  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 standard but sometimes it is just to keep the students busy. We are just on the same grade level and are both first year teachers. What should I do? Say something to her that we have all heard several times or tell my team leader?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I do believe that you should go directly to the teacher to speak to her about this. I can't tell if you personally have witnessed her using them or if it's through the students that you've heard, though. If you have already spoken to her about it once, then I would mention it to an Assistant Principal. Maybe the other new teacher is struggling in her first year and is using them as a coping mechanism on days that she is having a hard time. They (administration) could offer her some help if that's the case.
