Just
because you have information about something, does not mean you are responsible
for disseminating it without thinking of the consequences. This substitute
teacher found out the hard way recently after being fired from her job after disclosing
the "truth" about Santa Claus.
"Santa Claus & Easter Bunny" issues are sensitive subjects
especially in the lower grades. I had to handle a similar situation a couple
years ago in a 2nd grade classroom.
Even
if the kids are insistent to know the truth, it should
come from a parent. Even then, the youngster might not be quite ready.
nice article, worth reading, thanks for share

ReplyDeleteSomething to think about.
ReplyDeleteHi, I'm a preservice teacher.
ReplyDeleteI thought this was a great read. Iv'e never though about teachers getting fired for saying things of this nature before. I will have to be extra careful when I'm a real Teacher!
