When I was in school, the computers were there. Always. No taking them home. The subs used the same ones as the teachers. And yes, while there were problems, it was never a problem that couldn't be solved by the tech people.<br /><br />I don't know how you stayed strong with the kids begging you. I guess I'm a pushover. I'd desperately want to give the kids a shot at reading out loud. I think that's why I'm not a sub. ;)Mandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00415510811585368037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925412579189247293.post-2857261089924363152016-06-03T16:54:58.840-07:002016-06-03T16:54:58.840-07:00Liz, It's funny how some kids are more coopera...Liz, It's funny how some kids are more cooperative than others. This group just wanted to whine. I remember when I was school there was usually one kid in the class that stirred trouble, but generally everyone else was pretty well behaved. If the Troublemaker didn't pipe down he/she made a trip to the Principle's office for a little talking to. lol It's great fun to read your daily journal of how you spent your day in the classroom, though. Honestly, I don't know how you do it. You must be Superwoman or something. :DCathy Kennedyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01056276734145310231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925412579189247293.post-47025258780800812392016-06-03T16:17:38.831-07:002016-06-03T16:17:38.831-07:00YupYupLiz A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16531953467834426316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925412579189247293.post-26490802098895101532016-06-03T16:17:24.201-07:002016-06-03T16:17:24.201-07:00They had a sub Wednesday.
