The last day of school is June/11 for this year. The prevailing atmosphere in the classroom is that most of the kids have already checked out.
I was asked to do a “roving sub” assignment for three of the 6th grade classes yesterday. I was brought in to work 1.5hrs in each classroom to allow the teachers additional time to catch up evaluating the “writing” ability of their students. The teachers need to complete the student writing assessments for final grades.
Each teacher I talked to before my time slot made similar comments about the kids being more talkative than usual now that they’re in the final weeks. The final classroom lesson plan even listed:
“1:50 – 2:30: Science practice book pages xxx to xxx…or just take them out to the school yard for P.E. if you feel the need to get out”
No science practice book pages completed!

I'm a sub in Nebraska who reads all your blog entries. Have a great summer, and I'll look forward to your entries in the 2010-11 school year.
The year isn't over yet. There will probably be a few more posts. Thanks for visiting!
We are out on June 15th ... and I already have a sub booking for the 11th! Subbing til the bitter end!
