  • Finally I found the Science Chat #scichat on Tuesdays and the 6th grade teacher chat  #6thchat on Thursdays.  Both of those chats were full of like-minded teachers who had some basis in what I liked and wanted to learn.  Both are moderated by some pretty incredible people who are very dedicated to helping others learn...I give them all kudos and respect.

  • Every teacher is taught that back up plans are a must.
  • 1. Computer breaks - if possible, have a laptop or netbook available for use
  • 2. Internet goes down - see computer breaks.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • smartphones
  • 3. File corrupted - have backups of your files on a backup system
  • 5. Finish lesson early - have some kind of material to work with if you finish your lesson early. Going to the next lesson doesn't always work depending on the time remaining. You could show a short video about the topic you just finished, you can have a classroom discussion about the topic, have students write a short paragraph about what they learned today (and anything that surprised them).
  • 6. Low attendance - many times there are school activities such as AP testing or class trips that can leave your class looking barren. I always have some kind of extra activity that I can do with the students that are there.
  • 7. Lesson runs long - Sometimes a lesson takes longer with one class than with another due to the student make up, discussion, or other issues that may interrupt the lesson. I try to be flexible when planning and give myself time in the plans for some classes to take longer
  • 8. Class interruptions - don't get flustered. Just come back to class and get started again. You can use the ideas above in #7 to deal with the fact that you lost class time and therefore your lesson may "run long".
  • 9. Students don't understand the material - have a different idea or method to teach the material. A video, activity, or just a different approach can be used to help the students
  • 10. Adapt and overcome - issues will happen. Just go with the flow and put your backup plan into effect.
