Shove it up your ass, student teacher handbook
If you are thinking....
How can I keep the students quiet? [damnit, sometimes you just want them to SHUT UP]
What should I do today? [i know they are saying that you should have long-term planning, but still, thinking "what should i do today" does not necessarily mean your lesson will suck that day]
What can I use from the teacher's edition? [ thats what the teacher's editions are for, you bastards. we're teachers, not curriculum writers]
How can I get through this period?
What can I use for busywork? [ok, thats legitimate]
Should I show a movie this period? [nothing wrong with a movie now and then, especially in social studies. ]
...You are not creating lessons for learning!
If you are creating lessons such as....
Read Chapter 2 quietly [reading isn't always bad, you know]
Complete this worksheet [again, just cause its a worksheet doesn't mean it sucks. worksheets can rock. and be conducive to student participation]
Do the problems on page 65 [thats what page 65 is there for!]
Write paragraph on___ [um, you're telling me i shouldn't ask my students to write? writing is participating.]
....You are not teaching and planning for student participation!
