  Case: No Fun in School
My principal is a firm believer in instruction from bell to bell. I teach in an elementary school and we used to have school wide celebrations for students who have met their Reading and Math goals. Now it is left up to the teacher but it has to be done during the students scheduled Activity time. I feel that some students could be more motivated if the fun was brought back to our elementary school. How do I get my principal to understand this?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Try scheduling a meeting or talking to your principal when you know he/she will be able to take the time to listen to you. You may want to bring a fellow teacher with you for support. Tell the principal what you think about the school wide celebrations in a very objective way. Present the facts to him/her. Maybe you will be able to shed some light on the topic that he/she hadn't considered, especially if other teachers agree with you.
