more common issue?
By MissO

Ignores many behavior issues that teachers would normally correct very quickly. She just allows some things to go on and on.

Don't hate me here... you know I feel your pain about this lady... but this is one of
the areas I struggle with, even after four years of teaching. I'm continuing to learn a lot about how to observe the whole class at once, and I'm a lot better than I was during student teaching. I guess I'm saying that this may be an area that is tough for anyone who is new to teaching, and there is not a college class in the world that can truly prepare you for this.

Maybe you could

make a more mild comment about this, and save the majority of your space for those issues that should have been dealt with in class - following through on clear objectives, taking initiative (a good way to work in the lateness thing), appropriate activities, etc.
