch time, no child is sent into a different class. Step 1 you ask them to reconsider their behavior, step two you write a note in their diary to their parents, um what happens when the kids know that their parents do not bother reading diaries, or their is one child who is yelled at soo much at home they don't care what's written in their diary. Hell. I am there.
I am finding my mentor teacher who I also have an open classroom with really domineering, I have no say in anything and she keeps getting angry at me, after four days with the children she told me that all the parents know I have no behavioral control. I came home and cried.
One of these students when I have asked for help from other teachers I seriously see their eyes glaze over and one even clutched her heart and said ' he is not coming into my class'. Today I also found out that the grade one teachers did not put these kids together last year, but with a few weeks left of making the classes the grade 2 teachers, they changed the classes and gave me two students and took one student, that's how I got them.
I do not want to return to school Monday, please help!
Could someone please email me a valentine no homework coupon? I would really appreciate it. My email is [email removed]
