[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the OP. I wasn't complaining, just asking if anyone had heard of this sort of thing before. One of the teachers will be going on maternity leave in a few months so perhaps this is a way of making sure the kids have at least one good teacher if the substitute is a dud.[/quote] And if the supposed "dud" of a substitute can't handle 25 kids, what makes anyone think she or he can handle 50? As a former teacher who team taught 24 6th grade students with one other teacher, it certainly isn't any less work. It requires delicate communication, collaboration, coordination, and patience and hard work to make this setup a success. Team teaching with a like-minded colleague is one thing, but for 50 kids? If I were a Lafayette parent, I'd be in that school tomorrow raising hell.[/quote]
