I've been doing some research on the "MTTC" for elementary teachers. From what i've found, many people fail it. I'll be taking it in July of this year and I'm wondering how much prep i'm going to need and HOW to prep. Thanks!!
I even have Kipling with someone someone singing GUNGA DIN
The Rep. legislature passed a bill to cut pay, kill all tenure and evaluate tchrs on the basis of test results of the children. No unions permitted by law....low pay...can be fired for any reason at any time. Forget the sunshine. This place is not where you want to be.

Just a few notes for you teachers who use substitute parapros: There are a few things really frustrating to us who sub. The worst one is, being a substitute parapro in a special ed room...and finding out there are 3 adults for 3 students--or, worse yet, FOUR adults for THREE students! This has happened to me several times. All I can do is watch the...See MoreJust a few notes for you teachers who use substitute parapros: There are a few things really frustrating to us who sub. The worst one is, being a substitute parapro in a special ed room...and finding out there are 3 adults for 3 students--or, worse yet, FOUR adults for THREE students! This has happened to me several times. All I can do is watch the clock, try to look busy, try to look like I'm really a good sub, and stew inside. Please...send me home. There are so many other things I could be doing. Pay me or don't pay me, but please don't let me suffer doing nothing!
I realize that probably the teachers can't do anything without higher approval, but if we could be busy--truly needed--in another classroom, we will feel useful.
All teachers are so different. In one special ed class, if we help the student put on his jacket or clean up her mess, we get reproved--the student should be doing it himself. But in another classroom, the teacher will let it go and welcome it. So, realize that if we don't "step forward" and do things, it's because we've had bad past experiences. Please welcome us; don't act like "yuck, I have a SUB. My day will go awful."
And one more thing--if you have two subs, and want to call one of them back for another absence--please don't do it in front of the unneeded sub. She will feel snubbed.
But--after all this--THANK YOU to the many wonderful teachers! I have met many great teachers and students, and it has renewed my trust in this generation.
Anyone get hired at the charter school job fair yesterday?
Hi, just found this site. My husband has been in a long- term subbing position (we're in the UP) since the beginning of the school year. People keep telling us that once you're there for half the year, the pay should increase to whatever the lowest paid teacher makes. Well in February they bumped him from $80/day to $100/day, but nothing else. Is i...See MoreHi, just found this site. My husband has been in a long- term subbing position (we're in the UP) since the beginning of the school year. People keep telling us that once you're there for half the year, the pay should increase to whatever the lowest paid teacher makes. Well in February they bumped him from $80/day to $100/day, but nothing else. Is it possible there's a full time teacher in our district making only $18,000? Or should I go to the district and ask some questions? We don't want to push too many buttons because there's a chance the job will be permanent, but we won't know for a while (probably not until the day before next year starts, the way schools are here). He has a "good chance" of getting the job, so of course we don't want to make anyone angry.
