If a movie is showing in class, don't yell at kids for not getting notes down, or saying "Ahh, this part here, you should take notes, write it down!"
Why?
Your voice goes over the movie, and the kids can't hear the 'very important part.'
If kids have, say, four bathroom passes for the semester, let the kids use them. Especially if they'd normally be allowed to.
Once I had a substitute that wouldn't let kids use their bathroom passes because they "just came back from lunch."
Really, that's their problem. They wanna use it then? They can.
I know that's only two, but it's a very important two.
And, why are substitutes frequently portrayed as timid, heartfelt creatures in media?
In real life, they're the opposite.
