  Case: Youtube Videos
Our school has a policy against watching NetFlix or YouTube videos; yet, the teacher next door to me is always showing her students them. They are sometimes related to content standards but sometimes it is just to keep the students busy. We are both on the same grade level and are both first-year teachers. What should I do? Should I say something to her that we have all heard several times or tell my team leader?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Having a direct conversation with the teacher could help you gather more information about your concern to better determine your path. During planning meeting you can discuss the use of media in the classroom and state that certain websites are not allowed. It would also be beneficial to provide an alternative option so that the teachers lessons are not hindered.
