Well, this week on Teachers Off Duty our hosts Gabe Dannenbring, Bri Richardson, and Jess Smith have a chat about the rules that they don't have to follow at school.  As teachers, we are entitled to a couple privileges, and were not just talking about free coffee in the teacher's lounge. We're talking about the rules that just don't apply to us, such as being able to check our phones in class, or taking a bit of a long bathroom break. At the end of the day teaching does have its privileges, or should these double standards be actually enforced? Tune in as we share our thoughts! While on paper it seems pretty cut and dry, we should all follow the same rules, teachers have quite a bit to deal with when it comes to the chaos of the classroom. Us teachers try to play it cool, but we all know that the overstimulation that can come with teaching can become extremely mentally taxing; so maybe teachers taking an extra ten minutes on their bathroom break is the least of our problems.    Jump right to it! 2:34 - Teacher Tardiness Tales 9:15 - Classroom Confessions 16:42 - After-Hours Teacher Antics 24:58 - Rule-Breaking Revelations 33:11 - Staff Meeting Secrets 39:47 - Debate: Classroom Chaos So don’t listen to podcasts while in the classroom because we do think that's against the rules… But if you do, make sure it's this week's episode of Teachers Off Duty. _________________________________________________ Teachers Off Duty - a Bored Teachers podcast
