Different dynamic for a new year! I have comeback to the place I love to teach Mater Academy. Students are excited to learn and give 150% on most days. With the economy, I have asked for snacks and basic essentials that often go unnoticed until needed. I am filling the position as 4th grade ELA until Spring and will move back to Middle school 8th Grade Geography for the 25-26 School year. However, my current situation is a unique one. I tutor about 50 or so, 7th grade students in two 90 minute sessions 4 days a week after teaching 112-4th graders. This is my reasoning for the essentials, little things that we don't notice we need until, we do. The snack are for the after lunch groups as well as tutoring. Nothing is worse that telling a student, no when they ask if you have snacks. Thank in advance for your support.
