[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, I often wonder why teachers don't send an email when they are going to be out sick, on jury duty etc. Maybe an auto emailed response. Am I being over bearing or would it be helpful? I'm just trying to be able to help DD prepare for a day with a sub.[/quote] Are you kidding me? Your snowflake needs to prepare for a sub? You parents are wackadoos. TRULY wackadoos! [/quote] Not really. Many subs have less control of the classroom than the regular teacher. There is a long on ramp each fall to establish a functioning classroom of kids. Saying subs equal the regular teacher renders all that early process less meaningful. Some kids do benefit from knowing the teacher will be absent who best knows who gets wound up at noon or who bullies, etc. Yes parents can help in advance with at home discussions of thevday ahead. Absences are a fact known to the kids at 9 a.m. sharing the info earlier at home would help.[/quote]
