Tuesday...I mean Thursday Tutoring
Tuesday tutoring was canceled because the Worlds Worst Teacher's class went on a field trip so I had to make up my time today. Fortunately, I got the "go to the hall and read" reprieve. Yes! We were reading a book about baseball and there were whole lot of words and concepts these kids had never heard of -- after we finished reading, I had to go over all the weird words and concepts so they would get the gist of the story and then reread the story. After reading, we played math games for 45 minutes so there wasn't too much teacher screeching today, thank God because I don't think I can take much more of the WWT. Next week I'll be done, finally.
I have to write a reflection for my American Public Schools class about my observation/tutoring experience. It's only supposed to be one page; I'm going to have a really hard time condensing my 20 hours of 2nd grade hell into one page.

Any way you can get it extended? They need to know!
Just write " the teacher sucks" and leave it at that..
Here's the problem...she REALLY does need some help. I have to take a reading class next semester and I need to find a student to tutor. I think I'm going to take her very worst reader and tutor him. I know if kids are not reading by third grade more than likely they will never be reading especially boys.
Happy- That is the BEST advice ever! That would really cut down on B.S. policially correct teacher talk.
That is really sweet of you. The kids shouldn't have to suffer long-term damage from one bad teacher.
