I don't know how you do it!
By annie_g

I've been reading your updates regarding your ST, but this is the first time I've responded. I would have kicked her out a long time ago. I was an older ST just 5 years ago, and I would never have dreamed to pulling the kind
of stuff she is doing. I never worked so hard in my life (except, of course, for the last 4 years of having my own class) :-) That is just really low and sneaky to talk to your teammates about you and imply that your classroom management is lacking. I would be so furious that I'm sure I would let her have it. Keep documenting everything, so you can pass it all along to her supervisor.

If she actually passes student teaching, that is just plain scary.

I guess I don't really have any advice, since you certainly are handling it far better than I ever could. I'm sure you will enjoy watching her sink next week. I have to say I do enjoy reading the updates every day. It's so hard to believe that someone could get far enough in a program to student teach and be so hopelessly unfit to do so. I am sure you are looking forward to having your classroom back to yourself. Hang in there!
