Already happened. Remember "Why should teachers get paid more when they only work 9 months a year?"
Really hope GOP becomes anti-teacher now
Already happened. Remember "Why should teachers get paid more when they only work 9 months a year?"
Also “those cheapy peepy teachers are expecting us to buy their work supplies? Buy them yourself!”
91/2 months, are you kidding? I literally just talked to the English teacher living down the street and she and her husband (Fireman 3 days off and on) are grading papers this weekend! 180 papers to grade. Say it's only 10 minutes per paper, you do the math!
Money for AP? Never directly to the teacher. And they cut off the $for high AP scores that would go for supplies. Tutoring, that's a joke. You can't tutor your own students for money. Tutoring is available for 15 $ an hr, but you tutor a classroom full after school! Sponsoring clubs? Hah, totally voluntary. I'm glad I live next to a teacher AND volunteer in the summer so this BS above does not get portrayed improperly. Florida and Texas are different I guess. And district to district is different. This is from a really good district if you live in the N side of SA.
The 91/2 months is the most ridiculous of all, especially for some subjects. A total joke.
And now, let's arm them. English teachers unite to bear arms. I want a worn down soul to protect the school. Maybe the will rampage and kill the falsified glamor mongering among some conservatives.

Brutal... I'm sure she's not alone in feeling that way after speaking with Trump. And the nerve to call up a shooting victim and say "I heard you were a fan of mine" or something to that effect... Sounds exactly like Trump.
Truth hurts brah. I know, I know tl/dr. It's cool![]()
So you're saying an english teacher near you spends 30 hours a weekend grading papers, 15 hours a day?
I call bull .
I guess it is very different in TX and FL (just like homeschooling in CA is so different from FL) - keep in mind that we are the 4th largest school system so lots of resources/funds. As far as tutoring, people with teaching certificates can tutor through our library system for $34 per hour.

Really, you are telling me that if you are one of those teachers/coaches in there for that 4-6 minutes, you wouldn't prefer to have a gun than nothing? You guys must be so much more principled (beliefs on gun control) than I am - I guess I'm much more self preservative (is that a word?) than you all.
BTW, if you ever need elementary math resources, I highly recommend Singapore Math - my favorite curriculum. So basic but so conceptual (love their bar system).

Parkland shooting survivor's family shops doctored emails with CNN to media outlets
http://www.businessinsider.com/parkl...18-2?r=UK&IR=T
CNN was going to let him ask his original question, just not give a 4 page speech. He then refused and his family sent out doctored emails to create a fake controversy. So who is the crisis actor here? Who is the one being coached here?
The #1 thing they could do to stop mass shootings is to quit publishing the shooters name, photo, and biography from childhood. These sick s want the "glory" that they cant get any other way and we gratefully give it to them.
This is just another hypothetical, in my opinion. There is no data or study to suggest making these killers anonymous would reduce mass killings. You could just as easily support the theory that public shaming towards them and their families serves as a deterrent. We don't know.
Other Western countries have eliminated this issue. Why are we so stubborn in our resistance to mirroring their policies?
Well you can take your BS away. Another conservative shut in. And it's not this 1 weekend to finish the grading, they need to knock out a big bunch, so it's a family "party" DMC.
Its a term paper required. I asked them what they do on the other papers. Short, they read the general thought pattern without looking for grammar. They let students grade each other's while instructing how to grade it. Papers that are basically the same like rewrite this claim assignment fix the errors.
This is the conservative mindset on display right here. A teacher can't possibly be creative otherwise they would never teach. And, I'm gonna make a claim without any interaction with an actual human being. Hows that for calling BS DMC? I'm gonna claim BS right back at you at make generalizations about your head, or lack thereof.
Im sure there are some teachers in every campus that would bask in the glory of the job. Not all teaching assignments are created equal. Some have a huge amount of downtime. That's why science teachers get paid a bit more and a masters get paid a bit more. Realize I live in the district, help with extra programs in the summer, and have a good friend just getting a hold of teaching physics and an English teacher down the street as a neighbor. So I'm not in total authority, but I have a bad habit of asking a lot of questions on things I feel strongly about. My public HS education vaulted me up. Made life very easy for me, I'm very lucky.very. So I wish the same for others.
And I have actually heard of that math method. When I first helped some kids in Math camp during the summer this was suggested. I will say actually sitting down and seeing the errors that I never would have guessed a student would make is the most important. Some is flat out fear of symbols I discovered. Or the math books actually using the same symbol in a different way, I would never foreseen this until I witnessed it and asked questions. I appreciate your passion. We have things in common.
ex x(y) = 5(y)+ y^2 The student read this as X times y equals 5 times y plus y squared!
Not X as a function of y. And then function totally confused them so I just said the right hand part of the equals sign is a machine that you can feed different numbers into the y's, and it will spit out results called X. So we say X output depends on what y's you feed it. Try "feeding" the right side different y's starting with zero, 1, 2... (And rule, you have to use the same y in both parts, for the 5 and the squared part) Then try feeding in negative y's. Then try feeding it fractions as y (a doozy because now you get into the difference between multiplying and adding fractions).
But I had the time to fully dissect one student's problems. Imagine 180 in a day 6 different times. No F'N way.
If you care ,rmt, you will read this in its entirety.

That's the #1 thing?
How about ruining innocent people lives posting photoshoped lies about crisis actors, some basement that doesn't exist? then you have some loons acting on it.
You gave one weekend, 180 papers, 10 minutes each.
"she and her husband (Fireman 3 days off and on) are grading papers this weekend! 180 papers to grade. Say it's only 10 minutes per paper, you do the math!"
If you want to spread that out over several weekends, your point looses any real bite.
I have to agree with CC for the most part. What you are saying is also correct, but has nothing to with deterring mass shootings. These people are looking for notoriety in many cases (but not all). The SA shooter was looking for revenge, but he got his idea probably from the movie "Rampage" as did many of these people. I get the idea of at least saying who the shooter was, but media sites go into long detail about everything this person ever did or said. The victims are probably unknown to anyone here, even by name, but the shooter is famous even if for a ty reason.
Yeah I've pretty much settled on the notion that you're not playing with a full deck now.
yeah, I’m sure the false flag nutjobs will act responsibly and reasonably if the shooter’s iden y is hidden.
This is actually pretty good
Without googling it, what’s the name of the shooter who gunned down the congregation in the south Texas church, or the dude who shot of the Florida nightclub, or the guy who shot up the Jason Aldene concert? I couldn’t tell you any of them without looking them up. They’re not famous. I know Dylan Roof and James Holmes but that’s because they lived and I followed their trials.
