[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They don't stay and observe specials the whole time but homeroom teachers definitely arrive early often or the specials lesson runs late. I often see homeroom teachers waiting outside the specials classrooms and peeking inside. T[b]hey also sometimes just happen to pass by especially as the layout in some schools is for those classrooms to be near the cafeteria.[/b] I was once told by an aide that I happen to know from volunteering but who does not work with DD that she observed one of the specials teachers[b] raising her voice inappropriate[/b]ly to my child and others. We looked in to it without mentioning the aide and she was correct that the specials teacher acted improperly. The aide wasn't observing the special but happened to be walking down the hallway when she overheard the commotion. The principal put in some surprise observations and confirmed that teacher was basically screaming at the kids.[/quote] If the classroom is close to the cafeteria, the door HAS to be closed or else it gets too loud. Most MCPS classroom doors have a small opening -- so unless they put their face right at the door, there is no way of seeing what's going on. Also, I am not advocating that raising the voice solves problems. However it is not up to the aide to decide if the voice was raised inappropriately or not. The aide should stick with her work instead of reporting on teachers. If indeed the teacher was very loud, she should have gone to administration.[/quote]
