Besides the paper/ copies issue, what about leveled BOOKS!!!! How in the heck am I supposed to teach reading and help the students move up levels if they don't have books to read of their level. I have been asking administration since the beginning of the school year for leveled books. I have received NOTHING. The AP and P write this request of mine in their little notebook and it is never heard of again. Now, in December, I have gone to upper grade teachers to see if their kids have moved out of books that I can now borrow. A third grade teacher has helped me out with an armful of leveled books this past week. So sad we cannot depend on the DOE or administration to cover our basic needs. We have to share among ourselves the little bit that is thrown our way.tchr33https://www.blogger.com/profile/03190226524992237618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2939758422060084114.post-1399865279709840352008-12-04T16:33:00.000-05:002008-12-04T16:33:00.000-05:00I totally feel you.

We were told the same thing about not having enough money for paper, but they still expect us to be able to do running records (even though they keep changing the running records, so the kajillion copies I made in September are now useless), etc. Plus, today we all got a memo in our mailboxes that basically said, "Make sure you keep your students quiet when they're walking in the halls" -- uh, isn't THAT a waste of paper?<BR/><BR/>Of course, it doesn't matter anyway, because the copy machine is broken.

My son is in seventh grade and we have been asked to contribute copy paper, paper towels, toilet paper (yes, you read that right), glass cleaner, hand soap, and tissues every year since pre-k. It never ceases to amaze me that public schools don't have the money for basic supplies. Teachers and children deserve so much better. I don't get it. Does anyone know why the DOE does't cover it? It seems so basic. Does the DOE not cover it, or are schools just forced to spend the supply money elsewhere?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2939758422060084114.post-18158474312984088152008-12-04T10:48:00.000-05:002008-12-04T10:48:00.000-05:00I'm sure if you ask the parents for some copy pape...I'm sure if you ask the parents for some copy paper they will just "borrow" some from their workplaces that are surely overstocked!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2939758422060084114.post-29861363212164615962008-12-03T23:58:00.000-05:002008-12-03T23:58:00.000-05:00We have a school aide who makes all copies for us ...We have a school aide who makes all copies for us (I assume because we can't be trusted with the machines ourselves). She always puts stuff on long paper when you say short or does double sided when you specifically say single sided. The worst part about her using long paper instead of short is that it ALWAYS comes out so that you have to cut from the top and bottom. Of course we have no paper cutter either. And the kicker? The one time I actually need something on long paper she says she can't because she doesn't have long paper. Grrrr!Ms. Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07155034683547876756noreply@blogger.com
