I simply wanted to let the original p...See MoreI didn't feel the need to address the job situation. I DO feel incredibly bad for individuals who are waiting for positions, and I DO understand how difficult it is to get a position. But these issues have been addressed on this forum time and time again in the three or four years I have been visiting.
I simply wanted to let the original poster know that no teaching job will "pay for our education" as he or she seems to assume will happen, which is a secondary interpretation of his or her original question.
But, making snide comments at people who do hold teaching positions and would love to help people find jobs is really working to your benefit, isn't it?

Our fifth grade team is shocked and disappointed over our low preliminary Ohio Achievment Assessment scores:( We worked very hard this year - Reading Study Island, Ohio Coach Workbook, practice tests, grouping by ability levels for various standards, review games, etc. Any helpful strategies would be greatly appreciated!

On 6/29/10, Di wrote: > > Haven't seen our scores yet, but...See MoreHave you looked at the % of reading questions the fifth graders have to pass for proficiency? Compare it to 6th, & 7th, grade. The fifth graders %'s are higher. Can anyone explain this? Our fifth graders barely passed their reading test. What do you think about the math?

I'm an American now living and teaching screenwriting & filmmaking in Vancouver.
My new primer, FILMMAKING WIZARDRY is available for teachers wanting to introduce filmmaking into their classrooms this fall. The book is a step-by-step guide to the filmmaking process, with lots of check lists and links to broaden your knowledge of the craft.
And, there's a special discount for teachers who buy in bulk too, so you can share the book with your students OR use it as a fund-raiser for your school!
Introduce some creative chaos to your classroom this fall and have FUN!
I'm looking for information about employment at virtual schools. I'm considering applying for a teaching position and would like to know about the salary, hiring process, and teacher satisfaction. Any information would be appreciated.
Hi, I am currently organizing a postcard exchange project for the 2010-2011 school year. (In case you don't know what this is, it is a chance for you to share really cool facts about your state with the 49 other states. You also get to learn about 49 other states and classrooms because you will in return get a postcard from each of the other states...See MoreHi, I am currently organizing a postcard exchange project for the 2010-2011 school year. (In case you don't know what this is, it is a chance for you to share really cool facts about your state with the 49 other states. You also get to learn about 49 other states and classrooms because you will in return get a postcard from each of the other states.) Great geography lesson! This year, we won't be starting this project until January 2011. Many people had a hard time getting started at the beginning of the school year last year. We had a really successful turnout though. I am just filling slots for the teachers who haven't reponded back that they want to participate again. I will be providing a lot of information and ideas to you as soon as the slots have all been filled. If you are interested in committing to this project, please email me and give me your full name, school name, school address, grade you teach, and an email address that you check frequently. I will respond back to you. Once you are on board, you will need to get 49 state postcards for the project. Start looking now!! Some have a hard time finding the postcards. You can also make your own at Vistaprint.com.
I also am organizing a leaf exchange project starting in October 2010. If you are interested in this project let me know and I will write your information down and get back to you as soon as I have at least 30 participants. You will need to think of at least three different types of trees that you could use. In a snipit, you would press enough leaves for at least 30 participants and then glue each one on a 6x6 card, which will need to be laminated and labled with both the tree name and state it comes from. More details to come. Please email if you are a serious participant. Thanks
