Case: thinking on the spot
I teach an afterschool STEAM program at multiple schools every week. Each class we do a different project. For example this semester the theme is occupations and one of the projects was learning about Marine biologists and what they do. For the project we were to make our own plankton out of modeling clay and add to it to make it float just beneath the surface of the water like plankton does. However, I had no modeling clay in my supplies (which are packed and then delivered to be the day before I need them) so I was unprepared and had to think on the spot to change the lesson plan. I hated feeling unprepared, and the class became a lot more chaotic than when I am fully prepared for class. I confronted my boss about the lack of supplies and she said she would talk to whoever packs the materials, however, since then it has happened again. How do I go about fixing this problem?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Being flexible, is being a teacher! However, having the necessary materials is important too. I would pre-order the materials for the week before, so you are more adequately prepared, and you can make appropriate changes if necessary. Or you could order the materials yourself and take the funds being used and apply them to those materials yourself. |
