I can't take the stress of not knowing when the miserable little shithead is going to come in and observe me. He still didn't write up my third, and he's got a sixth sense when teachers are having an off day and that's when he comes in. He will then claim it's not a "gotcha". <br /><br />I can see where Danielson CAN work if your administrators are fair minded people and look for the good in a lesson rather than make a point of looking for things that can be interpreted as developing. I can't take it anymore.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1628172601886929098.post-87250623081206427722015-04-18T22:51:42.186-04:002015-04-18T22:51:42.186-04:00Why be proud of being overworked forced to do 2 3 ...Why be proud of being overworked forced to do 2 3 4 5 jobs.

Fortunately, I have been recognized for a lot of this type of stuff, although in recent years none of it has found its way into my annual evaluation. Still, I have fortunately worked with a set of administrators that have been incredibly supportive, through a series of different principals and directors and superintendents. Yes, some left much to be desired (including two principals.) Thank God those individuals were on the scene for only 2 1/2 years and one year. <br /><br />The Danielson rubric is a piece of garbage. The first year I was all hyped up about it. Last year I already didn't care. This year I really do not care. Perhaps that is because I can retire in June. More likely because I have administrators that are playing the game rather than playing gotcha with their teachers. <br /><br />I plan to try and hang in there for three more years. We'll see how that does. I have 450 sick days banked.
