what does your budget say about you?

Cross-posted on Ms Beane's Brain

Budgets were due way back, and mine looked thus: 10 Flip Cameras, please. Bean bag chairs, please. Enough construction paper and Sharpies to last a year, please. And that was it!

Storyboards, a comfortable place to work, a tool to work with. If I get my wish next year will be the year of the student film.

I don't teach film-making, I teach language. But Marco Torres in… Continue

Hi Amity,

Thanks for the input on detention. I like the way you think. However, we have teachers assigned to detention and they want absolutely no contact with the students. They are to come to detention with work or a book and not speak at all. We are in our trial stages of detention and we haven't met to discuss how it's gone so far but I think this is a mandatory disciplinary action we all need to take as teachers to make sure the students know we are serious about education and providing the best to all students without distraction that gets out of control.
